Where Do You Wash Your Pride And Joy?


Recommended Posts

i dont wash my car anymore, i get it handwashed properly by other people. i used to go to the self serve car washes but it used to cost me alot and after i've finished its still dirty, none of them clean my black car properly.

I wash my cars weekly (minimum) at the car wash on the corner of Boundary Rd & Lower Dandenong Rd.

Some times I use Ezy Bay car wash in Highett because it's near my house, but they don't let you hand wash like the other one.

I get the indian dudes at magic carwash to do it for me

$15 and they do a good job everytime :)

is that the new one that opened up near burvale on springvale rd near burwood hwy

i wanna try it

is it expensice

Hey guys,

Just wondering where abouts (other than at home) you guys wash your rides?

I've only been to one hand carwash in Burwood and it seemed OK.

If theres anything that makes the place better than the rest, shout it out!

I use the sparkling car wash in Burwood. It's right near the Vicroads. Good for bucket washing when times are quiet. Always have fairly clean bays too, and plenty of space to chamois or clean/admire your car.

I wash mine at a self serve place called "Pitstop" on High street Reservoir - near the KFC and Caltex.

$2 for 2 mins. Reasonably clean bays, the soap seems nice and strong especially on Tuesday nights - I'm guessing this is when they re-stock.

They have hand wash service during business hours and weekends - but I've never used them for that.

Tends to get 'crazy' busy, especially when the weather starts warming up.

Anytime after 10PM it is deserted.

I usually wash my car there after a night out - around 2AM.

I wash mine at Budget car wash on Ballarat Rd. $1 for 2 mins, I always hand wash it and it cost me $2 to get the job done. $1 for 5min to vacuum, $2 to shine the inside. Cost me $5 all up to get the car pimpin!!

Correction - it is $1 for 2 mins NOT $2 for 2 mins.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
