Hey guys I have got some scff marks on my car. Theres also a few spots which are "dirty" or brown in colour but no matter how much a sponge it, it doesn't go away. Will a clay bar do anything? Have a look at the pics. Sorry I took some tonight. If you look around the nissan badge it's a bit smudgey.

Any help would be appreciated.

Call Antonio at Waxit.com.au 9330 2177, they have small bottles of polishes, explain to him what its for and order a bottle and a hand pad that they have in stock (much better than just a applicator).

Regards,

Mitch

I just use jiff some people say its to abbrasive but ive never had problems after uding it snd it gets off anything.

Never had problems until you continually use it and end up with no clear left its WAY to abrasive, and if you had an eye for paint you would see substantial swirls and marring where used.

NO WAY I WOULD EVER USE OR RECCOMEND USING IT ON SOMEONES CAR.

its just as cheap and ALOT better to buy Poorboys SSR1 and a hand polishing pad from Waxit so why not do it properly, dont see the point in spending so much money on a car and have your pride and joy just to skimp on proper maintinence....but thats just me maybe.

Had similar problems on the passenger sideskirt from previous owners girl friend wearing high heels and actually putting scratches on there grrr and these don't come out

Everything comes out :) you just got to know what to use and how.

I strongly suggest calling Antonio at Waxit.com.au ask about the hand polishing pads and little polish bottles and they will come out :)

Regards,

Mitch

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
