as long as it's sealed it should be fine. I've taken mine through once before (it looked white with dust and I was desperate to get it clean :() and my spoiler was fine. It's a S2, which I put on myself. So you should be fine. My only issue was it took part of my SAUWA sticker off ;)

i think the whole wash is around 27bux... it isnt like the BP fuel station ones it uses long peices of fabric instead and then they run around ure car and shammy it down for u and do the interior... it is really worth it... if they do a good job which these guys do i will try to find the name of it

Theres a "touchless" car wash in Malaga that works quite well. No chance of scratches.

Obviously it wont get off bugs on the front bar thats been cooked on their for a week but for a quick tidy up its fine. If im lazy, i use it on the way to work on a saturday morning :laugh:

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
    • Shock tower brace is in +5Kw....LOL
