Hope you guys like the nozzles and if you're happy with everything, don't be afraid to leave Trader Feedback. Once everyone has their goods I'll go through and do the same for you all ;)

Oh, and I finally fired em off this morning :D

It's like having mini sprinklers mounted on the bonnet :)

Because they flow more water and disperse the water into a fan shaped spray, it feels like the pressure has dropped a little but it's still good. Try it for youself and see.

If you want more pressure, you could do something like what I did to my mate's car when I fitted a set of these for him many years ago. Since he never used the rear window washer, what I did was bridged the front & rear washer motors which are in the same washer bottle ( electrically and water output wise ) and that made for ample pressure. :)

Anyway, see how you go and report back what you think.

LOL ! Yeah mate, have a look and if you're unsure, send me a PM and I'll meet up with ya and install them for you :rant:

Hooked mine up as cooler sprayers today. They work really well! Just need to get that stupid valve so it doesn't keep leaking out though...

lol. Yeah they would work well as IC sprayers !

Shame I no longer have an IC to spray >_<

hey just got mine today... thanks

just a question... 1 of the squirt is abit loose.. any way of .. making it abit tighter?

Hi,

I don't think there's much you could do to tighten that 1 nozzle up but it shouldn't make any difference to the performance. Only thing I could suggest is to position it where you want it and then make sure it's dry and put a tiny bit of super glue where the ball / nozzle touches the socket ? Otherwise, just let it go and see what happens >_<

Ok fitted mine.

The left side is perfect, the right side doesnt seem to fan spray as much as the left, it doesnt have that nice flat spray that spreads out.

Is there anything that can be done? It is as if the spray nozzles need to be tightened (like a garden hose)

Also, after its finished spraying, there is a lot of water that is just left on the bonnet of the car, moreso than the stock ones, but at least the entire window is saturated.

Thanks

Sounds like your washer pump motor is not quite up to scratch. I suppose you could either replace the washer pump motor with a new one or combine the rear washer pump motor with the front one ( if you don't use the rear washer ) or even just check the hose from the bottle to the sprayers and see if it's kinked anywhere ?

Just a few thoughts......... Hope it helps :woot:

I've got mine. Thanks :)

The darn paint came off in my hands so I grabbed some 2000 wet/dry sanded them back and gave them a coat of black. Good as new. :)

Damn hard adjusting those nozles, will have another go tomorrow. :S

:woot: The paint came off ?? That's a new one. Sorry for about that :)

Yeah, the first time I fitted them ( to my 32 ) it took me ages to get them adjusted the way I wanted but this time I knew exactly how they needed to be so it took about 2 mins.

Thanks Scott

Problem is it was working fine with the old nozzles, eeven the new mtec ones on the left are okay, it must just be that right side perhaps.

And it is just one of the jets on the right side =P, I was thinking that maybe these things operated like a garden hose in which tightening would make the spray pattern wider. Ah well, $20, cant expect too much =)))

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • 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?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • 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
