Ha ha- well, after checking out the "fragrance fairies" (i kid you not) on offer at SuperCheap the other day, I'm sold!

My vote - I'd be happy to pay for a new car with leather interior smell : )

Not to mention helping a fellow SAU-er get a business going!

Those clip things here in perth are $4.50 from Kmart! they are by far the best. You get 4 per pack and I only use 2 on my vents at a time on the middle ones lasts about 2 months then use the other 2 for another two months! i buy them in black so you can barely even notice them..... so my car smell nice without some peace lovin hippy tree thingy floating around in plastic bashing the crap out of the plastic and giving me headaches....

clips are my favourite!

those ambi pure are $6 from Kmart.... Perth.... the home of cheap smelly stuff :-)

I love my Shell Lavender car deodoriser... its about 5 bucks, but goddamn it gets rid of any smell possible, comes in a vaporiser bottle (not one of those ugly things you hang on your vents which eventually breaks it), and smells awesome.

You got no option for "I like what I have and will take something that shoots fireworks and butterflies when I spray it to make me change"

I would never use an air freshener because of allergies (eye's water, cant see the road etc) but i reckon there'd be a huge market for smell neutralisers because even when i'm in a position to import a car from japan, one thing that's really putting me off the idea is getting stuck with an interior that smells of smoke, which i cannot stand...........and considering that the Japanese are some of the heaviest smokers in the world, i cant imagine the chances are that slim.

there must be a market for a oder killer product in the jap import market..........i'd definatly pay for a top shelf one that did the job if i needed it.

i used Febreeze every now and then in my r33 gtst (sold) to keep it fresh and an excellent odour/bacteria killer. Don't like air fresheners or such as it would leave a lingering smell. Now I got a Magna with leather interiors,but would still used it on the carpets and other fabrics parts.

    • You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before
    • OK, so a bunch of trim needs to come off to get to the rear shock top mounts. Once the seat is out of the way, the plastic trim needs to come off. Remove 2 clips at the top then slide the trim towards the centre of the car to clear the lower clip Next you need to be able to lift the parcel shelf, which means you need to remove the mid dark trim around the door, and then the upper light trim above the parcel shelf. The mid trim has a clip in the middle to remove first, then lift the lowest trim off the top of the mid trim (unclips). At the top there is a hidden clip on the inner side to release first by pulling inwards, then the main clip releases by pulling the top towards the front of the car. The door seal comes off with the trim, just put them aside. The the lighter upper trim, this is easy to break to top clips so take it carefully. There is a hidden clip towards the bottom and another in the middle to release first by pulling inwards. Once they are out, there are 3 clips along the rear windscreen side of the panel that are hard to get under. This is what the rear of the panel looks like to assist:
    • Yes. Autos typically work from the speed sensor on the pinion shaft of the diff. I also think that even if you have a proper speed sensor for the bog manual in the manual box, that the signal it outputs is not compatible with the auto dash anyway. You should consult that manual (the book, not the gearbox).
    • And I just realised that that advice is slightly nonsensical for a GTR, because you need 2 of them. But it is otherwise true.
    • Having had a reasonable look at the car, I'll be able to remove the (one time) rams and retract the hinge (they are held in the down location by a tiny (m3?) sacrificial screw) which will get it physically back in shape. From there if you remove the rams you need a resistor to turn off the airbag light (as Mark said, there are plug in kits and I might go that way because its reversible). And...per all the threads on here, even if you have the resistors to turn off the airbag light, the bonnet light will stay on as it writes to the airbag computer history - that is either replace the airbag controller, reprogam the EPROM (if I can work out how), or remove the globe from the dash. Having seen how sensitive this system is, if I had my time over I'd pre-emptively remove the rams, even on a road car, because this is all a very unnecessary pain in the arse. Reminds me, time to go and have a look at the Fuga too....
