Clean Line - It Sucks Not Having Water To Wash Cars


Recommended Posts

VERY INTERSTING READ GUYS.

GOT A QUESTION FOR YA WATERLESS USERS

how long would 1 bottle last?

and how much would u use to do 1 wash e.g. 1/2 the bottle?

R34 Mac

What brand of product are you useung and are you using like a rag of something or polishing cloth???

Also where do you buy yours from and how much per bottle???

Latslly how many full car wash's do you think you can get froma bottle???

Im thinking keep a bit of this in the car for when i go to western QLD where there is no car washs ad the car gets really dirty...

I bought a Meguiars Waterless carwash kit. Basically it comes with a spray squirter thing of speed detailer, 2 cloths to apply it with and 2 polishing cloths for buffing the stuff out. I think the kit is 20something dollars but thing is when you run out of the spray, you just need to buy a new bottle - which you can get seperately. I do the car almost every weekend and the bottle lasts me about 4 or 5 months.

If the car gets really dirty (gritty shit like mud) I'd be a bit worried .. probably just need to shoot more spray on the panel before you start wiping it around.

WOW that sounds like its cheaper than going to a car wash...

Ill give it a go and see how she works...

As the water tanks here at home are not always full either (had no water for about 3 months) so this would be great for tough times...

    • Hey @Butters, did you end up getting this clutch in ? I have just ordered to a uniclutch track to go in my getrag 6 speed that’s in my BNR 32     
    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?
    • This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.
    • I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
