i bought mothers 3 step waxing system to use on my car?? dunno how good it is though??

i havnt used it, so i cant comment. But what i do is wash the car, then paint clean it, then polish it, then synthetic wax it, then natural wax it. and then when i wash it the next time i use some detail spray after washing it :)

Yes im pedantic, but the car looks soo horn

well the 3 step is a :

Step 1 : pre-wax cleaner,

Step 2 : sealer and glazer

Step 3 : caranuba wax

I have used the zymol range and found it to be the best so far (have tried meguirers, and mothers as well). If you were really being podantic shanef I have a mate who has this wax that has to be refrigerated when not being used but once done looks awesome.

yeh the wax i want from zymol needs to be kept refridgerated, and applied only by bare hands...wat is the stuff ur friend uses?

do u machine buff or hand wax??

hand wax, id never use a buff (it puts swirls in caus it moves in a circular fashion, i work in straight lines)

hmm sounds about right, the zymol stuff ain't cheap but is good

indeed, gonna cost me around $400 for all the gear i want

    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
