The rear brakes look nice 1of120. Did you use the same color caliper paint for the rotors? I wish I did that because my crappy autozone rotors rusted after the first site of rain.
Thank you. Yes I used the same paint for the rotors and calipers. I had to learn the hard way too from the fronts. I had my fronts from napa on for about a month or two until they started rusting and had to paint them. So before I mounted the rears, I made sure that was taken care of first.
Pulled her in the garage after a fresh wash and getting ready for a wax job....completed oil change and pulled all 4 wheels off to give them a thorough cleaning as they had 20 yrs of road grime on them.
I cleaned up a 1985 Celica W58 crossmember I'm using for my R154 swap. Soon to be sandblasted and repainted. New blank Supra TT rear rotors finally came in along with more small R154 parts. Bit by bit.
Detailed the interior, which consisted of a quick vacume, dusting with a wet microfiber towel and paintbrush, and cleaning the windows. Also washed the outside.
Decided to treat a small portion of the rear seat with some leatherique product I recently purchased. Right now the cleaner/rejuvinator is "penetrating" the leather to moisten/rejuvinate it. I'll do the 2nd step tommorrow as you are supposed to let the 1st chemical soak in, then go in with the 2nd chemical. I've seen this stuff work wonders on an early 90's Bentley Mulzanne with dry/hard leather, so we'll see. Really the only place where the leather is bad on my car is on the top of the rear seat, its rock hard and dried out there.
