I just had about 100ml of beer spill onto the backseat of my car, I soaked up ~50% of it with a towel and then sat another dry towel over the wet patch to try suck up some more of it. What products can I use to get at this in the morning? Right now i'm off to bed cos ive had about 5 hours sleep since thursday.

Still against the law to have open alcohol in the car while it's driving, even if it's a passenger. But seriously, how many of us still allow it. I know I do and I have never drunk drove in my life.

Try the Metho trick dude. The worst part about spilt beer is the smell after a while.

Haha yeah true. I have even been pulled over a few times with passengers that have opened alcohol and the police didnt mind as long as I'm sober.

Do I just pour some metho onto my back seat and leave it? Or should I dab at it with a clothe or something, I'll be trying it tomorrow. Today the car didnt smell to bad and you could only smell a faint beer smell if you sat in he backseat

Just soak some rag with methylated spirits and dab the area. It'll evaporate anyway and with no stain and even less smell.

It wasnt me that was drinking. My asian friend decided his beer would be ok if he sat it down upright while I took a roundabout. That was his only his third beer as well and he's a big guy about 95kgs. asians cant drink

if it was a white guy i could help you, but asian beer stains are a different matter...

see if you can use a carpet cleaner. might be able to rent one somewhere.

I wouldnt go near one of those things. They are SHIT. I have 10 yrs carpet cleaning experience so I know.

Ring a carpet cleaner if your really keen to get it super clean. Most carpet cleaners hate doing cars so be nice and pull the seats out for him. If they try to charge you more then $100 to do both fronts and the back tell em to get f**ked. and make sure they use the hot water extraction method, not some half arsed dry cleaning bullshit. this goes for your carpets too.

If your in brisbane or gold coast PM me.

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
