new r33 - flare still in car- took it out, original manual in globebox, car was really clean when i got it inside, they must have checked before selling it, also later on found extra tein C spanner for the coilovers under the spacesaver in the boot, also a piece of my rear guard sitting under the tyre which is chipped off.

thats about it ;)

b005t,

what you describe above is spookily IDENTICAL to what came in my car.... was your Jap dealer Nissan Prince in ***uoka ??? Shame 'bout the Puretron not working 'coz i'ts very practical rice (which I wasn't expecting by the look of it).

I found a Endless break pads box with the old set rusted pads down the side of the boot...near the tool kit....and also a fuel receipt underneath the leather gear leaver cover.

...OH AND A FLARE :D...haha to everyone without flares

My Flare was located underneath the carpet on the drivers side...it also had some weird alcohol can in the console...

....I wish i found a japanese playing card...:D

Mine came with a Castrol service sticker with (the writing had been rubbed out but left an imprint on it that was visible) .... it said next service due in Aug 02 or at 104,000Km ........ hmmm funny that as the odo only read 75,000kms as of Aug 02 :P

Also have some labelling tape on the doorwell with some jap writing on it ..... no idea what it says.

But other than that - its been fairly boring ..... no playing cards, no dockets ..... nothing

isn't it like RWC mandatory?  coz i dont got one...

oh i got one of those :P

my oil filter had a penis drawn onto it...

oh wait a minute, i drew that...

but my car came with some pretty new looking sparkies that were PFR5A's... and when i read listings about sparkies i couldn't find that number so i chucked em out and replaced them with NGK coppers that were listed for the skyline... only to later on realise that they were new NGK platinums... :'(

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
