hello .i ahve a moroon r33 gtst and am a perfectionist when it comes to pain.All the cars i have ever owned were immaculate monsters.The problem:i have very light not like orbital buff swirls but spider web type imperfections all over the car in the light.I use all maguires products,I have tried gold class prep then gold class and find its too hard to remove on these cars it is like the clear is really soft.I use the softest cotton material for polishing any ideas on what people have found to be successful.Would a paint shop have something to fix them???I am in brisbane any businesses that can help please let me know !cheers

A detailer would say that...

I have an unsubstantiated theory that the 'Super Fine Hard' or whatever it was, finish on the Skylines can actually make problems for people like me (and maybe you) who are pretty picky about the finish on their cars. I also believe that mine has copped some fine damage from pollution in Japan.

Give BCM on the magic mile a call, they might be able to sort something out for you (ask for Scott).

A Meguires "car shampoo" to clean it..followed by a suade chamois.. followed by a cut and polish in moderation.. followed by Meguires Gold Wax (mmmm, smells like bannanas :D ) or whatever it is called does pretty damn well for me.

If you've scratched the clearcoat or whatever and they are actually deep scratches, then nothing will get them out.. I have a couple that aren't to the undercoat but are visible.. but only on very close inspection and certain light.

    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
