Thanks mates. You should check. Most of the bushes I have changed on my car up to now are nakere. It makes a big difference to the driving once you fit new.

Right time to change oil. Up to know I have been using Motul 300V but I found out lately that this type of oil does not have detergency and leaves impurities at each drain. So after some research I switched to Torco SR-1 oil, which is a performance fully synthetic oil specified for modified-tunned cars.

I would like to note I have been using the Motul 300V oil for 3 years and never had any type of problems, but just for precautions and to be at the safe side I decided to change brand.

Here is a new small toy I got from my mechanic. It is an oil cooler from a Lexus RH400h. I am thinking to swap my small Mocal oil cooler with this one and use the other for the steering oil line. The only thing that I do not know is how much the oil pressure will drop with the larger cooler.

Nice. Is it easy to get hold of?

Have you got a link for it, could be useful for other members with chargers.

Thinking to buy a ZERO-1000 Fuel Power NEO magnet. Does anyone know if it is worth installing this small part? Has anyone used it? Very popular on Honda engine tuning and generally in JDM cars.

What does this part do (maybe a stupid question)

Lexuspat What does this part do (maybe a stupid question)

"The ZERO-1000 Fuel Power NEO - Professional is a universal item that connects to any 12mm~14mm gasoline or diesel fuel line. Any car can take advantage of this truly amazing piece of Japanese technology!! Inside the Power NEO is a focused patent pending Japanese NEODYMIUM Magnet which works by magnetically charging and rearranging the fuel molecules (by breaking the clusters) before it mixed with air and injected in the combustion chamber.

The item is an excellent addition for those who want to keep there vehicle and fend off rising gas prices. With hi-octane gasoline at many parts of the world reaching close to $3.00 and experts forecast prices to reach up to $4.00 in the near future (according to CNN) you may second doubt your current ride. However, the Power Neo will allow you to increase performance while saving valuable gasoline and pay for itself in approximately 4 months. (based on $3.00 a gallon gas filling up once a week on a 15 gallon tank with fuel economy based at 20%)

On the inside of the NEO, the magnetic force measures 300mT (505mT for Neo Professional) and cuts down to under 5 mT on the outside. Be aware of cheap Chinese copy-cat companies (SAGE Racing, Maximum Velocity Fuel Charger, etc) who use similar packaging and design. The items may appear similar however the magnetic force on these measure less than 2/5th`s (179mT SAGE Racing) of the TOP-Fuel Power Neo. In addition, the magnetic force is not focused in towards the fuel line on the inside alone on GENERIC units which measure close to the same on what is on the inside of the unit. The Power NEO is a specially designed item that focuses all of the magnetic force to the fuel line.

Installation time should take approximately 30 minutes and no modifications are needed to use the item. Just find your fuel line under the hood and clamp this on it. Completely stock to highly modified engines can benefit from this item."
