haha , couldnt disagree more Big nuts

This is going to be a Slaughter and Vic’s need to be prepared to lose in such a way as we might as well sell our cars at the end of the event as to not shame the Skyline and SAU name.

Mexicans are wrong to think that we can beat any other state let alone pretend that we can actually drive. It will be miracles if any Vic’s even make the journey to Shepparton for the event without getting lost.

I and the rest of VIC SAU would like to say we are sorry for trying to prove to all NSW members that we are better as this is just a lie and to prove this at DECA and if I can find my way there, is to by all NSW people a round of drinks, And if any NSW people try to return the favour I will throw the biggest tanty and be very upset.

I hope you can forgive me and the rest of VIC SAU and what ever you say to us about our driving ability we will greatly appreciate all NSW wise words.

See they do think we are better.

What is a Cifero anyway -is that like a Pulsar?

No its what others refer to as a 4 door taxi har har :).... sheesh :D

Similar from the old nissan books i just saw... although I think slower than a pulsar ;)

*runs*

*catchs Anna :P * :laughing-smiley-014:

Hey TJ i want to see smoky from your tyres at Deca this time AWD drift action I think !

A shame Ando can do that so well though .......I might even find it hard to even get a cherp from my tyres lol

EDITTED CORRECTLY

ps... har har too homo!! :)

Oh and great news!!!

I just figured out if you spell out Cefiro backwards and add a H you get = Horifec sounds like horrific..... ahahaha :);)

Ando.... how did you catch me? You must of been in Liz's 180 ... yeah thats it ..! :D

*runs a sh!t load faster*

Cause you drive a whale....... :sorcerer:

*points and laughs like Nelson from Simpsons... HAR HAR*

Dont pick on her just because she has a better car then you sounds like you want a R33 I guess one day you might be able to handle the power

Hey Ando seriously who are you thinking of taking as your navagator it realy helps on the day

what i think we need todo is see who is going down to watch and see if we can borrow them to go around the tracks?

or are using Jason ?

Don't know about the smoke but I would hope I'll do much better than last time. Key will be keeping the clutch intact with lower RPM launches. Thanks to Duncan's secret tech I suspect the GTR will prove itself on the slippery skidpan.

On a serious note, Anyone know a cheap and easy way to make sure your H-brake stays button in? Had it lock on one run last year which was not a good thing. Duct Tape?

1. Used to own a R33 buddy boy..... but saw the light.... :D

2. Navigator? I thought you were only allowed passangers on the skid pan section... or are you talking about the drive down to VIC? If so Jason is coming with me...

Cause you drive a whale....... :sorcerer:

*points and laughs like Nelson from Simpsons... HAR HAR*

Not atm I don't *cries*

Stoopid ass wrx .... need to get the datto registered I thinks!

You can have passenger on both sectons but the passenger and driver need a helmet on the wangs.

1. Used to own a R33 buddy boy..... but realised that I just couldn't handle the R33. Downgraded to Grandma spec and now I couldn't be more happier at the leisurely pace.... :)

:D

    • 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.
