sorry to hear Min

Amanda has he taken the top off the brake fluid reservoir that will help release pressure

i'm not sure, i'll have to ask him when he wakes up

You have to squeeze the caliper pistons back into the caliper either using a proper tool, a G clamp or two screw drivers....

MIN, a baffle plate between the cat flanges will do the trick.

he tried the G clamp, it ended up getting bent (was pretty old though) so i had to buy him a new 1

but yeah my brother is gonna help him 2moro morning so hopefully they get it

On a sad note, i wont be attending Kellie's cruise :D Dont really feel like driving the car with a defect sticker on it.... i might tag along in someones car

:)

Dont be soft, if your allowed to drive it, drive it

true how long did they give your 24hrs or 48 hrs

Mark are you blowing off the cruise for that gig or you were only kidding

Dont be soft, if your allowed to drive it, drive it

EDIT

that was quick craig did you find anything out about that clutch you were telling me about

^ yeah, extreme heavy duty 5 puck cushion ceramic $320....

im going to hold off on it though, it seems to be going ok (as long as i dont drop it)

i need to focus on window tint/lowering/polish first for A.S.

Rim Question - if you had the choice between 18x8" +38 Model 5 copies, 18x8" +36 5 Spoke Rims, or 17x8" +42 buddy Club P1's in titanium silver - what would you choose? Each are within reach of my price range so really not sure...... I'd like 18's but the P1s are just so appealing...

What I think the P1s would look like:

What the 18" 5 spokes look like

Or AVS Model 5 copies (these are 17's, I would be looking at 18's)

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
