Want to remove the GTS25T sticker on the back of the car (on the boot lid), however I know it's going to leave a mark on the car as the sticker has probably been on it since it was born.

Just wondering if anyone can recommend a good cleaning product that would remove the marks from off the paint, without damaging the paint work at all?

I'm a big fan of eucalyptus oil - gets stickers off the car sooo easy and leaves no residue!

Just dab a bit of it onto a cloth, press it into the sticker, in particular around one corner. If that corner comes up (with some gentle picking) peel it back slowly while wiping under the sticker with the cloth.

I'd think that over the past 15 or so years the paint may have faded a bit underneath.

eucalyptus oil damaged the clear coat on our last paint job....use wax and grease remover and wash afterwards with car wash.

In removing the body kit on my R32 GTR to facilitate getting at some rusty spots, I had to clean off the double sided mounting tape. It was recommended to me by a friend to use metho. Seems to have done the job. No sign of damage to the paint or clear coat either. I figured it didn't matter so much where I was doing it as it was going to be hidden by the body kit when it goes bck on. I would have thought metho would have damaged the paint. Seems all it did in my case was soften the glue. I still had to use a stiff thumbnail to scrape the glue off.

Cheers,

If you CLR on it for a little while u will completely rip off the paint. I used clr to clean my intercooler, even though i covered my front bar, i got some on it. And peeled the paint off

      TPS voltage RB25DET

      By BASHERnissan · Posted

      Hi guys my TPS voltage is reading over 2v at idle.  My Haltech ECU is reading around 40% throttle position at idle also which is really strange. Note the actual throttle position sensor is brand new…    anyone have any experience with this or know how to calibrate it on Haltech ?

      Cas issue

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      The OEM disk will not work on any AEM ECU, you need to use the one they made. You shouldn't have to flip the CAS or whatever you were describing, if you set the ignition sync offset correctly it can't backfire. Make sure you're using a spark plug lead on coil 1 instead of the timing loop to avoid weird issues with the timing light. Double check that your timing settings are actually correct, like is the 24 tooth configured correct or should it actually be 12 teeth for 1 crank revolution? I also found this: 305817248-AEM-Undocumented-Settings-v1-2.pdf

      Yeah, I don't believe the M35 uses a deadhead system.

      Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.

      Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).
