  1. At the time, the most help I received was actually from Infiniti Melbourne. They sourced the update and provided it to nissan, and then Nissans Techline applied it remotely. Andrew Taylor from Infiniti was the legend behind it all, along with Clint Robertson. This was a long time ago now, you could try is email [email protected] and ask him about the 2008 ECU update he helped facilitate in 2014. If you do speak with him, let him know Im still incredibly grateful for his help.
  2. Was sitting idle the other day and heard a pop, then saw a heap of white smoke. Turns out the plastic coolant bleeder valve gave way. I've already bought an aluminium valve and OEM coolant. The hoses though aren't in great shape, and they're starting to crack as Im messing with them to get all the plastic pieces out. Can anyone recommend/link somewhere in Aus I can get a pair of new hoses for 08 pv36 vq35hr. Silicon or OEM, not fussed.
  3. I saw a video of someone replacing the Y pipe with a custom fab X pipe to solve it. Do you think that might be a better option to a pair of resonators? Or maybe even both?
  4. Just an update. Got that part in, plastic was brittle and one of the clips broke pretty easily. Still went together fine, and my fans are running as they should now
  5. So I went with Invidia catted pipes. The Rasp is awful. The whole car sounds like shit now lol. Im told it'll settle a bit over time, but not much 😬 Maybe something like this resonator will help. https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B000E3VHVO/?coliid=I3OCVZOG64PLDG&colid=1EO7L0YGVUEV2&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl_gv_ov_lig_pi_dp At least it doesn't sound like broken honeycomb anymore I guess.
  6. Thanks a lot for that info, I had no idea. Did a quick search and WD40 do a ptfe. Would this be suitable? https://www.bunnings.com.au/wd-40-150g-specialist-anti-friction-dry-ptfe-lubricant_p6100410
  7. Are they suitable for Sedan? Found a decent price on a pair
  8. Following this as Im having the same issue at the moment. I didn't realise they were on for so long, now one of the motors squeaks as it winds down when turning the car off. I was looking at one from a 2011 wreck, but the yard is taking forever to give me a price lol.
  9. Cheers for that, Can you recommend a store/seller?
  10. Can anyone recommend a pair of hfc's for the sedan? 2008. Bonus points if they're an Aussie store. Is there anything I need to look out for after they're installed? Do they create any errors or CEL? Cheers
  11. A guy commenting on this video seems overly confident adding slightly more 5/30 oil with LSPI solves it. Pinging sound at 24sec
  12. No it didn't work at all. The next day it started again. The filters were blown with air after a service about a month ago. Pulled them out the other day, didn't notice any over the top oil. My pinging has been happening for a couple of years. But this year its quite bad. Only ever used 98 since purchasing about 10 years ago.
