Dan...it's a carnauba paste made from only the best Brazillian soccer players. Apparently just breathing in the vapours will suffocate you with a thick layer of carnauba oxide. Using it to port and polish your head will make the ports so slippery, air actually accelerates as it travels into the combustion chamber, creating some form of pseudo forced induction.

Well that might be stretching the truth but it's a very cheap and very awesome wax...couple of the boys who were at the photo shoot the other night will vouch for that :P

If only I had the time to put on two layers :D

Wicked! I'll be there... fresh paint does wonders!

Is there any categories for best CHICKS skyline.. lol

So much for equal opportunitys and all that.

It will have a hair tie on the gear stick if its a chicks...

unless your mrs drives your car too :P

I will try and make it down to have a look, but the stagea is getting looked at, i am helping a mate move and the 32 isnt show worthy, so I will not be entering either car. Stagea is nice and clean but hardly show worthly.

Want to see your GTR anyway Chris...

btw PEARL JAM WAS AWESOME.

that is all :D

BTW, Ash, will someone have spare SAU stickers for members to purchase on the morning to have all the cars in the SnS wearing one, making the club a bit more visible?(kinda hard to miss an SAU sticker on every car you look at :blink: )

Ahhh you idiot Birds, sure your car is clean but you'll be sleeping in it for most of tomorrow lol. Thought I'd give it one last wash on the way home from what was supposed to be an early party...gotta give me credit for the dedication!

I was gonna be there but im guessing that after discovering a small injector leak and estimating a loss of around 10 litres between Berwick and Pakky, i dont thihnk its a good idea to drive the GTR....

Well I won't go into detail with what I had this morning but there's no way I could have stayed at a static car display all day! Weather turned out awesome for yas...overcast with no rain is the best for viewing waxed up beasts. Lol TJ no wasted effort there ;)

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
