    Its actually a coloured coating on top of the plastic that goes bad I removed all mine with bug and tar remover, its standard grey plastic underneath, can be primed and painted easily
  2. junkie
    exactly the same process yeah. the clear coat is some special stuff that sticks to plastic without primer and has built in UV blocking ability
  3. junkie
    All these products are great but without some kind of UV protection the problem will be back, and faster than before, since all the sanding and polishing has now left bare plastic with zero protection there are a couple of kits with spray on clear coat, i'm testing one now

    damn, R34's dont get any better than that but those tyres... i had a set of 14 year old tyres that looked brand new due to lack of use, but were downright dangerous in some situations, not to mention hard and noisy

    tyvec car covers are great. just give the car a wipe with quick detailer and microfibre cloth before putting the cover on - keep the car and the inside of the cover clean, will never have an issue with scratching

    autosol metal polish applied with 000 grade steel wool should do the trick

    may be worth checking the tyres before replacing the bearings my s14 had worn bearing sound from the back, turned out to be dried out crappy old tyres, the noise is totally gone now with a fresh set of rubber

    Costco towels tend to lose their softness and leave a lot of lint after being washed a couple of times. Good for general purpose use but I use better quality towels for wax removal. My Meguairs cloths that are still going strong, probably around 10 years old now

    Most V series cars have dropped heaps The focus is now on all the R cars thanks to the GT-R's going up in value My 35 would be lucky to get 5k now

    Even GTSt and GT-t models are starting to creep up, trying to jump on the GT-R price rise bandwagon Carsales have a few R34 non-turbo 25GT for 14-20k, auto R33 GTSt for 15k, and turbo R34 Gt-t are in the low to mid 20's all of a sudden (one dealer wants 30 for a "low" km car) and then theres this... http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-Skyline-1994/SSE-AD-2765592/?Cr=393 and this one, ready to ship to usa http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-Skyline-1998/SSE-AD-148104/?Cr=421

    Prob similar to a 34. Bunch of clips under the windscreen, maybe 6 in total that need a decent tug. I pulled the outer edges up first then worked my way in, one clip at a time

    Check charging voltage at the terminals, should be under 14.6. Electrolyte level should be about 1cm above the lead plates, and not touch the bottom edge of the filling tube.

    Vinyl has gone hard by the looks of it, I always use non silicone dash protectants and yet to have a cracking issue. But, hard to say how much the dressing actually helps, maybe I've just been lucky
  23. junkie
    Heat gun should work on the scratches. But may cause more damage if not done with care... The seat needs a wet extraction vac, those carpet cleaners that you can hire from supermarkets work fine

    15k my butt...
