Craig, installing rotors and pads are a peice of piss, if a first year mechanic can't do it I think he needs to re-evaluate his chosen profession cos he's obviously f**king useless...

^^^ Totally agree. Its a job a 1st year apprentice should be able to do. Sorry to hear a lacky f**ked ya car. I've had lackys f**k my bikes working on them before. :(

I should be doing my caliper conversion tomorrow. After spending some of today painting the Dolphin body kit ...

... speaking of which, its dark now, but I'll take pics tomorrow. The Dolphin kit now colour matches the Stag. Going out tonight to show her off :banana:

just a quick tip for all

DO NOT GET A 1ST YEAR APPRENTICE MECH TO ATTEMPT TO INSTALL YOUR NEW ROTORS AND PADS!

couldnt get the new pads over the new rotor, in attempting to open the calliper to fit over the rotor with new pads

he broke the fluid line.... :banana:

so i learnt my lesson, im just gonna pay a proffesional.

should have done that in the first place :(

he had every thing but a g clamp, to open the calliper.....

im just gonna send it to abs, let them deal with it.......

hopefully they can find another line for it......... :banana:

craig craig craig, i told you i'd help you do them. Ive done countless amounts of them.... oh well...live and learn.

    • Yes, I had ordered the spherical bushings at the same time as the rest. I have high hopes for the anti squat reduction kit. 
    • Make sure you use the spherical bushes** on the lower arms, ifyou do that. ** at least, if not the whole replacement lower arm.
    • The tap for coolant flow control will be stuck open. It's not just the air door motor that dies.
    • Not really, but the heater box is pretty simple mechanically....if the door is one way the air bypasses the heater core and if it is the other way it goes through it for warm air.  If you are sure the actuator you moved manually is for the heater mix (there would also be one for output air direction) then I'd take the heater box out and see what is happening (you'll have to regass and re-coolant the systems afterwards) BTW pp724 onwards from the GTR workshop manual cover the system in good detail, it is probably worth checking. I think the IAT sensor might be a problem electrically for getting cold (if you got 24 error code not -24 it thinks the incoming air is -50c) and it covers how to test the sensor (although most likely it is either not plugged in or a wire is damaged)
    • Use the GKTech subframe bush and bring your subframe 10mm closer to the chassis. You'll need to fix an exhaust hanger to suit. One of the best mods I've done.
