Or just go to any of the other car washes late when no one is around and make use of the high pressure hose. When no one is there you can ignore the no bucket rule and take your time :)

Yup, this is something I do on occasion.

I'm staying in a hotel at the moment so until I move into my new house later this week. All my detailing gear is still in transit. So at the moment my options are limited.

I found a Waves car wash at Braddon, are they any good?

I just do what GTRKat recommended.. i got to the one in Belconnen on Lathlain Street (Classic Car Wash??) at about 11pm and use a sponge on those hard to clean spots. Usually costs $8-10 and takes about 30min depending on how thorough you want to be.

My GF previously worked at Waves. They did a good job when she got her washes but the liquid wax they used to use only lasted a week. They don't use that stuff anymore, and I haven't seen the new stuff yet.

If you goto Waves in Braddon, try it out when it's not too busy but not dead.

I went to Waves out at Gungahlin, one of the guys at Trojan Motorsports recommended them when I popped into the workshop today.

Once I'm in my house in a couple of days, I'll go back to detailing my car myself with my Meguiars gear.

Hi Hanso

I live in a unit so although I'd prefer to do my own it's not always an option - I often use the the Star car wash (now new manager) - first level of the Target car park in the Canberra centre, all washes are hand (no big brushes belting crap out of your car). They also do a good polish, also by hand, various levels of detail various prices .. but good if you want to drop your car off, have it cleaned and come back in an hour after lunch etc and pick it up, it's all done.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
