Default Cleaned my engine bay

Got a Hold of some Gunk engine degreaser today, considering I'm in little old New Zealand I just about jumped for joy when I found this stuff. Its bloody amazing!!!!!!

Followed the directions and things came out great, sorry I don't have a before photo.



Also fitted my Skunk2 gearknob and Field SFC vtec controller

I sprayed it on and waited 15 minutes then gently hosed it off. Sprayed all the plastic and rubber parts with silicon then used a rag to wipe it down so it didn't look all greasy.

I've only just put the motor in and want to keep it looking like this for a long long time!!! I tried some stuff called chemtech gutsy degreaser but that was a bit nasty to my polished intake pipe and ali oil cap.

Lol yeah I'm a nancy bugger but with the size of the steering wheel I'd die without it. The exterior is Flat black with red brake calipers. Nothing special at the moment. In the future it will be repainted and lowered on Tein Superstreets Volk TE37's
