When replacing the manifold/turbo gaskets, replace all the studs aswell.

Your mad not too, and your likely to break 3-4 when removing the manifold anyhow.

So replace them all now and be done with it

when my turbo went, it sounded like a supercharger, annoying wine sound drove me crazy, then i just boosted it real hard and back off soon as i backed off it went to the point of sound like metal was scrapping on metal not a good sound, i still had boost pressure though, if you think its going take off you intake pipe to turbo and feel the shaft and spin it and see if it makes noise then if not then its normally fine, but in your case, defently gasket,

      They are in fact just nozzles. They are there only to produce a spray pattern and limit flow. The injector itself is what I use to control flow to the 7x nozzles. My old system had no injector and only PWM the pump. This lead to a lot of inconsistencies, and poor atomization at low pressure when the pump was ramping up.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      With the system, once you drive it for a bit, and before you turn the car off, does the car fix its date and time? When you say the date is wrong, what date does the vehicle think it is, and does it always show the same date? My thoughts from a process driven view is; The system may be defaulting to a standard start date/time. The main reason you'd typically see this occuring, is the system is losing its constant/backup power supply.   If its always defaulting to the same date/time at start up, and especially if it fixes itself while driving, I'd say either the non volatile memory has an issue, or the power supply to the volatile memory that stores this information.   The other thing I'd check is if there is anywhere in the system you can adjust the date and time from. If the date/time is still moving forward since it wished you happy new year, then it is 100% possible the system has just had a bit of data corruption occur, and you likely need to find a way to reset the date/time in the vehicle.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      Scissor Jacks are an accident waiting to happen, the only time they should be used are in an roadside flat, even then a tyre and rim should be placed underneath

      You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
