  1. grinding noise sounds like what i have between 2 and 2.5k rpm one every gear

    its related to the driveline somewhere but don't know where exactly, either clutch or gearbox is my guess but a few mechanics have heard it and said its not to worry about.

    Boost feels better at 3k coz thats when the turbz is starting to get a move on, under that and it feels gutless

  2. hey all just going to patch up my front bar and a set of eyelids i bought but i need to know how to go about it. usually all paint jobs i do end up looking dull and especially on FG

    so what would i be doing, sand back, patch up, putty up with body filler, sand dead smooth than paint with desired colour?

    should i use anything on nthe bare FG for the eyelids? theyre pretty rough so im going to use some filler and sand them so im happy with them but should i put anything before the paint or is the filler good enough?

    So up fro sale, save $70 compared to group buy price for brake+clutch

  4. update, replaced the bushes on the castor rods which didnt look too bad but there were some crack going half way around them (which were a nismo item btw) with some d-project ebay jobbie ones

    no knocking anymore, so far so good..

    were easy to replace as all you had to do was jack the car up, undo 3 buts on each side

    press out old ones bushes, press in new ones. Don't even bother if you don't have a press

  5. hey fellas got this bloody slow oil leak coming from the section that is at the back of the firewall on the passengers side right down low. theres oil on the plastic cover and all around those lines but im know sure if they are oil lines of some sort of its leaking from up above. Anyhow heres some crappy mobile pics

    are they my turbo oil lines or power steering lines?? i dont know... looks like motor oil though, not power steering fluid

  6. i have only done a head gasket on my old pulsar but its pretty involved and requires some mechanical knowledge and also tools

    just to replace the gasket would be pretty easy but it must have gone for a reason, so thats something to think about

    you would most probably have to machine/face the block and head so u get a nice flat surface

    someone else would know that has more knowledge than me

  7. as suggested above, custom return piping will cost you the average of $700 to over 1K than you gotta get the core... so in the end you end up spending more

    just bite the bullet and get the proper kit as it will fit 100% or just cut it and use any style kit... 180degree bends are no good for airflow anyhow so get a front facing plenum and get the best of both worlds lol

  8. you wont see the pump it is down the bottom of the tank

    usually theres a metal cradle that it sits on that is slid in a slot somewhere up the top... have a look better and you should see... probably follow the wires as they are most likely the positive and negative feed to the pump

    unless im completely wrong and an r34 is very different to r33
