Seems like a cheaper alternative to Plastidip.

Apparantly they have a "clear" type of liquid wrap, sounds like it might be the goods for keeping my paint smick and preventing stone chips.

Anybody got any experiance with liquid wrapping there car?

I know lots of people do there wheels and they seem to out alright.

Used it. Wouldn't suggest unless you paint is absolutely perfect where you plan to use it. I had very small paint swirls on the nose of the hood and never really thought of it. Applied the stuff on. Got the car waxed and buffed. Now I got a super clean hood minus the nose of it. So.... get the paint perfect otherwise it looks funky.

Clear. Friend tried the "color matched" but once dried, looked horrible.

Hmmm

Can you describe what it looked like after you put it on?

Was it just like someone had put contact on your car?

Did it come off easy enough?

A friend at a Jaguar dealer helped is gonna help me with the next application on my new R33. I guess that's a common dealer option for their cars and he told me he'd help out to get it right. I guess if you really want it clean looking, get it professionally done. I know I'll never do it myself again. I've considered using a clear sticker thingy kit someone was talking bout but I'd think the clear vinyl would start to yellow from the sun.

Went on super clear. Looked like simple clear coat. Mask and tape off your area. Apply. Wait. Apply. Wet sand little. Unmask and wash. Wish I had a pic of it. Friends car was red. Stuff he got was supposedly color matched. Once dried, it looked deeper in color. Not sure if it was that he put on three apps or what. Couldn't tell at night but easy to see in the sun. Laid super flat and thin. He never tried removing it cause he later went to a fiberglass hood. I never attempted to take it off either. Far as I know, once it's on....it's on!

Hey TL.... I don't think you're talking about EBC Liquid Wrap? It's a Spray on Peel off coating, it's not distributed in the US and it's certainly not designed to be permanent.

With the clear, it comes in matte and glossy, so you will notice a difference between the finish of the coated area and non-coated areas.

My mistake. I was thinking of a completely different product. I didn't realize yours peeled off! I wish I had that years ago! Stuff I used was basically a clear coat paint system. Branch out man! We need that stuff here!!!! My fault for not fully researching your product. Thought he was referring to the kit I used.

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
