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.

Have a recommendation as to what I should use?

I use meguiars for everything and have used mothers for the Claybaring.

I'll type something up and PM or if you want pick a weekend day and we can do it at mine in Bonython.

Can show and tell and you can do :)

Would cost only $20 bucks for the cut/buf foam pad and your time.

Even happy to lend you the Buffer and you can use it in your own time.

Sounds like it's needed on your roof.

I have the paint on the wing fading and mottling. I wonder if a cut and polish would fix or reduce this? Thoughts?

come round after christmas and we'll have a go at it and a six pack

If you get a chance to send me a pm that'd be great. Will see if I can tackle it by hand over the break, if not like you said could perhaps try and organise a weekend sometime.

thanks

Abso Muddaf**kin' lutely !!! Hahahaha...

Could be lifted by 6 inches and it still look awesome. :thumbsup:

Do you have a preference of Month?

The gopro is epic at video and pretty good at camera shots as well.

When this happens I wouldnt mind coming around and taking some behind the scenes video for it.

I have Thursday and Friday off until 3:00pm

Anyone keen to catch up then and take some photos?

We can cruise to where ever

Has there been any decisions made on the official date for this? as the Mrs is getting all "well? what's happening? have they decided yet or what???".

She wants to go to the coast over NY but really wants to see some kind of MARKETS? or some shit at Ulladulla on the 30th.

MARKETS!!! pffffft... whatever.

I may have to either take my own shots or hook up with Kasko etc which sounds cool too.

Would be good to get some more Pro Shots if possibles but we'll see...

I think we are waiting for stinkypoo to finalise the date, time and place cos hes the pro photographer with the good gear/skills.

That gold 32 gtr colour looks really nice in the photo, cant wait too see it in the flesh. Very good choice. Shows very good taste.

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
