:mellow: Here are some pic's of my R34 sedan after hours of washing, polishing and waxing this weekend.

It was all clean and sparkly so I had to grab the camera and take some pic's. Just wanted to share.

Mummy's car is the R34 family sedan (and last time I checked I was the mummy :) ), daddy's is the R33 2 door.

If you ask Maddie "daddy's car is too loud and fast, I like going in Mummy's car it's not loud" lol

Yes you have discribed Logan quite acurately, he is such a cheeky boy, he waits until you have your back turned and then draws pretty patterns on your car with chalk :D lucky it came off easily.

Thanks for the comments on the R34 too. :)

Thanks peoples.

Nathan - Yes washing your car is like a rain dance. Luckily she gets to stay in her garage when the weather is wet. :D

SS8_Gohan - You can make big pic little but you cant make little pics big, sorry :pirate: . I only use Meguiars products after attending one of the educational demo days at their factory. Washed with Meguiars NXT Generation car wash (purple product with green lids). Touched up a few scratches/road tar/bug guts with Meguiars Scratch X. You can use this clay stuff too that removes all contaminents on the paint, takes a long time though. Polish with another Meguiars polish, cant recall exact range. Wax NXT Generation, time permitted only one coat at the moment, but two or three would give better protection. Windows - Meguiars window cleaner. Tyres - Meguiars hot tyre shine. Headlights & tail lights - Meguiars Plastix cleaner (works a treat). Yes I keep Meguiars in business. :) Oh and thanks to my husband who lent a hand with the elbow grease.

Brendan - Mummy's little man! He is just too adorable he could get away with anything.

Jon - we are stage 3 now, not allowed to wash cars at home, only windscreens and headlights. Stage 4 in May, only car washes with recycled water. It sucks so much. We live about 500m from out BP car wash, close enough to wash, rush home and chamios before it dries!!

What good taste we have in names :wave: My Madeleine is 3yrs 4mths and Logan is 18mths. I love my kids to bits.

Cheers

my 2 yo once attacked my bonnet on a 33 4dr with a hacksaw!

was not impressed

nice car

at 1st i couldnt get used to the updated front bar on the later 34s but it is growing on me . fmic will be interesting on what to chop out of it

:) your worst nightmare. I guess they will be donating their pocket money for the respray.

The S2 front bar is a little different, and I don't think it can be easily modified to allow for a FMIC though. I would probably get another alternative front bar rather than hack this one to bits, it is still in excellent condition.

flirty4, i think you'll find this place most interesting...

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
