this is freaky was only thinking last thursday when I was buying a quick clay kit and some polish that if it would ever turn up.... Yet to see mine but everything takes a bit longer down here in old Adelaide :thumbsup:

Ok so I didnt really look at what these "samples" were when i got them earlier, thought i'd just sus them when i gave the stag a quick was thisarvo...

Anyway I got some glass polish and super resin polish and 2 sachets of fancy car wash.

My exterior detailing kit now has:

Numerous car wash soaps

Clay bar

Quick detailer

Wax

Polish

Cut and polish

Metal Polish

Glass polish

super resin polish

Tyre shine

bumper detailer

(plus more i would have forgotten)

Seriously when will it end? how long do you guys spend washing the wagons? I seem to find myself giving it one good wash (takes half a day) and polish a month with a weekly or bi-weekly wash in between these "mega washes"

Thinking meguires has got me good on some good marketing techniques....

Ah im out washing mine proberly once or twice a week normally. With a full Exterior detail once every two weeks. ( Lots of spare time :) ) However lately haven't got to give it a good wash or detail, due to excessive work and rain and other commitments. But just finished a good detial then and i trialled the auto glym glass polish. Very happy with the results. However it made more work for myself as it showed up all the marks on the inside lol! :D

i find with the glass polish, the longer you leave it on the eaiser it is too take off,

i wash mine every week, may leave it 2 weeks before i wash it but that rarely happens,

the wife hates my detailing addiction, i must have $1500 - $2000 worth of stuff, its forever growing too lol,

the big detail (4 times a year) takes me all day (8-9 hours) to do the stag if i polish, wax it, i must be sad, i find detailing one of the most relaxing things to do.

I wash mine everytime it's hard to see where i'm going... :action-smiley-069: no,really i'm not fan of washing it because the second day after washed is all dirty again and because it shows all the details :happy: (about 5 dent and various scratches)

Beeing a daily drive is hard on her...

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
