remember some time ago some product 'super glue remover' ??

if acetone works then metho should work nearly as well!

was the sperglue thing 1 of big kevs products?

The one I have here is "Magic" Brand.

It gets rid of the glue by applying it a few times and it breaks it down and you can wipe it away.

Don't know if it would leave a mark on your dash, best bet is to test it for colourfastness on a small spot of you dash which is out of view.

um.. i tried metho on mine which cleared some but not all of a mark i had on mine. I was initially worried the metho would eat away the plastic but it works a treat. I think you're stuffed as the super glue actually changes the chemical composition of the dash and bonds itself into the plastic molecules.

You could always paint it blue? hehe

coz double sided tape doesent hold hard enough

the superglue just form a thin plastic layer onto on the dash. It aint that a complex thing that it changes the molecules of the dash

nah man, predator is right. Dont' get me wrong but - This is Serious!!!

The molecules on your dash may have changed forever, I suggest you immediately go and visit a Chemical Engineer or someone who is experienced in dealing with the transformations of polymers and get some help!!!!

..........or just go buy some super glue remover!

:D

hey..stop that...

seriously - the idea of superglue is to form a bond between the glue and what it bonds to. For plastic it will seep into the plastic, and that is why it is so effective at what it does. While you can try superglue remover, it will probably still leave a stain in the dash as its below the outer layer - as you will probably find out.

Don't ask how it got there its a long story!!!

try it - it works really well (goes out and buys shares in super glue remover company)

But try it on a spot of paint you can't see first to check if it's gonna effect your paint.

inasnt - you can get some really stong double sided tape stuff, similar to the one that comes with an SAFC originally from a hardware store. It doesn't even leave a mark.

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
