Here's a video DIY for brake fluid change that my boo and I did on my R33. Just click the link, download, and enjoy!

If no one downloads it for 30 days the file will be removed from the servers (it's on a free webhosting server), so keep my baby alive. If it does get wiped then let me know and I'll re-upload it!

Now, go change your brake fluid!

Negative terminal came off because the service manual said so. I think it was to disable the ABS unit as the other option is to pull out the fuse for the ABS unit instead of removing negative terminal. I just assumed my car has ABS. If yours doesn't then no need to remove any electrical thing.

Would you believe me if I said vid was taken with camera phone?

Didn't think so! My boo has a Panasonic NV-GS200. Nice little camera, 3-CCD as well, but these days you can get the NV-GS400 for about $1500 (and that's paying retail) which has 12x optical zoom and optical image stabilizer. Just as an aside, my boo recently had to get the prism in the camera replaced as there was a known fault. It was covered under warranty even though the camera is about 3 years old and the problem only recently occurred.

Vid editting was done using Sony Vegas Movie Studio and Sound Forge Audio Studio.

good work :)

and offtopic - i have the GS400 :laugh:

That's right, ferni. It's encoded with xvid codec and lamemp3 for audio. I use K-Lite Codec Pack which installs pretty much all the necessary codecs to play just about every sort of format you'll come across on the net. Just do a google search for "k-lite codec".

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
