Hey guys,

Just curious what's the best chamois to get?

What brand?

What type (synthetic/leather)?

Where to get it?

I have a cheap synthetic and it's a waste of time. Grandad was here the other day and lent me his leather one that dad used to use when he was a teenager (read :it's 30+ years old) and it was awesome! Too bad the container had lost it's label over the 30 years, so I don't know the brand.

Thanks

Chris

Get an Oats brand one. When my mum was doing Enjo thats the only thing that was better, was the chamois. We have the enjo one tho, works ok, so if the oats one is better, should be good. I think bunnings or BigW would have them.

regarding chamois

as a detailer i have used a lot of good chamois and a load of utter crapp. the best chamois are the enka-fill or oats. perferated ones are very absorbant, but hold dirt, by far the best ones to get are the new microfibre ones there expensive but they are awesome.

it is vital to take car of your chamois so they take car of your paint. after every use rinse it out.

and another thing any one whi uses an enjo on a car should be SLAPPED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The small one was $13, the large was $23.

I got it from "Auto1" not sure if it is a generic parts store in other areas or not? (I am in Newcastle NSW)

It's a orange bottle, so it's pretty obvious.

The Enka and Oates are the same thing. I got the impression from this thread they were different, but Oates is the brand and enka-fill must be the model or something.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
