Hi All,

I am looking for the name and place to buy this product, can any one help please.

I am looking for a product which i purchased in Auz before, but can't remember where, its to use on the plastic headlights of a skyline etc,

It takes away the dullness and discolouration of age. and sort of makes them clearer.

Can any one help me??

Many Thanks

POOMA

ie. Unique Autosports have it.

I think JustJap have it...

OR, if you want you can call up your closest Honda dealer and ask for Honda Plastic Cleaner that is used to clean the plastic windshields on their motorbikes. That stuff is also the same.

Do these products cause any hazing of the plastic?

I purchased a small television with a clear plastic screen cover, but when i got it home, i found that there had been something dripped onto the clear plastic cover, and it has left some small 'scars' on the plastic.

I've been contemplating using something like this to see if it will fix it.

Edit:

Ok just cleaned my car, and mum told me to use ajax-spray and wipe and the right headlight now looks a lot cleaner than usual..

Still not 100% clear like my other one.. But it got rid of some yellow stuff atleast..

Hope it doesnt damage the plastic over time..

I've been using Maguires Plastic X for about 2 years now and haven't noticed any permanent damage to my headlights so far. I've also used it on the plastic that encloses the speedo + tacho in the dash and it's come up so clear I can't see the plastic anymore. It doesn't fix discolouration/cloudiness for good though, you need to regularly apply it (if it did fix plastic for good, you wouldn't need to buy more! :pirate: )

      Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching

      Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.

      Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.
