Love that track, must download again!

Im laughing so hard and speachless at the same time

That is farged up Dohmar, puts Jessica to shame

Tool of the week

Apart from my wife, when I see Jessica I feel a flutter in my pants

Show your current wallpaper people, no cheating, just whatever/whoever you currently have on board I tell my wife that apart from her, Jessica is the hottest girl getting around, even if she is a Ranga

If anything you can 1200 grit wet and dry sand it first, then buff it with compound, then buff with polish, then hand polish and it will be as good as it gets. In saying that bad paint is bad paint

I had x2 davies craig fans on my seven, push and pull setup, worked great but 4-500 bucks worth from memory. I got a feeling JRM might be onto something there and my car is running hotter than my guage says, need to suss out my cooling system before making any purchases me thinks

It will in most cases but really just depends on the condition of the paint to begin with. If you can see a lot of white around the edge of the faded section and you can see there isnt a lot of depth to the colour to begin with, chances are it wont bring it back

SOLD, PM sent

[quote name=ClutchBurndout-' timestamp='1320561346' post='6097171] get new clutch fan I know i need a new one, I was just venting lol. I have the worst luck with them, I reckon I have bought maybe 4-5 over the years on many various cars...

It really is great machine polishing. Its basicly like sanding back ever so finely but as the particles in the compound I use gets hot with friction they dissolve so it doesnt continuasly "cut" the paint back. Then I wash off the compound, then use a different pad and a polish instead of a compound to remove any marks from the cutting, wash again, then finish everything off by hand. The secret really apart from knowing how to use a buff correctly is the starting compound. Dont want to put marks in the paint that you cant get out again...

Stupid clutch fan is trying to keep up with my engine rpm. Its the second one I've put on my car since I bought it 2 months ago... Sounds like crap and takes power away from the engine. Only happens once engine is warm and on warmer days.

stupid forum said my post didnt work so I kept reposting........

Thanks mate. I dont have any previous pics! I really should have taken a couple. I couldnt stand the sight of her when my brother in law had it before me, he never cleaned it and it just sat in the driveway. I wanted to take it from him and just clean the thing you know! The minute I got it home for the first time i immediately cleaned it and just hand polished it to get me by until I bought myself a buff and some clay and did it properly. So I never got any before shots....

There was a rear brake hose recall because they were too short from factory, had many BA's towed in with no brake pedal The Territory had problems with the front hoses, and the focus had problems with the rear guard linings rubbing throught the hoses too lol

I was an advisor for Jarvis for a couple of years, the early BA XR6T are honestly rubbish, 4 speed auto is a wate of time dodgy box, dont bother. They started getting it right with the BF MK11 onwards, if you want auto the ZF 6 speed is awesome and as SLED said the FG is great. Really nice driving car and pretty quick out of the box. The BA has all the usual rubbish problems as any other BA such as; Brake rotors Dodgy 4 speed auto Window regs Diff bushes PCM failures BEM failures ICC failures And I'm sure there is many more but i tried to erase it all from my memory when I left I would start looking at BFMK11 as a minimum

Cheers fellas

Just finished clay barring, machine polishing, wash then hand polish. I detailed vehicles for many years about 6 or so years ago. Love doing it, just bought some equipment purely to do my car! So if anyone needs anything done in South Oz I can meet you and quote accordingly. Just shoot me a PM if you like. The paint on my car had not had any love in the 9 years my brother in law owned it for (He imported it himself) so it really needed some work. The clay bar was very brown by the time I had finished , it was so contaminated. It looks so much better now but unfortunately sometimes when not cared for its impossible to bring some areas back to life. You cant see it in the photos though! I should have taken some progress pics but oh well.

Bought this of my Brother in law a couple of months back. It had been let go pretty bad. I just finished clay blocking, machine polishing and hand polishing it, changing the front bar back to stock, fixing maifold leaks, fitted EBC, front shocks etc. Getting happier with it now, just want to change the wheels

Agreed. There are stacks of 31`s for sale cheap as now days. Your bound to find something clean. BTW my AM Staff rides in the back of my two door and loves it lol

Going from a 32 GTR to an auto 31? Whats gotten in to you Matty? Lol
