Used this product on my r33's lights today, looks brilliant :dry:

Dad came and asked me if I actually bought new lights - told him (as a joke) "yeah cost me $400 for the pair", and right then and there i knew he was gonna yell at me - so I had to tell him that I was kidding :)

"Plastix" cost me around $20, and another $8 for 2 cloths (one for applying the "goo", and the other to clean it off after scrubing it)

Anyway here are some pics.

Only problem is, that whoever did the initial cleaning has stuffed up the plastic. There is still more cleaning to be done, but that will have to wait till after exams. For now I am quite happy with the result :D

dont expect it to last, it does a good job but I found I have keep applying it every month or so.

I guess, thats the same with anything really....but small price to pay for keeping the car in good condition :D

    • If you go 2.8, you're going to want bigger turbos. Scratch that. If you go 2.8, you're going to want one single larger turbo.
    • Definitely the stroker kit. once you mention you have a RB28 everyone will assume you will flog them and hopefully won't start asking about support mods. Anyone will be too scared to race you, except maybe the RB30 boys
    • Just a quick update: I decided to go ahead with the de-cat for now. The exhaust shop inspected the catalytic converter and said it was in good condition. I took a look myself, and it does not appear broken nor clogged. After the de-cat, the car feels more responsive and smoother. The shop also reinstalled the exhaust temperature sensor into the de-cat pipe, and now the warning light no longer comes on, even when driving hard. The only thing that’s bugging me is the tinny, “can-like” sound the exhaust makes now (similar to having a hole in the muffler). The shop suggested that I might need to replace the muffler. I'll have to think on what to do next.  
    • I want to start upgrading but don't have the budget to drop 15k at once, if i was to do one first which would be better and why?
    • Yuh. It is very rare for a single turbo to throw ceramic into the engine. Quite common on GTRs. As I posted above. Mine did destroy the O2 sensor on the way out though! Plastic compressor is fine with the temperature. It's not some flimsy PE/PET/PP thermoplastic. It's a thermoset resin with reinforcing material in it (a composite, as posted by @Lithium above). The compressor never sees much more than 100°C because it's never boosting very high. If you boost it high enough to make a lot of temperature, then the turbine will depart the scene and stop the party anyway.
