Firstly, welcome mate, and don't be ashamed of your car being a UZZ31 Limited! I spend more time with mine than I do with my girlfriend.

Answering your question: basically, covers are in place so dirt and moisture can't get it and ruin all your nice circuitry, so I'd be grabbing one from somewhere ASAP. My place is a dust bowl so I'd be so pissed off if I was missing a bunch of covers, but luckily my Soarer was fastidiously maintained. I even scored the cover for the positive battery terminal, a rarity in it's own right. So many battery joints lose them on your behalf and don't bother to replace it.

I agree with Rob and Mike - crush that pod filter into a tiny ball and kick it around on the ground. Get a standard airbox and make a BFI. If you're scared of the BFI, don't be, it's a great mod. I only did mine a while ago and I'm so pleased with the difference. Better economy, more beef, and an improved exhaust note.

Honestly, if you only want to do a Stage 1 BFI, it's plenty - and costs you four fifths of fcuk all. It's reversible too - if you want to sell the car, just get another air box.

So get the hacksaw blade out!

No takers at auction I see. Probably a bit on the expensive side given its condition.

Thanks for that Glen, now to find one.
Will have to look for a standard airbox aswell.

Yeah, i didn't think i would sell for that price. But it never hurts, you may just get someone. Just wanted to test.
Steve, what do you mean probably a bit on the expensive side given its condition?

Thanks

Professionally detailed both interior and exterior?

I always thought that the car was in immaculate condition compared to many others.
I guess not.

dont get me wrong mate, its a decent looking car but you just cant beat a freshly polished Soarer and a nice clean interior.

There are clean cars and there are POLISHED cars... you want to be later if you want to get a good price for you ride.

You would be suprised at how much crap comes out of the carpet, seats and roof after a decent shampoo.
