Ha! You never used it before? Its a must when washing your car. Watermarks suck, especially on darker cars.

Btw only the proper $20 ones (ie leather) do the job. The shitty $3 jobbies are nothing more than a damn cloth which don't hold any water at all! And trust me I've tried them all!

I might need to buy a leather one then lol

I hate that yellow oil stuff that some manufacturers put in their chamois'. I had one that wouldn't wash out for months! Left oily dots all over the car, and it always looked terrible.

Might have to try a Maguire's synthetic one? I thought that's the one I was complaining about, but i'll check.

hey...nothing wrong with the $2 chamois :)

Synthetic and also "great for car cleaning". Found it in a box on the floor at bunnings warehouse.

I use a chamois to soak up the water then wipe away the residue with a microfibre cloth, leaving that dry shiney look :P

Well mine cost me 3 bucks from Super Cheap... and its actually good. I saw others for 20 bucks im like "na too tight."

Kk ok... 3.50 cents! I splashed out :)

*steps back* :P

Seeing as this isnt the wasteland where we can whore might as well add some information, if any, to this reply.

For people who do not know what a chamois looks like :)

I could take some shots of its performance but im not that bored...yet :P

Haha. Another vote for the synthetic. I got mine in K-Mart and it works fine.

We are currently looking at getting some Skylines Australia Chamois made up for sale to the forum and club members.

    • Sell it and buy something newer? 😛
    • Better then PooPooG... or is it PeePeeG? 
    • The steering wheel on my 97 s3 gtr is a little bit worn out, so im on the hunt for something mint. I notice that this type of steering wheel is on several other nissan's of the era.  Does anyone know if their all identical, or are there slight differences? I feel like gtr tax applies to anyone selling one, but if it comes from any other car the price is much less, even though its the same design.  Chat gpt says the material for the gtr is slightly different and it says gtr on the wheel, but every pic ive seen it just says nissan. 
    • I might have to say it.
    • Ahh... it's an early RE5R01A box, that means the pinouts I gave are wrong (they were for the RE4R01A 4-speed box)... I'll have to dig around in my docs to see if I've got that schematic (they used the same gearbox plug, with the vacant pin wired to the direct drive clutch solenoid)...prolly hidden away in a supplement somewhere... ...there were 3 variants of the RE5R01A ~ this early schema was what we called the 'dumb' 5 speed ; it's what jatco called a 'medium duty' box, with torque holding up roughly ~200ft/lbs or so, which was good for NA from RB20/25DE and up to around VG30 output spec. With the RB25DET (and VG33/35 mills), the only options they had was the 4-speed 4AX00 box, which had been beefed up to handle the extra torque (primarily for the VG35, but it also suited the RB25DET mill and others)...and the RE4R03 box in large 4WDs a lot of the time... ...the next variant of 5-speed was redesigned, stronger, and 'smart'...first ones had external TCU with internal (on valvebody) Shift Control Unit, pressure switches, and 2 x TSS...and the last ones had internal TCU+SCU setup, with CANbus control etc etc. @DRoc81 On the RHS of the box towards the rear, there should be a stamped silver ID tag -- what's the model number? Oh...and with the early 5-speeds, the torque converter control solenoid assembly should be replaced as well (31940-60X00)...it's a bit Murphy's Law ....if one has failed, bet on the rest not being far behind ...
