I don't know whats more scary.. the fact that he asked or the fact that you know

Used to detail cars, NEVER wanted to know what I was cleaning but carpet shampoo Usually gets MOST things out and if that doesn't degreaser works on most other things.

Did you guys actually plan anything for the cleanage of the cars?

I might be up for something provided I actually get my car back in time.

Would also appreciate any tips on good products for cleaning the engine bay. Not sure if I'm that motivated but just in case :blush:

Just use degreaser on everything (might want to put plastic bags over sensitive bits and clean with degreaser and a rag) and rinse it off. Don't do it while the engine is hot, but about 10-15 minutes after it's been off. Won't deform anything and the warm engine will dry water if it's gotten anywhere it shouldn't. Start the car once your done to ensure it dries out. After having it run for 5 minutes let it cool down a bit again and use a plastics cleaner (armorall sell a pretty cheap one) to spray everything with and start your car (again) to make sure it dries.

I don't like using water in the engine bay, do it at your own risk. I've had one car run a bit funny after doing it, I dried all the connections and after a while I got it back to normal, but I'm sure if you don't do this all while the car is warm worse could happen. I've detailed about 20 engine bays and only had one small and easy to fix problem. Not sure what other peoples experiences are. Just don't spray water on your engine while it's still at normal running temps. It will deform the metal. When I do mine and Shell's I'll be sealing the valley and doing that bit with a rag - Don't want water sinking down there.

Well I'm not going away this weekend anymore so

still meeting at the usual spot on saturday morning?

The event is on Sunday the 21st I think this is the 3rd time I have pointed it out in this thread!!

ITS ON SUNDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Deep Breath :bunny:

I'll be there, but car will most likely be covered with bugs and other associated stuff as I'll be at the coast the day before. Unless I can be bothered giving it a good wash the night before.

Kat, we're using Damo's driveway in Melba... there's enough room for 2 cars in front of the double garage... but if you wanted to join us you could probably fit behind as the driveway is long enough :bunny:

Thanks chick, at this stage count me in. With any luck I'll get my car back in time :S

I'm going to be buying some stuff for me and Shell to clean our cars with, did you want me to pick up some stuff for you too? If so, just tell me what your planning on cleaning (e.g. Just exterior and engine bay, plastics, carpet). I've already got a bit of stuff left over from the last time I did this so I might not even have to buy much.

    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.
    • post up screen shots of your injector tables
    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same. 
    • I have an elite 2500 running an adapter harness on an rb25de neo r34. I took the butterfly out and removed all that junk. But I also went Plus+t at the same time. The butterfly thing works in reverse to the boost solenoid on the Gtt if that makes sense
    • yeh they are 235/45/17 up front and 255/40/17 in the rears. I still didn't get my answer if i can fit a 18x9 up front. I want to get 4 of this and see if they will fit before committing as they didn't see an 18x8 as an option but there is a 18x9.5 also.   Enkei RS05-RR 18x9 35mm ET 5x114.3 75.0 Bore Matte Gunmetal Wheel
