Sure, Eugene or on SAU he's known as JDM Performance.

...has runs on the board with plenty of car owners in car magazines swearing by him.

The beauty is: he isn't just good at what he does, he loves doing it!

It was a PITA to get all the swirls out of the black paint > Eugene did it.

Selection of grade of Menzerna polish > Optima sealant (standing overnight to set) > Canauba wax = bit of an art!

Hi all , just wanted to share my detailing experience and some photos with you guys. My GT-R had foggy lights , swirl marks everywhere and I'd wanted to give it a good clean since I've never detailed it properly since i bought it .

Took it to a place called Affinesse (VIC) , Jerald the owner talked me through the processes involved and after seeing some of his previous work i quickly booked the car in for a well deserved luxurious bath.

Here are some of the pictures , most of them are of the actual detail process and then a little photo shoot that comes with the premium 3 stage detail.

Photos are taken by Affinesse and the captions are written by Jerald .

Took out the side indicators to clean behind

stunning results mate. I always love detailing photos its just so addictive to watch before and after shots.

One thing though, I would have also cleaned the plugs to the indicator lights with a little bit of degreaser or soap and a toothbrush

everything else top notch

yeah I'm with ants....thats a detail definitely missed..lol

In fact I don't really get how this is "extreme" detailing....looks like just a good regular job with a few photos taken...

I mean I take wheels off and seats out and shit and clean things you can't even see...I pulled the entire interior out if a stag....Now that's extreme...in fact its not even detailing anymore its car repair but man i cleaned under that damn carpet and washed that damn carpet...

This is just another GTR thinking its better than everyone else so needs its own thread, or maybe its just some cheap free subliminal advertising for the detailer...but you get used to that around here :rofl:

Oh and no discredit to Affinese its a great job but I like Terry's car better :P

    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
