Did anyone else on the waiting list get an email from JPNZ about the workshop manual?

They're about to start work, want a $50 deposit, manual will cost $150NZ and will take 2 months.

Anyone keen?

i got an email, again im not puting a deposit becouse from all their other work im unsure what exactly will be translated, and what is including, and the quality of the job, if its done well, im willing to pay 150 but not going to pay 50 sight unseen for somthing that may be worthless

Yeah, agreed.

I think it's taking the piss a bit to wait this long with nothing, then expect 33% upfront with no guarantee of the content, or quality.

Their previous reputation certainly doesn't reassure me.

Hey Josh,

I have little luck with search also - it appears I suck at the internet, lol.

Do you have an oil leak from the drivers' side? So far I've not heard of anyone with that issue. I'm about to pull the plenum & passenger side valve cover off mine to 'fix' the leak for the third time.

13270AL612 – Passenger side valve cover gasket

13270AQ800 – Driver side valve cover gasket

Edit: Too slow (got distracted) - now there is more results for the search function :)

Well I hope you don't have the same problem as me then. My plastic cover is flexing slightly as it's tensioned down, so that the gasket isn't compressed enough in the middle (between two bolts positions) to stop oil leaking out. I'm going to have to take more drastic measures to fix it.

I guess what I'm saying is 'if it aint leaking, don't fix it", lol.

Ok guys I have a bit of an 4WD problem with my M35. Last week I had the tyres flipped on the rims and while doing it the tyre centre split the side wall of one tyre (their fault and trying to get them to replace it at their cost) Now they fitted a temporary s/hand tyre in the same 245/45-18 size but its a Bridgestone instead of the Kumho ku31 it had.

The Bridgestone has 2mm less tread depth than the KU31. Its only been on for a couple days and now the car has started randomly throwing up the 4WD warning light.

Could the attesa system be that picky that the s/hand bridgestone is causing the problem? I checked the fluid level and its fine, car drives as normal but when the lights on if I select syncro mode it won't drive the front wheels at all. If I turn the car off and restart it sometimes the light will not appear and then if I select syncro mode it works as normal.

Any help is appreciated as Im worried now that if they replace that 1 tyre with a new KU31, that tyre will be 2mm more tread depth than they other 3 and still cause this problem, so I may need to try and get another tyre replace so both tyres on the same axel are the same rolling diameter.

So does anyone know exactly what veriance Nissan have given the attesa system for rolling diameter?

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
