Hey guys, my friend has an n15 sss pulsar, and his washer on his rim has been damaged getting a threaded nut off. Now if anyone doesnt know what im talking about, which i have found to be the case half the time, when you take off ur wheel u will see it at the rear of the wheel. and u punch it out from behind, it has a spline on it. If anyone has one that will fit his rim, plz let me know. Urgently need to find one, 3 nuts are only able to be put on.

yellow is usually illumintion from my experiences and red always power, easiest way to find out, earth the guage, turn ur parkers on, find ur illumination wire (if u havent already) and touch the wire, now if it lights up, its illumination, and if it powers up (seeing the lights are on) well then its power. Just be careful and if u cut any wires, always have the battery unplugged, i know it can be annoying running to the back of the car all the time, but ... its safety first !

Hey guys, I am writing this up in order to help some people out there that don't want to get ripped off getting their turbo timer installed by an auto elec. Now, firstly the turbo timer I installed was a HKS type 1 turbo timer, so some slight differances may occour . Things You will need : Turbo Timer Wiring harness (best not to chop your loom if you can help it) Wire strippers (You will need to strip 0.75mm wire) wire connectors. Side cutters wire crimpers Phillips Head screw driver shifter or small socket set Black electrical tape. Pateince, and care !! Now firstly you will have to remove the steering column surround, as stated in other guides on here. Now look at the back of the key barrel, there will be a 6 pin plug at the back of it, now simply unplug it, and plug the wires into the harness u have, and plug it back into the key barrel. Now before continuing, i made sure i had power and ignition still. So give it a try. Now tidy up all the cables and make them neat under the dash. Plug the wiring harness into the turbo timer unit iteself. Now, connect the earth to any metal surface. To know that its working have the ignition on, the plug connected into the turbo timer, and once u earth it. It should power up. Connect it. ( i installed mine in the ashtray so i ran my earth wire to the screws holding the gearbox boot down. Right next to my stereo one . Now, for the handbrake wire. This is where the fun starts. take apart the gearbox surround, and continue to undo the centre console and completely remove so you can see the parking brake wire. Its on a switch. Now i unplugged this and soldered it onto the plug itself. But you can connect it closer to the dash simply by following the correct wire. Now, get the ecu out, which for me (r33 gts-t) was in the passenger kick panel. Now i disconnected the battery before continuing from here on in. take the kick panel off, and undo the bolts holding the ecu in position. Now you can unplug the wires from the ecu so you have a little bit more movement (there isnt much). Follow the guide, cut the correct wires, taking lots of care that you are actually counting the plugs in the unit and not the amount of wires. Say the diagram says the bottom row, 4th from the end. You may have ||.| (| - indicates wire, . indicating now wire) The wire on the left will be the one to cut. I nearly got caught out this way so just take your time and care. Connect all the wires using the crimpers and connectors you had, neaten up all the wires as you see fit. Put everything back together again and enjoy your new fully connected turbo timer Please download these files before continuing. Ecu Ecu plugs Any questions please don't hesitate to ask Best of luck !

i reckon some one has just put that in the back of the cluster, and with your boost guage, i installed my boost guage myself, when connecting the constant make sure u connect the right one. And when i turn the car off, it ends up reading 1psi, but as soon as i turn the car on it auto zero's itself and is back to zero. ive got an autometer tho, so its possibly different

Ill get a write up as soon as i can ... mite have some time tonight, or perhaps it wil be done on the weekend *sigh*

Gearbox Oil Change
Coupe-This replied to Jay95R33's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
well, first of all, get a socket that will fit, and get under there, with a decent socket, and use the force pretty much. That red stuff u can see is most likely locktite, and will make it rather hard to undo. but once it starts, u should have no problem. u can also try and squirt it with some wd40 or similar to loosen the parts up. -
Im still confused, u have all these mods, and dont have a boost guage? wouldnt u think to put a boost guage on before slapping cash on other mods. ? It can you know, be sorta handy ...

Hey guys, ive been bored recently and i ended up making up a logo for the front windscreen to go in the top passenger side corner. I have attached a link to the file, what does everyone think? any changes to be made ... could we get this along with the www.skylinesaustralia.com stickers made up ? This could help identify all those with SAU. I will probally get one for my car, as its nice and discreet. But still noticable. What do ya's all think? And hopefully the picture works. Oh and the background would of course be transparent.

How much torque can you get from an RB20/25/26?
Coupe-This replied to T0nyGTSt's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
if u want torque, buy a v8 -
well they have never done this to me before, and my last car was a rather loud thumping v8. So im just confused as to why. hopefully its just to check out my details

hey guys, i just got pulled into a random lets set up a booze (couple cop cars) thing on the roadside coming home from work. Now i dont have a gripe with the cops cause they were fine, but one thing that struck me odd, is that the cop took down my details, like my liscence and rego n shit, well i dont know how much he wrote down but yeah. Would this just to do a reg and license check later on or as i am thinking, i mite be getting an epa letter in the mail :s what do you guys think? and if i do get one, how do i know if its over the limit or not, i never installed the exhaust so i wouldnt know :s
-
its not that hard to connect the other wires up, just need to have pateince, and take your time doing it to make sure its done correctly. Im surprised the automatic timer function works :s ... mine didnt until i connected the rpm sensor into the ecu. I have all the wiring diagrams if you want one just ask me. leave ur email address on here, and ill send u the pdf file

you can find complete rb30e motors on ebay for next to nothing, rip off the head, flog that off. And whamo. you have an rb30 block.

I can answer this question, i just finished installing my hks type 1 turbo timer, which has an automatic timer on it. It actually gets the countdown from the rpm, if you read up on it, it goes up and down depending on what rpm you have it on. Say u flog it for five minutes, and then sit in traffic for 2 minutes the auto timer function may say something along the lines of 30seconds. I assume u did not install the turbo timer. and i commend u on that. it was a painful job esp when u have to splice into the ecu wires Does it display ur speed etc?? anyways, hope this has helped.

Hey guys, im in the market to grab a s/s cat convertor and found one on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...4552808938&rd=1 The guy reckons they flow 9l ... would this be right, and would this be a good buy, i do not know what sort of stainless its made of, but will know when i receive an email back from him. Any help?

Hey guys, i just finished installing my turbo timer, and for some reason, now when i put my seatbelt on, the light goes off, but if the seat belt wiggles and goes up or down the light will go on, and off, is it just not locking properly or is it a switch problem or what? i can hear a solonoid or something clicking up near where the seatbelt is connected to the pillar. Any help is appreciated

Hey guys, i just received my wiring harness for my r33 gtst to hook up my hks type 1 turbo timer, now before having a look, getting stuck under the dash and cracking the shits, would anyone know where abouts the plugs connect into?
-
Hey guys, i just have some accross the idea before, but being made for a commonwhore no doubt, but the idea is there, and i could organise fabrication of these if there is anyone interested. A pipe to bolt into the position of the cat with an exit dumping right there, onto the ground, no resonator, no muffler, just dump pipe and then exit. It could be made any thickness. Prices, well i dont know yet, i was going to make one up for my r33 gtst in the future, when i get the rest of my exhaust, but if there were a few ppl interested, i could make up a few more These items of course would not be legal for use on the street and would only be used for the drag strip or track work.

just a stupid and may be highly annoying ordeal to do. You may be able to just weld it back up, if you know anyone that is handy with a mig, or better yet a tig (less sparks) You would of course have to take out the clutch master cylinder, and also any carpet you have, or put a welding blanket down, then again, i dont know how hard it is to get in there, may be very difficult ... what model is it?
