There are no grooves, they just push back in. Make sure you keep an eye on the fluid reservoir as Alex said.

Thanks peeps, will get on to this on the weekend.

Once I take the fluid out do I leave the resivour cap off until I have pushed the piston back in or just take out what I need to, replace the cap, then go work on the calipers, push them in, start the car and then refil if required? Or am I missing a few steps? Is it ok to give one of you guys a call RE this just to run through it?

always replace cap whenever your not filling or taking out- prevents debris and brake fluid is hydroscopic, meaning it attracts water.

may have just made that word up. :P

Don't take all of it out (then you'll have to bleed them all), just a little bit,like inbetween the max and min, and then push the piston back a bit and check it again- you'll get the idea.

Ooooh; sooo close!

Hygroscopic; Readily absorbing moisture, as from atmosphere.

The rest is fine. Don't forget to work from the furthest point to the closest point; think rear left corner to front right corner.

Now; back to your normal programming. Grammar Nazi out.

Lol, had heard it said, but not written before. Thank you. :3some:

WHEY! +1 Another M35 owner to the list here as of today.

4th consecutive Nissan owned. Such a nice car, absolutely love it. Smooth, comfort, with a big slap of boost on tap.

Must admit, she's thirsty though!

Like all 1.7tonne turbo v6's

Mine's ~1.8t plus whoever & whatever I have inside. I could get into the 9's (just) on a trip, otherwise 10.5 - 11.0L/100km on stock turbo. Don't know current consumption since changing turbo, but probably a bit worse.

Hey GUYS, I'm interested in the M35, they're all auto !! i would like to convert one to manual !

For example: a 2002 model Nissan Stagea (NM35) 250 GT RS 4 V, has a VQ25DET engine, however, the 2002-05' Nissan Skyline (V35) comes in a VQ35DE but in a manual.

Is it possible to connect V35 3.5litre gearbox to the M35's engine ?

Seb

(ps- sorry if this has been said somewhere else as I haven't seen it yet)

Hey guys, I got an airbag light flashing on the dash - no idea how or what has triggered it. Just keeps flashing continuously. Anyone had this before?

Yeah, so many people it's not funny.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
