Just use windex [emoji23]

There is a bottle of spray you can get called windex with Mr. Muscle. We use it at work for everything from cleaning machinery Thuogh to detailing the d-max. I've started using it at home to clean near on everything. It's amazing. Just remember wax on wax off. Mr Miagi was Japanese and he knows his stuff.

Oh nah Motul is good, been using 300V for a few year. I just find that it turns black quite fast. I am changing as KYP recently become Moty's distributor in Australia. So I will be changing over to test it out. From what I have heard and read it's very good oil. Apparently in Japan when the cars at the endurance race used it and when they took the engine apart after the race for a rebuilt, those engines using Moty's didn't have scratches to the block or pistons etc. But as usual, I take reports with a grain of salt...what better way to just try it out lol.

There is alot of things to be said about 7.5/35 for the rb's. I just use a 10/40 fully synthetic. If you check out the Nissan manuals I think this is fine because of our hotter climate. I've just clicked over 5000kms and it's almost dead clean to the point I have to put on my glasses and shine a light on the stick too see it.

I was planning on changing my oil every 5thou just to be pedantic and because I love the engine so much. However now I think I will just wait until it gets dirty and black on the stick.
So guys whens the next catch up? Hank we still doing that pool thing? Or gokarts. Im keen for a meet also my buddy avacardo would like to join us in the next one.



I was asking Martin about the next one too , lets do the meet eat and cruise again ?

Just because it costs more doesn't mean it is better. I use the same Mobil product on the wife's fpv xr8. Which is a truck motor fitted with quad over head cams. The service period on it is 15000 and it goes black after about 10000 so? My besty is the service manager at midway ford and a mechanic with over 30yrs experience including owning his own business and building some crazy engines. He recommended this for the rb25.

The foreman in his shop had a r33 gtst that made umpteenth horsepower for years and said this was right aswell. A oil and filter change is like $120 bills max so just do what your comfortable with and keep a eye on it!

I would like to come to this and meet you guys! I was at racewars but sort of used it to watch cars climb mountains and be with my son. When we were in Albany he was like. Are the skyline people here? Why don't you get on Sau, does eliali really have a R35 can we have a look at it? Is it the colour change one out the front of the motul tent. Are u sure it's not hers dad. I can't believe she's got a 35. Too many years of watching initial D.

Who else on here loves initial D, got every episode on DVD. My family thinks I'm Bunta.

Growing up in a bogan family I was always teased for liking imports. My brothers all had big falcons etc... Initial D was my escape. Still watch it all the time.

If you are changing please try Moty first

Its all about what grade of oil it is from cude
ie. Is it triple refined oil.? Etc....
Then what addictives are added during blending.
.
I buy from LSA oil local guys hear !
They said to me most fully synthetic oil they have is hi-syn 5w 30 they also said nothing is 100% synthetic coz its all cude its all about how many times it refined n fracked. Then the addictive.

So i buy Hi-SYN 5w30 then i add liqui moly MOS2 im still researching if i can blend a 0.4um ceramic compound there is a name but cant remember it we have it at work 1kg of this grease blend is $2k

We use it for dooms day to get the machine some time till the parts arive!!!!!!. [emoji4]

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
