I've got an R34 GT-T and after having it for a year the headlight seems to have some foggy stain on it. How do i get it to become clear and shiny again??? Please help it looks ugly

Use Meguires Scratch X or some mild abbrasive Cut and Polish..

BUT ONLY RUB IN ONE DIRECTION... VERTICLE STROKES OR HORIZONTAL STROKES... DO NOT RUB IN CIRCLES.... YOU WILL GET SWIRLS AND UR HEADLIGHTS WILL LOOK WORSE THAN THEY ALREADY DID....

Trust me.... my old man is a panel beater and spraypainter... and he warned me..

mine turned out pefect, people ask why i put new lights in...

>_<

I used Meguires Diamond Cut for the headlights, came up a treat. Yeah basically you need something with diminishing abrasives and a strong cutting compound.

Thanks guys, your help is greatly appreciated :D

      Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in

      Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.

      Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
