Supraleeturbo Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share Posted May 4, 2016 You will love this when it's done mate I was a little worried when I was reading up and people were saying they are a bit agricultural etc etc but I'm glad I done mine and think it's one of the best mods Ive ever done as well as going single turbo car is a treat to drive and I just love it.

Supraleeturbo Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 (edited) so after picking the car up on friday i didnt have much time to drive her but come saturday me,lads from srd and a few other pals went for a hoon and ended up in a nandos in maidstone witch was a lot of fun. So sunday evening i gave the old girl a quick wash using the purified water we use at work and a dry with deep pile microfiber. Heres some pics as i know you all like pics Edited May 9, 2016 by Supraleeturbo (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew K Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Looking good Lee and glad your enjoying the car now it's had its 6 speed fitted. I've been looking into getting a water resin vessel as we have hard water round my way (chalky) is this something you've used or just bought some purified water home from work?

Supraleeturbo Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 Looking good Lee and glad your enjoying the car now it's had its 6 speed fitted. I've been looking into getting a water resin vessel as we have hard water round my way (chalky) is this something you've used or just bought some purified water home from work? we have a purification system at home and we purify about 800-1000 liters a day. Its fantastic for the old paint work as its softer and leaves it streak free so you spend less time worrying about drying and more about the finer details. i do have a small number of people who get me to wash and prep there cars for show ect ie i have a 700hp gtr r35 thats is often a gust at goodwood and he all ways gets me to detail his car that morning or day before depending what he has done id say go for it and i can help you set it up ect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew K Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Sounds ideal what your using as it only has to be slightly to warm and it's impossible to wash my car without getting white drying marks all over it! Not easy to polish out either when it happens. Cheers bud i might take you up on that offer if I find one, I was looking at this on a detailing website. http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=104955&highlight=resin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
