god im funneh at 3:30am!!! :P shane

anyone got a big f**k off breaker bar i can borrow on sunday/today harmonic is supposed to be a karnt to get off...

i have one as long as ur forearm and it gets my harmonic balancers off. use ur legs and ur muscles..

bahahahahaha i was gonna tell u that the other day but i assumed u already knew :(

P.S only way to get it tightened back up is to use a rattle gun

or use ur muscles.

To start with - you won't get a rattle gun in there without removing the A/C. Unless you got some super dooper short arse rattle gun that I've never seen before?

Secondly - You can use the breaker bar under the chassis rail and flick the starter to crack the balancer bolt but then you'll have the issue of doing it up again.

Thirdly - Don't do what Mark is about to suggest as I have seen mechanics pop gearboxes a few times trying to crack them with the car in gear and brakes on etc.

I have a tool which you may borrow but it must be returned. Makes everything easy and you don't have to worry about busting shit.

I assume you also have a balancer puller to get the balancer off once you have undone the bolt?

DO i wait till early december for the better deal on my car or do i take the slightly less good deal tomorrow *strokes beard*

You take the less good deal tomorra, as Dec could still fall over.

You rego the R33 so you an anna have transport.

You sell the R33 while your driving it.

When its sold; you either have your new car here or you buy/drive a beater until you get the new car.

Easy.

Dont take the Dec risk,

lol at pics.

hey dan. i havent heard of anyone breaking a box doing it my way. infact i dnt think u could with the amount of torque u have with a small breaker bar..

i normally penetrene the night before :D life is easier that way.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
