The studs should just be pressed in...I'd probably get a secondhand disc from a wrecker, that way you'll get studs, assuming it is a disc with the hub cast in. Just tap the studs out with a hammer. To put them in, tap them in, and pull them all the way in with the wheelnuts.

If you get a new disc, I would replace ALL the studs..whatever force broke one stud will for sure have damaged the others.

Regards, Andrew.

im going for option one seeing as its cheaper, and i have very limited cash..

but i only got the disc.. and well.. im getting the mechanic to put in the stud, seeing as i need the timing belt done, the car has done 127k kms

so yeah needs doing, and also.. the air con will be done, so it made sense to just get them to put it all back together...

thanx for your help tho :rolleyes:

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By suko · Posted

      I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅

      Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
