sunshine is great imho its the best around not sure of the address but its just near the tattoo shop/old ford holden shob on the HWY opposite side to Hyperdome/Fitzys Go over the overpass from fitzys(bryants road) turn right at the new round about and its like 50m down street on right

sunshine is complete self service at night - 3 manual wash bays one automatic, vending machines, coin machine, 4 vacumes, 1 tap

they charge $3 to chamois the car dry during the day!

you used to be able to do this sequence on the buttons (presoak>foambrush>presoak>presoak>presoak) and get 5 min free car wash - they worked out someone leaked the code and changed it!

I work for a Sunshine Auto wash (not logan but I know the guy) but i dont car about ppl useing buckets and that just as long as u dont piss fart around like ppl when its busy. As for the foam brush I use them all the time when I wash my car and its never scrached my car as longs as they have good amount of car and u rinses them I rinse mine ever hour if possible. as for the hose they should be soft rubber but that not always the case. I recomend holding bout 2inchs and then going from there

I always take a bucket with me, but I'm quick at washing my car as well, much quicker than people bashing at their car with the broom lol

The way to fill your bucket is put the sponge in first, then put the pressure sprayer hard into the sponge.....the water just permates through the sponge without blowing everything away. Make sure you use the hot soap setting :thanks:

Wouldnt that screw your sponge though after a while :S

Can we not wash our own cars at home anymore???

Even if its on our lawn and on certain allowed days?

Or is it completely banned now?

Dont quote me. But I think its just buckets, filled directly from the tap. Technically you cant even use a high pressure cleaner with its sucker hose in the bucket.

Double check it tho, as that might have been level 4.

And before anyone complains toowoombas level 5 its illegal to lay new turf. Our level 5 is near on pointless.

Yeah you can still wash it with the bucket, but not for long, level 6 is just around the corner and that's a whole new ball park.

Its a total ban on washing cars in Brisbane with level 5 dude....u can only clean mirrors, headlights and windscreens...

Sorry yeah thats it.

Its something stupid. Like lights, wing mirrors, front and rear windscreens. And front door windows. But not the rears. But you have your bucket of water anyway...

do what im doin and bypass the whole water ban crap and move south of the border!! i used to wash my car everytime i stayed over at sals mums place but now that im saving for my holiday back to ireland were moving there until i go so i can wash my car everyday if i want, with a hose!!! (cept for big water bills which i dnt wana pay lol) no fines as theres no restrictions and its only 5mins over the border!!! hahahahaha pwned

    • For sure the later RB26 variants had a different setup (6 cam voltage sender?), but the RB25DE/DET share the same ECU pinout/PCB footprint, and at the ECU plug it ends up being 'throttle sensor in' & 'throttle sensor out' (to A/T TCU) ...you stick a multimeter on these pins and you'll find them directly connected (0 ohms) ; I had an pair of Nissan ECUs on the bench long ago, and I noticed this throttle sensor in/out link, actually linked to an op-amp ...which was unpopulated on the NA board, but present on the T board and I went 'ah-ha!' in some moment of clarity... ...it wouldn't surprise me if they changed strategy here though (in the software and actual monitoring of this signal), because they did with other stuff (A/T signals).. and 0.45v as a trigger point makes sense, as that's what the external TCU units expect at idle ; kudos, thanks for that insight...I suppose it boils down to whether or not Consult can display real time data of that signal's voltage... ...in any event, it presents the same target...ie; rotate TPS unit to achieve 0.45v to suit both ECU&TCU, and where do you goto from there? Just disconnect TPSwitch connector and/or that plus TPSensor connector....or do you go for the throat and disconnect IACV solenoid and see if it still stalls? (probably throws a recoverable fault code and goes for default idle strategy?)...
    • I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it. 
    • MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
    • Thank you all for you assistance. I contacted Nistune regarding the support for the RB20DE along with my ECU Code (23710-10U00). They do have a map for it and added the RB20DE as a purchasable option now as well. They also added Malta as a Billing and Delivery options as this was missing. I was honestly amazed at their quick response and action, it took less than 24 hours. I also looked again at direct fit options for injectors, just in case I were to replace them. DeatschWerks seem to use a Bosch EV14 base and makes ones that fit mine at 440cc lowest, but also have 550cc at the same price. I tried looking for other direct fit options and managed to find one (also Bosch EV14 based) which includes a plug and play adapter on ebay. Did a small test with a Noid Light on the troubled injectors and all seems good, so they are pulsing properly electrically. One weird part is that they are missing on the same two cylinders as before I got the injectors cleaned. Mechanic also found this weird as he did not label the injectors and it is unlikely to have the faulty injectors be installed in the same cylinders.
