Josh Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Just given her a good wash. The wheels have too much brake dust on to get off with soapy water and a brush as I couldn't find my alloy wheels cleaner. Enjoy the pics! Tomorrow is a day to vacuum and possibly get a toothbrush to the engine bay oh and cleaning the wheels properly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was planning on getting a Trial rear when I was on the look out for a Supra but I'm going to keep this completely stock. Oh I am going to by a new exhaust, probably Nur Spec R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wantthatone Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 yes! love stock supras too, will you be doing anything to it like coilovers etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 Money well spent, Make sure you look after it. So far it's worth every penny. If it falls apart in a couple of weeks I'll be looking for my money back . Nah, seriously it was a great purchase and I love the car I'll keep maintenance up and make sure it's all good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 yes! love stock supras too, will you be doing anything to it like coilovers etc? It's all ready got Bilstein Yellows (iirc) and braided brake hoses. Also it has upgraded brake pads (not sure what kind, can't remember), first decat, EGR delete and I think that's it Other than the exhaust I'm going to keep it standard for a while, may go BPU in a year or so though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Looking good Josh A product to treat the plastics and tyres would look lovely against the red. Bilberry and clay should get the wheels looking good, and dont forget to put some wax on the paint tomorrow if you get a chance, seal your hard work in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What products would you recommend for cleaning? Thanks, the paint is pretty bright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty71 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Lol they wont sell bilberry in halfords And I would get some aerospace 303 on your plastic its looking dull Get some decent polishes and waxes and products and not from Halfords lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 For wheels i wouldnt recommend anything other than Bilberry. Its perfect safe for all wheel types, unlike the wonder wheels you will get in halfords, and can also be diluted to a required strength. A machine polish on that car would look stunning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A machine polish on that car would look stunning Well bignum gave it a good polish last Saturday before I bought it and as I gave it a wash today would that have washed the wax off the paint? I'll look into some Bilberry then I need to get the wheels refurbed as I was planning on just keeping them for track days and buying new wheels but I quite like them now so will look into refurbing them before doing anything too vigorous to them Thanks!

scotty71 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 http://www.polished-bliss.co.uk I get all my gear from here.....have a gander buy yourself the Kestral DAS-6 polisher. It will make your car go from mint looking to super mint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 Your best bet would be to make a trip down to Stonkin Lol, could do but how long would the results last for? A trip to West Sussex is a bit much for a clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
