    Aaron's R36 Wagon

    Hey guys newbie here
    Had my R36 Wagon for just over a year now and couldn't be happier with it!
    Have the car a really good clean when I first got it as seen in photos and like to keep her clean

    Looking at doing some upgrades:
    Rims
    Cold air intake
    Drilled rotors
    Front lip
    Rear diffuser
    Exhaust

    Looking to meet some people from south east Melbourne for some drives around town
    Introduce yourself and let's drive

    Just used some good old warm soapy water and heaps of elbow grease, didn't last long with the amount of break dust I'm getting from the stock pads

    Thanks will give it a go. FYI ceramic pads minimize the dust on wheels.

    Niiice.

    Trick to keeping the wheels clean, is ditching the factory pads and discs for ATE Ceramic.

    They get so dirty so quickly
    I'm going to upgrade my breaks when my rotors need to be changed so I'll keep that in mind Aaron's R36 Wagon

    Ate all round for the win. Umai naa knows his stuff.
    That said great work on the detailing I doubt the inside of your rims have been that clean since they left the factory
