  2. I know that I can buy the adaptor for using r33 brakes but I want 5 stud as well as I want to use my old wheels (Volk TE-37 off my R33), I'd fallen in love with those wheels.

    However I am not sure if the skyline hub will fit to the cefiro stub axle, so I need the information from you guys about this. If they fit it would be sweet.

    I don't want to use the stud adaptor considering the safety.

  3. G'day guys

    I am planning to buy cefiro in the future, but there are something bothering me.

    I want to have better brakes and better grip.

    At the moment I have aftermarket wheels off skyline with 5 stud. I really love the wheels and I would like to use them on my future cefiro.

    Will the hub from s14 200 sx fit cefiro? or as s14 have 4 pot brake will the whole stub axle and hub unit of s14 200sx fit to cefiro strut and control arm?

    Thanks guys

  4. Thanks for your comment guys

    I had a talk with my boss at work, and we discuss about "standard or registration" which is bassically ADR and Roadworthy of vehicle

    After we read the latest release of roadworthy regulation book, which is 300 pages,

    I found about the rims that it is allowed to change rims 1 inch bigger than what the maximum standard rims that offered by manufacturer for the same make and model of vehicle. So in this case my car is Nissan Skyline, Model: R33, std rims: 16x6.5 , but Nissan offered 17x9 rims for Nissan Skyline GTR R33. My boss think I am Ok with 18 inch rim because the make is same and the model is same. It is like Holden Commodore VT Executive and Holden Commodore VT SS they are the same make(Holden) and model (Commodore VT) but they got 15 inch in exec and 17 inch in SS.

    The same regulation apply to the rim width.

    I will definetely fight for this as you guys can see I have a valid point (I think) and I it very obvious that the cops that pulled over just want to fish me as they didnt put canary or asked me for RWC or EPA, just asked me to pay the FINE

    BTW I am mature age Asian. How do you guys know that I am Asian

    From what you guys said that Asian get puuled over more by cops yeah?

    However this is the fist time I got booked since I bought skyline (I bought it in mid year 2000)

  5. This morning when I went to work I was pulled over by cops. I asked the reason why they pull me off, they just said that they want to check my licence.

    Short story after checking my licence the other cop (there were 2 cops) asked me to pop the bonnet and the other start to checking around the car my car. They started to questioned me and start to hassle me.

    They looked at the standard intercooler piping (I paint the piping silver) and start saying that it is illegal to change the factory piping ( what the..!!) I convince them that it is factory piping but they didnt believe me.

    Then they pointed the intercooler saying it its illegal if not come from factory (mine is factory GTR intercooler with sticker that got Nissan Calsonic writting on it) I pointed to the sticker said that the intercooler is std nissan item and they believe me ;)

    They asked about the BOV and ask me to rev the car ( my BOV is quite on low rev because I wind it down so it just sounds loud on full boost), they heard nothing and asked me to rev harder to about 7k RPM while it was start make hissing noise and they said it is noisy, OK I accept that but where in the world one driving daily driven in 7000 rpm all the time but anyway

    For short story after they checking everything in the engine bay, interior ( glove box, under the seat, and they lift the mats because they were confident that I have piggy bag comp. but I don't), exhaust, height clearance, etc and they looked at the wheels and start make decision that 18" wheel is illegal for skyline.

    I start to argue because I am a motor mechanic, I am doing RWC every day and I am 100 % that the diameter of the rim should not exceed 50mm or 2 inch and the width is no more that 2 inch wider either.

    I know I am right so I keep argue with them. They said that they will double check for that and took about 20 mins for them to double check and come up with :" No mate, I think you confuse with insurance rule" ( WHAT THE?)

    I had enough argue and i was just shut up because I am pissed off.

    I got fined for $169 and I expect they write my ofence specifically but in the infrigement written that my ofence is:

    " Use, cause, or permit a vehicle to be used that does not comply with a standard for registration"

    Anyone here please explain to me what the meaning of my offence

    I guess the answer is my car is not road worthy

    However, they did not tell me to supply new RWC, they did not write the specific reason of why my car is not comply with std registration, and they did not give me canary, they just fined me

    If the BOV is problem it is not RWC item instead it is EPA matter

    If the exhaust is problem, I showed them the EPA test paper

    If the intercooler is problem, all std turbo skyline has intercooler and why bigger intercooler is not allowed

    If the rims too big, they are just 2 inch bigger

    What do you guys think? Pay them or appeal the case

    Any comment is appreciated

    Sorry for the long post, but this post make me feel lighter

  6. the leak from the front end could be cam seal , try to open the cambelt cover and see if there is leak behind the cam gear. if there is oil behind the cam gear definetely cam seal has **cked

    As from the side looks like the oil came from steering rack, squeeze the steering boot and if oil pissing out from there it must be steering rack seal need to be replaced
