I guess we could double up here and there, depends on final numbers? Shouldn't have to make it only 1 car per month. 12 aint many.

I also was kinda thinking if we could have thumbnails of all the cars across the top of all pages and change which of them is then blownup below.

Will SirSmokey32 be entertaining the idea of having a 32GTR and a 34GTT in there? Praps 2 spots?

Is Troy's Orange van gonna be in too? or the purple liner?

I've just detailed 4 cars including my GTR, GTT, VTiR, Magna Sports and tomoz will be M<atts Evo VIII.

Happy to share how I do eeeet.

Cejay - how bad is it. Only ask coz I attacked one today and came up ok.

gave it a light cut and it took off the calcification and mended the paint.

Got a fairdinkum buffing tool etc..

Did the wash, Clay bar, wash, very mild cut, wash, detail finisher stuff and 2 x waxing.

Thanks Richard. Are you doing that by habd or with a buffer?

Bit of both for the mild cutting - depending on the need.

The roof and bonnet of the Magana sports was farked so needed to use the buffer.

The roof has what appears to be calcification on it. Perhaps I'll try and see if I can cut and polish it myself, although I havent done it before.

I was going to say if you did all of that by hand you must have some serious wax on wax off Karate Kid action going on!

All by hand except the magna . I am sore :/

Well worth it Cejay. Do it with a mild cut and by hand to start with. You can do it as many times as you like to get the desired result.

It's not harsh. When I first did it I thought I might burn the paintwork but you'd have to have a serious cutting compound and a buffing tool set on high.

    • Resizing injectors in Nistune can be done a couple of ways, and there are a couple of ways that you can make a mess of it. The tuner needs to be really aware of the effects of whichever approach he uses (either K, or TIM). They are both easy enough to "get the injector size right" to run the engine. But little details like old start enrichment and hot start are affected differently, depending on which boxes you check.
    • Pretty safe to say almost everyone that has tuned their own car has experienced this issue. The difference being that we have our laptop in the car and when it happens, it's literally 10 seconds of tuning to sort it.  Would you be happy to plug in your laptop and sort this yourself? It is a very simple process and there is no risk of harming your engine (if you are worried about that). 
    • Yeah thats the next step now, either they wil or i will take out for a drive to work and go straight their after work and see is we get the same issues 🤞  thought i try my luck here too, never know someone else might have had the same issue but thanks for the reply 
    • Basically your tuner needs to drive it for the 30 min (or whatever) to create the same conditions then check the ECU settings and sensors at that time. They may not be excited to because that takes them 30 min rather than just opening the bonnet and seeing the problem straight away.... Hot start is generally not as tricky as cold start, but there would be a table for fuel enrichment vs coolant temp as a starting point
    • Yeah, they all cant say anything for sure as everything is working fine . Said unable to find an issue untill it stops again. Could mist likely be CAS wiring or IAS valve issue but again not 100%
