Never understood claying

Such an important step. You will be stunned by the amount of crap a clay bar pulls off of your paint. Sap, grime, hard water marks etc. Makes such a difference. If you don't clay all you are doing when you wax is sealing the bonded contaminants to your paint, not a good thing.

He was concerned that he may not have the time commitments - which is true if he was acting alone. Acting as a team, this issue is alleviated - to an extent.

I am glad to hear that he knows he has the support of the Exec team and the Club. No one can be everywhere at once and participation can be done in many forms a lot of which is done on the back end (chasing QR and sponsors, Working on events, Club direction) physical participation at events while always good to see is just a perk of being part of the club or affiliated with it. However he is able to participate will be good enough for me (unless he puts an LS1 in his car too)

I will be trying this Clay baring on my car either this weekend or next one.

Who wants to come clay my car for me to show me the difference.

I clay bared the new Evo in Friday afternoon due to the fact that when I washed it I was unable to chamoi it as the chamoi would just stick to the car. After a clay bar & a polish it's mint.

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
