oi ladies

would it be easier/better to paint an interior before or after a weld in cage goes in?

joshwa, has ur brother sprayed interiors yet? nudge nudge :domokun:

No. he wouldnt do my skyline coz I chipped too much paint off of the shell when i took the deadening out, and he was having a cry about how much work there was now.

If you remove the crap with more care then I, EG: all it needs is small amount of primer filler, primer and paint I can't see a problem.

We have moving house on the 28th of this month, so I duno when he can do anything aye.

IF i had it ready to roll in 2 weeks u reckon he'd be able to do it?

If it was me I would remove the interior, sound deadening etc first, then paint, then weld the cage in.
I would do what Keeg's said and then re-paint over the welds....well that what i will be doing...but some of the proofing will be going back in

Yeah i sorta thought that too, just wasnt too sure

cheers lads :domokun:

If you were doing it, i would do it like i did it in the race car...strip it all out, sound deadening and all, sand it back where its getting welded in like you normally do. Once the cage is all welded in and finished then go ahead and paint the whole interior. Believe me, its a pain in the arse painting everything and then having to sand it back where your welding and then touching it up. If its getting welded by mig, your going to get sparks everywhere and its going to ruin the paintjob just about everywhere inside. If its getting tig welded in then it should be ok, then its just the radiating heat from the weld area that will cook and bubble the paint outside of the sanded area as it travels through the parent metal.

But each to their own!

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
