Armourall extreme tyre shine. It doesnt stick on the tyre properly, consequensly it flies off the tyre and will go around the guards and when you wash the car the paintwork will go all specaly. My cars black so it wasnt too bad, but its damaged the paintwork (cut and polish should fix it) but it shouldnt have happened in the first place.

90% of tyre shines are silicone based and hence why it looks to make your paint go silly........ what u should try and do is use whatever tyre shine you use (armourall etc) and put it on and when it starts to disapear wipe as much as you can off with a soft rag...... and note: if you "spray" it of from too far away it will get on your paint anyway so do it close and take it easy......another thing i can tell you is that here at repco or atuobarn you can buy a spray can of tyre shine with a black tin with white writing and a BLUE lid...its really cheap and it doesnt flick off and its very effective but it only lasts a day or two...its like $2 a can.... i hope this may help you in some way shape of form..... i am a car detailer by trade so if you have any more questions feel free to ask me........Jon

I use the maguiars tyre stuff and then windex to clean anything on the car afterwards... works miracles...

altho my car hasn't been washed in the last 4 or 5 months lol

johnson's baby prodcts are mad... they're so mild yet soooo effective

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/

      Blue slip

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.

      Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.

      Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.

      Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
