No worries mate, yeah at least some clutter has been inadvertently removed anyway!

I got a few things done on my car today.
 
- I replaced my blown reverse light, which many people kept telling me about. 
 
- I did an oil change, for the first time on my own since I got the engine rebuilt about 5000km ago, but I bought the wrong oil filter so I'll have to go back and get the right one tomorrow. It was relatively easy to do the oil change with my remote oil filter setup under the car! The only hard part was fitting myself under the car. Next time I'll try to find something to put under the hydraulic jack to increase the overall height. I have jack stands too of course.
 
- I made a heat shield for my ECU.

Nice idea. I'm considering doing that to try eliminate the interference from my MSD wires to my PFC speed output.

If you want to eliminate electrical interference, have you tried using shielded cabling instead of normal wire? Microphone/audio cable is good, that's what my ECU loom uses for all sensitive signals.
Also, simply re-routing the wire further away from the interference source will help.

These puppies should be arriving any day now according to Dylan!
I'll be in China for a week from next Friday, so I probably won't get a chance to fit them properly before then, but hopefully I get a chance to at least do a quick test fit to see if spacers are required or whatever.
 

 

They even look like the real thing!

If they didn't have centre caps, I'd be thinking they're Meisters....lol

The most obvious difference with the Meisters and SSR Professors compared to these rims, is the fact that the face of the rim doesn't step inwards around the lug nut holes, if that makes sense.
When I noticed that difference, I realised why they look noticeably different despite the similar spoke shape.
