Hey all, just found the answer to a common import issue. Gross, yellow or cloudy headlights. Great product by invison, the headlight restoration kit. All I can say is that it is amazing. Saved me so much money. Took all of two hours including drying time, easy to follow guide and everything comes in the box, $45 from autobarn. My headlights look like new.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!

I have just used a buffer and a fine cut paint cleaner (probably similar to swirl remover) when doing it on other people's cars, it lasts years before it starts to go yellow again, and you could probably just wax it when you wax the car to help protect from UV.

The fine cut cleaner works well on tail lights too. They don't normally go yellow, but they do lose their gloss finish after a while

Buffer does nothing its just a quick fix. The kit has a UV protected which "help prevents" it happening again.

I've done a few cars with this method, I don't think it's a quick fix. Some have been done for over two years and there as good as new.

LOL everytime this issue comes up I reach for the

I'm in the U.S atm. How much is the Meguiar's in Australia?

I bought this http://www.fastbritereviews.org/ for around $12. Tempted to buy the 3M restoration kit to compare as its around $20. The Meguiar's is around $6 though they also sell the full Meguiar's restoration kit as well.. would be interested in buying one other, maybe putting tape through the middle and try both on each side.. or maybe not.. :whistling:

There is so much to buy here lol, maybe if I have the chance may get the G35 Battery Trim/Cover which will save on shipping. Wouldn't mind buying one from a wrecked G rather than new.

    • 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.  
    • Nice, let me know how you find the 98 tune
    • Put a hand on an injector and see if that's what the buzzing is. You might be triggering the injectors by moving off idle command.
