Meguiars products. Bit more expensive, but worth it. I use their polish and wax, and some interior stuff, looking for the plastic cleaner to do headlights, but can't find it anywhere.

I use cheaper stuff for tyres and rims, I have found all of the rim cleaners I have tried are very similar in result.

Mostly use meguires but I find as far as a quick polish goes i usually use Eagle one - it requires less elbow grease as Meguires and I cant complain the way it brings the car up.

Why oh why did i buy black haha

OK, I've been biting my tongue for a while now, but I've had enough. You seem quite oblivious of this fact, but a web browser will AUTO WORD WRAP POSTS! Yes, its amazing, isn't it? Ever wondered why everyone elses posts take up 12+ words a line while yours only take up 35 characters? Its because they aren't pressing enter when they run out of room in the text box. And no, a new line is no subsitute for commas, fullstops and other punctuation.

I always thought room temperature IQ was all that's needed to post on forums, but its time to rethink that one.

Anyone who thinks I'm being too harsh should consider that well constructed sentences is the only thing seperating us from the teens on fast fours forums or the gits on irc. Written communication is vital to get your point across and poor form reflects on the forum itself. To quote a favourite forum of mine, "All of us who spend any significant time on the Internet know that written communication apparently is at the bottom of most message board posters' priority lists. From horrendous spelling to unrecognizable grammar, people make idiots out of themselves every day... and most don't care."

Nice one Gradenko, I think you speak from all us here. Adrian, I like you, but stop hitting enter, cover it up if your that unco that you can't not hit it.

Back on Topic:

I use Brasso for my headlights, it works good, but does need reapplication every 2 weeks to stay looking good. I've heard Mothers is good, but have no idea where to buy it from.

See'ya:burnout:

Meguires on the outside....

go to www.mequires.com and hunt down their online car protection guide... it asks you a heap of questions about where you live, what your cars exposed to, and (essentially) how much you care about your car.... adn then puts together a program for you based on your answers.... (not all the products listed are easily available here unfortunately, but with a bit of hunting, you should be able to get them, or something very similar)

On the inside, i don;t use much except for the armourall 'new car' cleaner.... similar to normal armour all, only with a lemon scent...

and Paul, I'm pretty sure you can pick up Mothers at Marlows, same as Meguirs, it's just that their range is pretty limited.... Wonder if somewhere like the PPG distributor would have a decent range of car care products?

Maybe one of Perths "premier" speed shops should start carrying it... :-)

(BTW, Speedworks/WheelsWorld stock Swissol cleaning gear, which is apparently better than Meguirs/Mothers, but not cheap)

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
