Oh yea Dave, when are you finishing up your apprenticeship?

http://www.sedgman.com.au/careers/current_vacancies.php

I think theres a few electrician vacancies come up if they can get internal people. I suspect minimum pay for these role to be above 120k pa but of course its site based.

f**k that, im going to be a contractor.

Oh and Gtr Injectors can make 300awkw.....I reckon if Brandon could get somthing to hold boost his current set up would go awfully close to 300awkw, i would be nervous about injectors running in the high 90s but ive done it before! lol

Agreed.... In saying that though I'm not a tuner, be interesting to see what efi performance or another tuner has to say regarding the matter. 1000cc's? LOL! Choose the right injector size for the job...

Its on topic, so I guess I'd better :D

...I need to get into shares

There's a shitload of books to get you started and to save you money from going to a financial advisor. Charting secrets by louise bedfords a good start.

Ok. John's isnt stock after all... hahaha.

Lol, define stock? I have a front mount, a pod filter and some exhaust system that came with the car, other than that the car's stock. And yeh did a 14.37 on crappy chinese tyres and a 30+degree day. Can't complain I spose.

my annual mothersite whoretown post and im using it to pimp my wares.

buy my turbo -> http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ga...rt-t300962.html

Woah...what turbo are you changing to? I remember mr fineline saying he wanted to strap a t04z onto his patrol :P

defining stock is easy.....it doesnt have things that it didnt come with from the factory

Which probably no one here is. And even if there's 1, they're gay.

John: Thats why I said how fast the boat sail depends on the captain as well. I'm sure if you're driving my car you'll get into the 12s. Hope you're doing well. Harrys gonna be big this Thursday if anyone is keen. I'll say it again, the chicken parm is a must try. JustDave and Mitch will be there too.

LOL @ the gay remark. Dunno if I'd drive your car any good. I prefer to know the car, take it out for dinner and a walk along the beach and get to know it before I get into it... Hopefully I'll be over this aids virus I have atm and be able to move around. So I'll probably be in for Harry's. My man Shiz will probably be keen too. Maybe us south siders can drive up together or something?

Tristan: f**k the exam. Summer's easy! Ask John

hahaha - wait i just realised you are talking about thursday not wednesday - in that case im going to be down the coast.. naked.. with beer..

    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
    • OK, now we are ready to get started. You need to remove the air boxes on each side for clearance. The cover is straightforward, undo the clips on the top and lift the front cover out of the rest of the housing. If it is tight you can remove the air filters first. The rear section of the airbox is trickier. On each side you need to remove the Air flow meter wiring which is held to the airbox with a clip; you need to get behind the clip on 2 sides if you want to remove it without breaking it - unclip the harder side and pull on the clip with medium force, then unclip the easier side and it should pop out The airbox is held onto the intake hose with a spring clamp; you need to get a flat bladed screwdriver behind the spring on both sides and pop them outwards. When you have got them in the right unclipped place they will stay there and the airbox slips out pretty freely. Put a rag in the intake to prevent anything getting dropped in there, and also to prevent you seeing that the turbo seal is leaking oil (as they do). Then. The top of the radiator is held by a steel plate, it is secured by 2x10mm and 2x12mm headed bolts . Remove them and remove the plate Also grab the bushings that hold the radiator to the plate on each side so they are not lost!
    • Next, remove the upper and lower radiator hoses, both are held with a spring clamp. While you are under there, tackle the Auto Trans cooler lines.  Again both are held on with spring clamps, and as mentioned above you should cap them on the radiator side with an 8mm cap, and on the car side loop them with a length of 8mm pipe - this will stop you losing a dangerous amount of AT fluid during the rest of the job If you've been meaning to add a sender for AT trans temp, this is a great time to do it; put a sender fitting into the passenger side line as that is the inlet to the cooler/radiator.
    • Next you need to remove the intake duct (as with pretty much every job on these cars), it is a series of clips you gently remove with a flat bladed screwdriver. They do get brittle with time and can break, and I have not found a decent quality aftermarket one that fits (they are all too soft or flimsy and don't last either) but the nissan ones are a couple of bucks each (ouch).  Once the clips are off (either 8 or 10, I didn't check) you lift the intake duct out and will see the reservoirs Undo the line into the radiator side cap (some bent needle nosed piers are awesome for spring clamps) and then remove the 4x 10m nuts that hold both in place.  I didn't get these pics, but remove the line under the radiator reservoir (spring clamp again) then remove that reservoir. Then you can get at the intake reservoir, same thing, spring clamp underneath then remove it. BTW This is a great time to put in a larger (+70%) combined reservoir that AMS makes..... https://www.amsperformance.com/product/q50-q60-red-alpha-coolant-expansion-tank/ They also make an Infiniti branded and part# version if that is your thing
