  1. Rear main seal query for mechanically minded sau'ers

    Hi All,

    Took my skyline about 6 weeks ago to a new mechanic who has told me the rear main seal has a leak and needs to be replaced. While it was up on the hoist, he showed me a single drop of oil on the bottom. 

    However,

    1. it hasnt been losing oil

    2. as soon as he told me, i put some cardboard under the area where i park and in 6 weeks i havent had even one drop of oil fall onto the cardboard.

    So does the rear main seal need to be replaced? or is there another possibillity for why there would be a small amount of oil on the bottom of where the rear main is?

     

    Thanks for your help, id rather not spend a large wad of cash for something that might not be a problem!

  2. Hi all,

    A/C fuse keeps blowing. Several auto eleces have had a look and not been able to fix. Last one is know saying that the compressor is causing a short and needs to be replaced and partly because i dont feel like replacing it just to check he's right plus i cant actually find a second hand one, means im wondering if theres any way to know this is the actual cause and if theres any way it could be fixed without replacing.

    Bit more info; 10amp fuse blows nearly straight away, 20 amp lasts about 15-20 minutes. Clutch is engaging, everything is working fine when the fuse is still functional.

    Help please, i paid dollar bills ya'll to have this a/c installed (engine swap, had no ac originally) and havent had fully working ac for 2 years :(

  3. Not sure what sort of tyres you have, but I'd put at least 40psi cold in there. You can always let air out.

    Hey Mate,

    This sounds like the way to go, especially considering Calsonic14u's comments.

    fyi, ive got Gemstone 215's all round, on17's. I know what you're thinking....wtf, wat a noob. But they came with the car and like 95% tread so i thought id rpi them up quick then upgrade. Never anticipated the rain though :no:

  4. Currently have Autotecnica Monza sport seats in good condition (black/grey colour) in the R32 I just bought. Not very comfortable for me and am looking at getting some GTR stock seats in.

    If you have stock GTR front seats and want to trade for the Autotecnicas fine, or ill just buy some

    Or alternatively if you have some sport seats for sale, let me know.

    in Sydney

    Thanks!

  5. I have an R32 with RB25 in it except still has the RB20 box in it.

    WTB RB25 gearbox in good condition preferably with the customised driveline to suit the R32.

    Sydney area

    Thanks!!

    (also looking for to swap or buy front seats for R32, currently have Autotecnica Monza seats in good condition)

  6. Im goin overseas and have already sold the skyline.

    I have a brand new in the box hicas lock bar never used.

    I also have a good condition rear diff for R33 series II. The diff was pulled from a wrecked car that had 60,000kms on it. It is in good nick. I've got two 1.49mm diff shims that i bought ready to go into this diff for shimming, which you can have with the diff.

    I bought both too set the car up for drift but obviously never got round to it.

    I will sell these items cheap!! But you need to come pick them up asap from Freshwater in the northern beaches, SYDNEY. im busy organising stuff for my trip away so please give me a call if you want these items.

    i expect to sell them for around $80 for both, or around $50 for diff (with shims), and $40 for lock bar.
