To be PRECISE :), if you take Wattletree Road down from the city direction, past burke road, turn right at waverly road and you'll see it on your left :P.

Beware, do not wash your car there at 10.55pm. The thing will just switch off even though it says it closes at 11pm. The last time i had to drive off with foam all over my car :)

How bout just wash it by yourself @ the front of your place? lol

:thumbsup: yup, easiest to do it on your driveway....

and i'm not worried about water restrictions - a few minutes with a hose is not going to deplete the states water supply.

- get those dumb fockers who water their lawn for +3 hours in summer just to see it evaporate almost straight away... :banana:

Under the current "permanent water saving rules" you're allowed to wash your car with a normal hose so long as it's fitted with a trigger nozzle

Vehicle cleaning

Cars, boats and other vehicles can be cleaned using a hand-held hose, but only if it is fitted with a trigger nozzle. Buckets, watering cans and high-pressure water cleaning units can also be used.

Yeah i thought of that too, but there wasn't any tap.

I doubt at a car wash place they will actually place a tap there for people to use for FREE.

what?? there is a friggen tap there you can use for free!! right next to the tyre pressure thing... how can you miss it? as soon as you drive in its right infront of you!!

zomg

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
