So the car has been polished 2 month ago. I wanted to try new wax and take off the 2 month old tiny swirls.

Just did a jeweling:

Makita 9227c
SSR1 with a polishing pad. Speed 2 and 3.
Black magic Metal Polish on wheel/muffler tip
1 coat of Black Hole (all over the car)
2 coat of Klasses High gloss sealant ( 24h cure between coat)
2 coat of High Gloss sealant on Wheel
2 coat of Wheel sealant
1 coat of Natty RED
1 coat of Natty Blue
Carsystem Trim Restorer ( 3 coat, 24 h between coat)

From what I can see it looks good but anytime you post such huge pictures you make you audience have to horizontal scroll, which means they can never really see the entire car because as they horizontal scroll to one side the image falls off the screen on the other side, thus they can never see your entire car. Heck I have a 24" monitor and I still have to horizontal scroll!


Try resizing to around 700 to 800 pixels wide before uploading to your photo host imageshack, it will use up less room in your account so you can host more photos there before deleting old ones to make room for new ones. (Which then leaves red x's everyone the deleted photos were posted).


I use Easy Thumbnails as I resize a lot of images for the above reasons. It's free and works great.


Easy Thumbnails Website


Here are some samples,

This is 500 pixels wide

This is 600 pixels wide

This is 700 pixels wide

As I can make the time I'll add a tutorial on how to use Easy Thumbnails but it's not that hard to figure out and you can use these skills on ANY forum for the rest of your life.

Off topic.... Why Nissan doe's not sell these in the USA beats the heck out of me. Nice car.
 
Nissan couldn't sell them in the states because safety/emissions were more restrictive here than elsewhere. They just couldn't get it to pass emissions so they left it out of the market. Because of the US law, though, the cars will soon be legal to import and register (happens when the car is 15+ yrs old) and then if the emissions equipment is modified enough to conform to US standards than the car could be driven legally as well.

Wrong, only certain cars can be brought in. The R32 and R33 is legal to bring in, in most states. Also its not just emissions, its mostly safetly. Alot of JDM cars dont have the crash resistant panels like USDM cars do.
 
Haha. it's just an amazing car. the fact that this 20 yr old car still beat 90% of the car on the street is amazing. Nissan really made a super car in the 90.

Isnt it sad. Some of the best cars produced around the world ever are already either considered antique or are within a few years of being antiques!

Well, it make sens when you think about the price jacked petrol and the ecologic-oriented car. No more place for super car like theses.

doesnt even have to be considered by performance standards. most classic us muscle cars, where 6cly with option 350's, 383's, 454, 427, 460 performance motors. including early 90's JDM cars. which all had a option turbo and non-turbo motor! but I am more considering greatness by both exterior and interior! some of the best looking cars from japan, europe and america are all older cars!
