stupid ****s whoever it was, ill find out, it had to be someoen who was at the party i was at last night, but anyways the scratches are about 30cm long on the bonnet (3 of them) and they're like three small white lines make up the one scratch so it was a key or something similar on an angle, but the scratches can only be seen at certain angles, i trieds rubbing them but that did nothing, how caqn i fix them ? they are not verfy deep at all just annoying coz i just had my bonnet re-sprayed :) the car is black

Man that sucks.

Jealous people, that's all it is... :) :)

Mcquires sells stuff called ScratchX or something like that. Apparently it's really good for taking scratches and swirl marks out of black paint.

Either that or give the bonnet a good buff will a buffer.

Failing that, find the little dweeb that did it and polish your bonnet with his face .....

Meguiar's stuff will work best, recently a fat ****ing cat somehow was on my bonnet and boy did it have claws, medium scratches but you can still see them from some angles, but was bored so redone the hole bonnet with Meguiar's stuff form , Cleaner, Polish,wax...etc etc...but yah it's better but not perfect.

Just depends how bad they are. What are did this happen anyways??

??????????/

one of them can always be seen and is white (paint has come off) and the others cant be seen at some angles, is it true i need black polish to keep the original shine of the paint ? as i tried standard cut and polish on another scratch that came on the car last week and the paint has gone dull where i did it

      Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching

      Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.

      Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.
