Okay like most I have armorall lying around from gifts etc

Use it to detail the tyres mostly

My doorhandles and glovebox handle thingo are nearly white

Most people say armorall is the devils work etc.

My older revhed mates all say hit the handles repeatedly with the armorall

will eventually make em look the correct color

what is everyone using my handles look bad

rest of the interior is pretty resonable

other than the remnants on my dash of the black silicon previous owner used to attach the boost gauge

that will be the next mission I guess

Any suggestions????????????????

I accidentally got a couple of drops of the stuff on my new leather gear boot. instantly took the color out of it. Now on the blue leather there is a couple of white spots that I'm stuck with. Not looking forward to the comments that passengers may come up with ;)

I wont be using it again. Slightly Damp cloth FTW

Armor all is evil

It's basically a mix of solvent and sealer. The solvent gets in and attacks the plastic (vinyl / whatever) and the sealer seals it in to let it keep attacking.

You be the judge.

And it costs about 25c a bottle to make.

I detail cars for a living and have found anything Maguiars is the shit! Not only do they work well but all their products smell good too, doesnt smell like chemicals. Amour all is absolute crap and will cause damage eventually.

If the plastic wont go back to its original colour try a bee's wax, that fixes most things! If that fails you may have to replace the parts effected.

Hope this helps.

I use Mothers Naturally Black, you can buy from any auto shop.

Pour onto the plastic, let it sit on it for a couple of minutes, then massage it into the plastic. Then buff it after it has dried. Its a longer process than all the typical black restorations, but this is different as it isnt just some black liquid to hide the faded plastic.

    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
    • I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk  
    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools. Buy Genuine Nissan 48700JF00D (48700-JF00D) Lock Set-Steering. Prices, fast shipping, photos, weight - Amayama
    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
