nah col its good, my car always come up beaut down ther with some meguires products. better than dirty rain water! at least tap water is filtrated.

btw i used the brush (after washing with high pressure hose) and did me no harm.

rofl at the bucket thing... . I never use the brush on my car either the only time i ever used it was when i went to the skid pan and got all that diesal and crap all over it... i dident want to take any chances on my newly resprayed car being eaten i found if u want to use soap and cbf usen ur hands to do it there is usualy a high powered soap setting you can use also :thumbsup:

Yeah, thats what I do. Normally after 9pm its starting to get quiet.

BTW, I can do mine for $3. $1 rinse car, $1 fill bucket, $1 rinse car.

We too have tanks now tho, 9000L worth all full. Just no pump to get the water out of them :)

i know where you can get a pump from!!!!

Only if I can wash my car like I do at home...

aaarrrgghh ha haha..

silly buggers..

try this. I 'stole' my wifes spare nappy bucket! they have lids that seal REALLY good! Add the water and soap of your preference.. Then drive into the car wash.. hose the car and sponge away. We were aked to leave once..

so my mate and I used a car park on the road outside of the car wash. Then drove back in to hose it off!

simple!

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
