anyone here tried 'permatex' headlight restoration kit? i was working all sat so couldn't get to supercheap, so asked my mate who was going down to grab me some headlight restore stuff. haven't heard of this stuff before so asking to see if anyone's tried it... else i'll just return and get something tried and tested.

main concern also is that it doesn't come with a sealant...

Full bore the best fun, but for target ammo expect 1$ or more a round

little cheaper for practise

plus you ahve to travel long ways to get to the venues, but the rifles are the cheapest

small bore is much easier to start with and the skills transfer across

air rifle is gay

Pistol is a royal PIA to get a license and keep it.

expect many random visits from cops at strange hours to check on them

but find a club close check tey have club rifles and gear and go try it

Never heard of it. I've used the turtlewax and another brand can't remember what though. Definately not permatex though. Very strange there's no sealer either.

    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
