Hey sorry to confuse you someone told me a strawberry conversion was any sort of front end being put on a diff chassis, turns out they were wrong haha :laugh: What i meant was an R34 front on the r33 chassis, A website called motorkitz sells the full kit i need for $3500, includes lights, fenders, bonnet, front bar and grill, side and rear bodykit. It looks hot :w00t:

Thanks for the link, I dont think ill be able to make it (you know, not being able to drive by myself and everything) haha learners FTL. Hopefully ill be able to make it to some future events though would be good to meet some QLD members :)

Ahhhhh I thought that's what you meant, no worries :thumbsup:

Shame about dyno day, but you know, we have our weekly dinners, and there's plenty of other impromptu events you can attend, like movie nights, trips to sexpo :blink::laugh:

Bahahha trips to sexpo!

You know what i think is ridiculous? The legal age is 16 yet you need to be 18 to get in, 18 to watch other people, yet 16 to do it yourself, Where is the sense in that :laugh:

Although i must admit if they lowered the age to 16 to get into sexpo you would have a mad rush of nerdy pimple faced horny teenagers oogling at the pornstars and buying packets of condoms for use on themselves, that amongst the deros, perverts, homosexuals and cheesy old men!

hahaha sounds like a fun day out :laugh:

you and me drag day :w00t:

What do you drive?

Nah.. "Silberry" or strawberry is because the japanese word sounds like berry.. hence the name in english

ie Sil80 (sileighty) is the 180 front..

Nice work on a 2.5l 6 cyl as your first car.. i think my first car was a 4cyl.. and something not as costly.. so that if i did crash it.. i didnt care ( hynudai excell ftw).

Good luck dude.. with the new laws comming in it may make your life a little hard.

But if you play nice on the road you should be fine.

I hear all these horror stories of ppl getting pulled over and defected and im glad i havent had that happen to me.

Just play safe..dont be stupid.. and they wont have a reason to pull you over.

Hey dude. welcome to sau. I think i know the general area your live in if its in algester. im in algester too, wave if you see me.

you should be right with the pow-lice, as long as your dont look like a typical boy racer, ie, wearing a hat backwards at night; your chair reclined to the floor; egging others on at the lights, you have nothing to worry about.

good luck dude, hope to see you around.

    • 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
    • To drain the Intake Heat Exchanger, there is a crappy drain plug in front of the driver's side front tyre: You should use the largest headed phillips screwdriver you had, and in my case I needed vice grips on the hose above as the plug was tight (tighter than it needed to be, since it has an o-ring seal).  After you have a tray down and open the drain, open the intake heat exchanger reservoir cap (drivers side one) and you should get a couple of litres of coolant To get to the radiator, you need to remove the plastic engine undertray. It is held on with a series of 10mm headed bolts and some clips. For the radiator, there is another type of crappy drain (kind of like a plastic banjo bolt) and you should attach a length of hose to direct the stream of coolant per this pic (otherwise the coolant hits the rad support and goes everywhere). The drain is on the rear of the radiator on the driver's side and a bit hard to find. Put a big tray or bucket down (5l won't be enough) and slowly unscrew the fitting by hand. You only want to remove it far enough for coolant to flow, it you unscrew it right out the whole fitting and direction pipe will come off and you will get a coolant bath (yum!). Undo the radiator reservoir cap and it should empty about 8l
    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You also need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator so you will need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. 2 other tools that really help dealing with coolant lines and spring clamps are Bent Needle Nose pliers Hose pliers Between them they will reduce the frustration (and injury) potential by about 1000% Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
