My crank angle sensor still have a sticker on 1 screw. Does it mean that my timing belt hasn't been changed??

Seller told me that timing belt was changed. By looking at the sticker here, it looks like the stock sticker.

Can someone confirm the sticker.

i have 100000km on my R32 gtst.

So i guess it is time to change.

If the timing belt has been changed or a 100,000km service has been done, there should be a sticker with the date it was changed and the kms when it was changed. This should be located at the top of the cam cover.

See here for more info: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...&hl=sticker

The sticker in this pic means that it is "recommended" that you change it at 100,000kms

i dont recall ever seeing that sticker on a CAS. it's most likey just there to stop people adjusting the timing once it was set. you could be right though. was there any receipts or service stickers to indicate that the timing belt HAD been changed?

No, i dont have any service record. Seller said it was changed but i dont believe that.

There is a sticker on the radiator, but i believe it is to show that the radiator liquid flush got change.

No sticker on the timing belt cover.

I do believe that the sticker on the screw of the CAS is stock.

I remember seeing a low km skyline and it got that sticker on the screw that looks fresh from the factory.

Is it easy to remove the timing belt cover? I would like to have a look at it, but im afraid to mess up with the timing from the CAS.

My CAS has the same sticker/tape. It had 68,000km on a wound back odo when I picked it up. I have no idea if my timing belt has been changed.

doodz not everyone has a 100,000km stamp. I'd be surprised if anyone other than Nissan stamped the head during that service.

the sticker is broken so the sensor has been moved or taken out

the sticker was broken on the side, probably due to its age.

if you look carefully in the picture, you can still see a part of the sticker covering the screw.

I doubt that someone will put back the sticker after opening the CAS.

yeah, no-one would use a screw driver to undo bolts. well no one smart anyway :teehee:

if it's broken on the side then it you be a safe bet to say it's been removed. all that means is that someone has removed or loosend the CAS. still doesn't tell you if the timing belt was changed or not.

you are right! :) No one will remove it with a screwdriver. :(

Now i still want to check if the timing belt was change.

Can someone tell me if it is easy to remove the CAS?

Just unbolt and mark down where the bolt sit, and remove?

Then put back at the same position??

Yes but you will have to check timming with a light to make sure its 15 degrees .

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
