I'm sure Jase - JET-R32 could hold a car detailing night at his workshop? :)

Jase?

Where are you buddy? :D

Something like that would be great, I'm really looking to learn about using tools to get rid of scratches and how to touch up paint chips.

Once the paint is up to spec, I've got it covered, have done my car with Zaino and am quite happy with it. But wouldn't have a clue about prepping bad paint .

This is the last time i used Zaino on the V35, but this was easy cause the paint is in great condition.

That 32 paint looks scrumptious Jason too bad we were in different groups, would have been good to see it moving.

I left the white boot polish on my GTST after a hillclimb once and it rained on it... it ran down over the paint and once it dried, there was no washing it off, it will have to be buffed out now, so careful it doesnt get wet, run down and dry.

A true master never strikes a student ( unless a numb-skull ), next time we do your car I will make you hold 2 buckets of soapy water with your arms out level at shoulder hieght ( so I don't need to bend down to soak the spounge ) for the duration of the wash, roughly about 1hr :) .

J/Ks Tinks you know I'll sort it out for you & ofcourse Dj Brave aswell :wave: .

Hai Michele :no: , sometimes a light polish will solve the problem depending if has penetrated into the clear coat, there's more than one way to skin a cat so Evil weevil told me :teehee: .

    • I agree on doing some better than factory pistons, rods, and oil pump. For anyone using the vehicle on the road, I don't get why everyone wants big cams. The stock cam profile, with some more lift would be mint for road usage. Everyone going big cams and then wondering why it isn't as responsive in traffic, when they've shifted the torque curve upwards an additional 1000RPM. Make torque, at lower RPM. Sure it's not as cool as claiming "500KW" and revving it to 8,0000RPM, but that same torque 2,000RPM earlier... Then you don't need the extremely high end pistons and rods, and blah blah blah.
    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear! Stock quantities: NA1 Honda NSX - 1 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1990-na1-honda-nsx 1973 Toyota Celica LB 2000GT - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1973-toyota-celica-lb-2000gt 1968 Mazda Cosmo Sport - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1968-mazda-cosmo-sport 1970 KPGC10 Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1970-kpgc10-nissan-skyline-2000gt-r
