Ha! You never used it before? Its a must when washing your car. Watermarks suck, especially on darker cars.

Btw only the proper $20 ones (ie leather) do the job. The shitty $3 jobbies are nothing more than a damn cloth which don't hold any water at all! And trust me I've tried them all!

I might need to buy a leather one then lol

I hate that yellow oil stuff that some manufacturers put in their chamois'. I had one that wouldn't wash out for months! Left oily dots all over the car, and it always looked terrible.

Might have to try a Maguire's synthetic one? I thought that's the one I was complaining about, but i'll check.

hey...nothing wrong with the $2 chamois :)

Synthetic and also "great for car cleaning". Found it in a box on the floor at bunnings warehouse.

I use a chamois to soak up the water then wipe away the residue with a microfibre cloth, leaving that dry shiney look :P

Well mine cost me 3 bucks from Super Cheap... and its actually good. I saw others for 20 bucks im like "na too tight."

Kk ok... 3.50 cents! I splashed out :)

*steps back* :P

Seeing as this isnt the wasteland where we can whore might as well add some information, if any, to this reply.

For people who do not know what a chamois looks like :)

I could take some shots of its performance but im not that bored...yet :P

Haha. Another vote for the synthetic. I got mine in K-Mart and it works fine.

We are currently looking at getting some Skylines Australia Chamois made up for sale to the forum and club members.

Haha cool count me in...my meguiars one is wearing out..need a new one...perhaps write to meguiars and get them to do a deal for SAU...GB for members in return for the SAU logo on it :) rice to the max!!!

    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
