Good time Dale and great shot....

Is that a baby seat in the back???

Cheers Jase; pretty stoked to get the time too!

Why yes; yes it is, dad spec is the new sex spec. The after sex spec, if you will. ;)

And given half a chance; my young bloke would've been along for the ride...

Josh, the 18 x 9.5 +12 fit all good? any guard work needed?

I run 18x9.5 +12 on my s1, with 10mm slip ons on the front, ive rolled my guards all round, although have quite a lot of camber, if your're prepared to go quite low, they fit well.

  • 1 month later...

Took a photo up at Mum and Dads today inbetween working on the Xk120. This is pretty much my safest ride height and where it will stay. 335mm front eyelid, 330mm rear. It clears up over any driveways, gutters and gives good enough travel over the shitty roads (I do alot of onsite callout's Tweed/Goldcoast).

Even though my exhaust is tucked up pretty nicely, it's lowest point is 110mm off the deck.

Car drives so well still for what is now 335,000klms on stock turbo no rebuilds. Been running 12psi+ for the last 200,000 klms :D Roil Additive at the start and motul 8100 excess every 10k. Have to credit Nissan for building such an outstanding engine, driveline - everything.

Pennies are being saved now for a couple more suspension parts - front tension rods and swaybars. The clutch feels tired so probably needs doing soon and then I can get onto the better stuff in life - hypergear turbo, injectors, fuel pump, z32 afm, cams and nistune.

looking good Jez!

Makes me keen to get new wheels and coilovers for mine!

Also, blacked out grille and highbeams looks pretty good too

Because it makes it look less like a Series 2 and more like a series 1.... HA.

Car looks great SABBAi, how the hell did I not know about this charity cruise. I am such a dope some times.

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
