i bought an orbital buffer the other week and have been going a little crazy myself in the detailing department. just learning the in's and out's of polishing and buffing but im in good hands from a mate that knows it all :P

i'll be getting into the claybar, scratchX and gold class wax soon enough, im just doing the scratch & swirl remover treatment at the moment and its doing wonders.....and as for the orbital buffer ----> awesome

Yeah I went mega buffo on teh car. Came up pritty good I must say...

For those who are new to the club too, make sure you introduce your selves at the show and shine. I will be the guy who looks like he is about to pass out. I only got 4 hours sleep and then got out of bed early for bloody daylight savings!!!!

i'm sure everyone will have their digi there.

for something a bit different i'm going to take my film SLR and (if i can find it on a sunday morning) some nice slide film - and get it developed and scanned at a hideously overinflated price. kinda bored with my compact camera's inability to take photos as good as I'd like, and colours on slide film are sooo beautiful.

yup, that is she :)

i was only at SNS for about 30 minutes because i had to leave at 1:30 to get to windsor...the accident on the F3 threw my timing out badly though...DAMN IT!

thats your car next to me?

and yeah, it looked like it was a great day, good to see the rain clouds stayed away!!! that gibson bnr32 was AWESOME.

Yeh thats mine :)

OMG I drove by the accident like 1 min after it happening.... saw a corolla with no front passenger side wheel and crushed front end.... was NOT good

sweeeeeeeeet!!!

what happened to that car??? did it lose control going over those ruts on the road for the bridge???

    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
    • street use or race track, what hose size and why? what factors change with the hose size options ?   see most comon is an10. when you see most oem external coolers are closer to an12? does high volume oil pump like nitto need an12 or 10 be just fine
