if you are a member of www.offtopic.com, head over to their "That'll buff right out" section and have a read of some of the product reviews the guys there give (There are a fair few professional detailers in that forum, who do FANTASTIC work... main one is ScottWax)

Try AutoGlym Ultra Deep Shine. Based on their Super Resin Polish, it does a friggin awesome job especially on darker coloured cars. AutoGlym is made in the UK, and I can highly recommend their whole range of car care products :D

Havent used the New tech wax ( I assume thats from the NXT generation range?) but ive been using their products for a fair few years until recently......

Switched to Zaino, the difference is amazing. Cost is a little higher but the results are jaw dropping.

Well I have used the Meguiars NXT generation tech wax stuff, and it is easily the best product I have ever used personally. My car is dark blue but it is very bright underneath - you can only really see this in sunlight or under certain lights.

My paint job was very neglected when the car arrived from Japan over a year ago, and I have tried so many different things on it that it wasn't funny. But this stuff was amazing. My paint went from being blotchy (the brightness underneath was blotchy, not the surface), dark, dull and boring to being even and absolutely brilliant. It is really bright now and just looks fantastic. The shine produced is also much better than any polish i've ever used. The best $40 i've ever spent. I would happily recommend this product to anyone with a dark car. I also notice that the bottle version of the wax (this is what I used) is larger than normal bottles of polish.

This product gets nothing but praise from me :D

a friend of mine has a black r33 s2. went to autobarn and asked which wax is the best... the sales guy tried every single wax they had on his car. and meguiers tech wax was the best.

my r33 is white so it probz doesnt matter what wax i use... but the tech wax is what im gonna buy!

After using the wax, will the swirl marks on a black car just come back after several washes?

I just dont want to spend time on it only to have the swirl marks come back anyway.

basically, yes

the swirl mark are always going to be there, the wax will just create a temporary layer that disguises them for a while.

Maquires Clear Plastic Polish is some good Sh!t also, S2 33 headlights come up a treat, not to mention the the rear lights!

I heard about this too, so you just buy this stuff (wax) from any car shop and then just polish and wax with a cloth at home on top of the headlights without taking them off?

    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
