Hey guys as stated above, I know Mavrics cousin (Gavin) does car detailing but i just spoke to him and he said the cost for him to hire the steam cleaner and do it wouldnt be worth it. He mentioned that he can shampoo and clean most stuff, but i need to get the tobacco smell out of my car. He said try and get a place that already steam cleans to do it.

So im looking for a good place that will steam clean my car, if anyone can recommened a place that would be great!!

Im in Eastern Suburbs.

Ps. Gavin from Xtremeline car detailing (Mavs cousin) was very helpful, sounds the goods.

Thanks guys,

mark.

You could hire a Britex machine from Coles and give it a go yourself.

I use these to steamclean our carpets at home, I'm pretty sure there is a small nozel which could work for a car.

Perhaps worth checking them out to see if it is suitable.

Otherwise there is a couple of car cleaning places at Knox City - im sure they'd do it for you.

Hey Bec,

Thanks for the suggestion, ill get a place that knows what they are doing as im sure ill stuff something up :fakenopic: If the temp of the steam cleaner is not right or their is to much water, Gavin was saying how it can bring the dirt up from deep within the seat and not clean it properly etc.

May have to start looking around, but was just wondering if anyone had any recommendations/experiences so i know im leaving my car with someone who will do the job right.

Cheers,

Mark.

i remember chatting to a guy who was steam cleaning mums carpet and seats etc., he said he also does cars and they come up pretty good...

remmember he said something like 40 bucks for front and back seats..

i will see if mum still has his number, but i suggest you call carpet cleaners and ask to see if they will do your car..

I've had cars done in a few places in Ringwood and Boronia...The place in Boronia did an awseom job on my FTO when I got it new...called Protech.

In ringwood me and my mates have used Tankards (I think)they have done some decent work...usually u they all clean they whole car...not just the seats..costs about $100.

Sounds pret sweet, may have to venture down that way.

Anyone know any near Bulleen/Doncaster, or any mobile ones that come to you?

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
