What have you done to your car today?

My "Lifetime DISA valves" turned up from the US - £60 in import duty.... They feel good quality- billet pin, drain plug, etc so they should last. I'm going to fit the top one myself tomorrow. Might tackle the lower one if I get chance but from what I understand, it's mostly the top, larger one that goes (mine definitely has! It's currently a DISA flap).

Just gonna dig behind the sofa to see I've got any pocket change for these: OEM 19" CSL wheels

Lifetime DISA spec (n52parts.com):
  • Single Piece Billet Aluminum Rotating Pins with Torx shaped key
  • 3D Printed PAHT-CF High Temperature Resistant Flaps
  • Torx shaped axis slotted through entire flap. Impossible to round out!
  • OEM style Flap turbulence grid
  • 5mm drain plug in the event of oil intrusion
  • Fully assembled using Aftermarket DISA electronics / shells
  • Hand assembled with high temperature resistant lubricant on all moving parts

Looks good quality - my DISA (likely the original but in good shape) partially closes with my thumb over the hole creating a vacuum. Hopefully that’s fairly normal, otherwise I’ll be ordering these too - would be interested to hear how these ones behave fresh out the box with the same little test?
 
Which hole? I can't quite work out what ya mean. Out of the box, the flap is very fixed. Hardly any play in it at all and no sign of any hole other than the oil drain hole they've put into these.
 
Had all the suspension, springs, bushes and front arms done - feels MUCH better - particularly at speed. Ride is slightly firmer (now on M Sport spec stuff as per factory spec) and with the 19" CSL's (only recently fitted) but for my purposes (weekend hooning / 2nd car), much better. A few more interior rattles now present themselves but I've got some of that anti-rattle tape to install this weekend (if the weather holds).

Also had braided brake lines (mainly 'cos existing ones were crusty) - no noticeable difference before and after.

Alignment to be done next.
