DIY :action-smiley-069:

for all those interested by the way - i am about halfway through doing a full glass restoration on my car - i've taken pics of EVERY step involved. glass is now MINT like brand new...

i tried about 7 different products

ranging from different things that i researched.

such as: (a combination of)

vinegar diluted in water

stainless steel cleaner

shower power

CLR

a metal polish called "Purple magic"

mild steel wool

and lastly...

a $7 bag of weapons grade Cerium Oxide i aquired

my windows were like CHALK. absolutely covered in lime and bore stains.. and for those of you who know me - also know how obsessive compulsive i am about small details. so wait for the write up on what i did - you know there will be good results if i did it. :)

a man can dream...

as much as i love the rarity of the cefiro. it's a shame they were never added to the SEVS list.. i would be bidding on this if i could :action-smiley-069:

5MT L-A31

all it needs is a matching bodykit and an owner that will love it :) shame it's a 1992.

Nic - i'd love to come help but every night this week i'm getting punched in the face instead.

be honest - which of you would forgo your cefiros for a gloria?

personally i would in a heart beat ... they're getting pretty cheap now too.. maybe if the cefiro sells i might be in the market for one.. who knows..

four doors rule..

cimas are too bulky. laurels are too old.. gloria - looks sporty and classy at the same time. and as you can see there. they're fkn badass. interior is like sex (well what i've HEARD about sex at least - never had it myself, wouldn't know)

There are some Cefiro's getting around in Perth that came in under SEVS.

That pearl pink one, is a 91 or 92, SEVS (somehow), imported a few years ago....just look up old stock on the Imports101 website.

I'd love a C35 Laurel if they were pillarless. Factory manual, with leather trim, and a sunroof. I'd do things for that experience.....bad things.

anyway as i was saying i did.. Well STARTED and got upto about halfway on restoring my glass... Mine was.. Really really... Realy bad.

We have gnarley bore water around here plus it was already in bad shape from jpan

Anyway. Before and after pics of one window.. This was not FINISHED by the way.. It had only has the oxide powder applied and not my final 2 stages.. :action-smiley-069: what you think?

wonder kit type 1 or type 2?

I'm thinking of ordering a type 2 front bar from aaron... Oi did you get your kit locally or from jap?

I think i want new front bar mine is too cracked and brittle to justify fixing :P

How much you buy?

Wonder kit for my rig now :D will look niaceeeeee Found some more motivation for the project :(

Bout time dude!! Pic's are needed once your home...

Might get off my ass and get the 34 going this wkend. Just got some 35's for the Patrol so money is gone again :P

neil ur a bad bad man, and eps i think its the shadow dunno bout type 1 or 2 as they aint got diffrent ones on there site. it looks like this http://wonderworld.ocnk.net/product/103 i think anyway, i picked it up in the dark brought it home and now im flying out 7 am in the morning so will have to wait till im home next week, :P

i got it locally secondhand real cheap cheap :D very pleased to say the least,

iv banged the rear bar, and one skirt on and i think to get the wheels to tuck nice i will be about 5mm of the ground with the skirts, will look uber hot but uber gay with driveways trailers and the rest of them nasty shit things we have.

    • It is an absolute lottery. They can and have died at stock boost with low usage at all. The turbos are now anywhere up to 36 years old!
    • Huh, wonder why it blew then. I never really beat on the car THAT hard lol I dailyed it and the turbo blew after 6 months
    • That's odd, it works fine here. Try loading it on a different device or browser? It's Jack Phillips JDM, a Skyline wrecker in Victoria. Not the cheapest, but I have found them helpful to find obscure parts in AU. https://jpjdm.com/shop/index.php
    • Yeah. I second all of the above. The only way to see that sort of voltage is if something is generating it as a side effect of being f**ked up. The other thing you could do would be to put a load onto that 30V terminal, something like a brakelamp globe. See if it pulls the voltage away comepletely or if some or all of it stays there while loaded. Will give you something of an idea about how much danger it could cause.
    • I would say, you've got one hell of an underlying issue there. You're saying, coils were fully unplugged, and the fuse to that circuit was unplugged, and you measured 30v? Either something is giving you some WILD EMI, and that's an induced voltage, OR something is managing to backfeed, AND that something has problems. It could be something like the ECU if it takes power from there, and also gets power from another source IF there's an internal issue in the ECU. The way to check would be pull that fuse, unplug the coils, and then probe the ECU pins. However it could be something else doing it. Additionally, if it is something wired in, and that something is pulsing, IE a PWM circuit and it's an inductive load and doesnt have proper flyback protection, that would also do it. A possibility would be if you have something like a PWM fuel pump, it might be giving flyback voltages (dangerous to stuff!). I'd put the circuit back into its "broken" state, confirm the weird voltage is back, and then one by one unplug devices until that voltage disappears. That's a quick way to find an associated device. Otherwise I'd need to look at the wiring diagrams, and then understand any electrical mods done.   But you really should not be seeing the above issue, and really, it's indicating something is failing, and possibly why the fuse blew to begin with.
