Just had my headlights polished today, because they were going milky and I thought I would post some pics of them.

The place I used was called GT Glass Technology and he comes out to you, I just had the plastic cut back and polished and they resealed

so they wont fade for a couple of years. Here is his number if you want to ring him 0412 844 697. Price will vary it depends on how bad you plastic is.

i think you can buy a tube of that polishing stuff, just rub it on and it comes up the same as that we did it too my car once it was similar to your r34. id imagine it would be cheaper by doing it ya self. cant remember what its called but id presume theyd sell it at autobarn n such places. its amazing how good it comes up and how different it looks

I had it done in Warradale He was from Chrisities Beach but im not sure how far he goes just give him a call.

pretty sure he is from lonsdale off o'sulluvans beach rd. , spoke to him a while back about polishing my scratched back window. from all reports he is the only person with the stuff to do it right in town ????

FYI, you can polish your own headlights for cheap as hell. using 2000grit wet sandpaper, polishing compound or aviation window polish.. and some masking tape to protect the rest of the car. a small buffer speeds the process but can be done by hand.

the auto stores plastic polish crap wont cut it , unless its not bad off. and dont forget some polish can stuff up some types of plastic

its not regular plastic its lexan , much stronger

The stuff that most people use including myself is meguiars PlastX.

just to save some money, it doesnt work if your lights are yellowing , it is a very mild abrasive .....most lights need more help then that provides.

you can use Megulars M105 it works a treat on lights

What was the price for getting yours rubbed back? I've been considering getting complete new headlights due to a small crack and really bad fogging, but that has come up really well :)

I payed $132 for both lights, beats buying new ones . Mine has cracking around the edges of the light which dont come out because its all the way through. but he will tell you if it can be done or not.

    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
