I work in the shire, so I thought I'd ask the locals about it for you.

They all said "wash your own car! ewww!"

i want to wash my own car but I'm not allowed to use a hose. Yes Vic - buckets. They suck. I normally use a trigger attachment on the hose but not so sure about doing that here.

John's idea is the best so far. Go down to steve's and use his driveway :) :)

Ive never actually used a hose to wash the car, always used 3 buckets full and another smaller one for soap. Takes awhile but nice n clean :P

Sorry Adam, wasn't clear enough :)

When I asked about a car wash in which you can wash your own car they were disgusted, they told me you pay people to wash your car for you.

I believe some of the comments were, "oh, I think they have those things in Bathurst or Orange or something"

Do you feel like a Hobbit yet?

Its not a carlovers branded one.....

Go up King Georges Rd

Get to Canterbury Rd

Turn right at the lights there and head city bound on Canterbury Rd

Go through a set of lights, the look on the RIGHT hand side and just after the rim shop there will be one

further down the road is spoilers car wash. they do a good wash for the $, top coffees, and the chikki that works there on weekends making coffees is hawt.

how much is the basic wash ?

how hot is the chikki ?

there's a hand-wash at a servo on forest rd at bexley, $12 for the basic exterior wash. they do a pretty good job too.

Crystal Carwash (Cafe) on corner of King Georges n Princes.. They wash you car while you sip a latte.

If it's too busy or not your cup of tea, just go 'round the corner to Steve's Rub n Scrub Carwash :D

I got my $17(wagon) car wash ($16 for sedans, $22 for 4WD/SUV/MPVs) for $13.50 the other day. Dunno why I payed less, but I wasn't about to complain...

Sydney Car Wash, 112-126 Broadway, Chippendale or 347 Windsor Rd, Baulkham Hills.

You could always go for a Waterless Car Wash system, like Meguiars have: http://www.meguiars.com.au/water_saver.htm. If the car is REALLY dirty, then do a normal wash (sponge and car-wash fluid) first, then maintain it with the Waterless kit.

    • Does this count as a time trial as well? I got all gold in the master super licence (1 lap time trial) and received a McLaren MP4/4 for my trouble.  If anyone else has done this, did you ride the wall right around the first long right hander at Lake Louise snow track to get gold? I couldn't do it any other way... best I could do without riding the was was within 2 tenths of the gold time.
    • I definitely get the low power, sporty car to drive to smash gears but not be doing eleventy million miles an hour! It makes all the normal drives fun!   Rev match tune sounds like the funs! I didn't know the NC had a DBW throttle!   As for me, still have the Skyline, it still has the Barra in it. It's been pushed to the side of the workshop at the moment. Pretty much waiting on me finishing the wiring, and dropping new fuel lines in. Got myself an ACDC Tig end of last year so been teaching myself TIG welding to build a few things for the Skyline. The missus wrote off her GTB liberty at the end of last year, and got it back on salvage rights stupid cheap. It's also still registered, so will mean easier for me to take to the track already done most of the panel damage, just playing "clear the workshop" to make space to pull the motor and box out, fix some oil leaks, replace the clutch, and replace a few minor broken things.  Also got a Lathe at the start of the year, which is adding to the annoyance of no space, which is another reason I'm trying to build things to get more space, to get the Lathe back in a final home for it. It's a BIG lathe, can turn a 355mm diameter, and 1metre between centres... Got it at a steal! So between it and the TIG and old MIG welder, I'll be fabbing some fun little shit up But we've had a lot of shit stuff happening at home, so it's slow going getting things done. But one step at a time!
    • I love Catalunya.  Got a 1:54.632. The AMG is a hoot.
    • I hadn't got that far, my main worry was the connection to the actual calipers themselves. I'm just using new (ish) stock brake lines in the stock setup. I've just had a stud welded to the knuckle that is a little lower than the original stud (so my knuckles have two studs each side) to not have it be stretched so far in previous BBK setups, so the "block" (in the second picture) mounts a little lower for me and I hope I don't need to change anything. I may have even changed the connection to the calipers in the past and have since forgotten I did that. I may not have. Guess how I'm gonna find out. Source: hopium
    • It's more so I'm using the 1x piece line from HEL that goes from the body to the caliper. There's no middle block/mount like the HFM ones or the GKtech ones. There are certain angles/suspension compression where the line actually slightly contacts the ARB. Below of how mine sit (not my photo): How I want it:
