Hey guys I have got some scff marks on my car. Theres also a few spots which are "dirty" or brown in colour but no matter how much a sponge it, it doesn't go away. Will a clay bar do anything? Have a look at the pics. Sorry I took some tonight. If you look around the nissan badge it's a bit smudgey.

Any help would be appreciated.

Call Antonio at Waxit.com.au 9330 2177, they have small bottles of polishes, explain to him what its for and order a bottle and a hand pad that they have in stock (much better than just a applicator).

I just use jiff some people say its to abbrasive but ive never had problems after uding it snd it gets off anything.

Never had problems until you continually use it and end up with no clear left its WAY to abrasive, and if you had an eye for paint you would see substantial swirls and marring where used.

NO WAY I WOULD EVER USE OR RECCOMEND USING IT ON SOMEONES CAR.

its just as cheap and ALOT better to buy Poorboys SSR1 and a hand polishing pad from Waxit so why not do it properly, dont see the point in spending so much money on a car and have your pride and joy just to skimp on proper maintinence....but thats just me maybe.

Everything comes out :) you just got to know what to use and how.

I strongly suggest calling Antonio at Waxit.com.au ask about the hand polishing pads and little polish bottles and they will come out :)

Mitch

      Is this pressure plate warped? And do I need a new one?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Pretty simple question. I was about to put the transmission back in and thought I pretty much had it lined up when I noticed it seems like the pressure plate isn't flat. I was pretty careful when undoing the bolts both during initial disassembly for cleaning and when torquing them up for installation so this is pretty discouraging. I'm not sure if I accidentally bumped the pressure plate with the input shaft and bent it somehow or if it just showed up this way. Is it possible that there's just something obvious I'm not doing correctly? I'm pretty sure I was extremely careful to make sure the friction discs were seated correctly in the hub, everything lined up, flywheel torqued according to sequence, the little springs all sitting correctly in their seats, etc.  What's the play here? Do I jump straight to a new pressure plate?

      OK. I can see that being the case. But if you live in the land of "only switching between 4.08, 4.11, 4.36" like most Skyliners, then you never encounter it. Now I perhaps understand why the crownwheel is thicker on some of the smaller numerical ratio diffs. The two stubs being the same (unequal) lengths and just swapped side to side between the different cases is a new one to me. I'm hating Nissan R200s more than ever now.

      Reason I say this is I have seen broken ones, in drift, drag and even behind a stock Z. I do appreciate most of the time its the synchro's that go.   Trouble with quoting HP is it doesn't really say how strong the box is.  I've not seen many CD00X box's make it past a mid 9(150mph) I have seen about a stock R33 RB25 box's run a 9 too, they all go boom at some point though.   Another clue is they make gearsets for CD00X box's too, wouldn't be a market if they didn't break or have a limit people are going past.   I totally agree it is a strong box, just have to weigh up the true total cost of the conversion vs rebuilding with a good gearset.

      What makes you say CD009 boxes are not as strong as you would think? I've always been told the last revision (CD00A) is good for 1000whp and I have no issue's believing it when comparing one side by side with an RB25 box. Makes them look tiny.

      I picked up an open Center with shafts. I was told the Open shafts will fit a mechanical LSD and looking at them. I think they will work. Will update
