genuine nissan top rad hose was $25

Shiet... I recently replaced my top/bottom hoses that had done close to 140,000km's I replaced them with Gates hoses shortly after I bought the car.

Considering they were aftermarket they have done well. Still felt quite good but worth while replacing while it was apart.

Gates top and bottom rad hoses cost me ~$20 each. Price isn't far off genuine. What was the lower from Nissan worth?

I also refilled with Nulon Green. Top stuff. 90,000kms since I had the stuff in it last. The head hoses etc were perfectly clean.

depends whats cheaper, genuine nissan or aftermarket.

dont wanna be wasting any money of my gay engine.

Ministry of bass has the 2 piece silicon hoses for around the $80 mark iirc.. dunno how much stockies are

-D

Heyyy computer smart people, im pretty clueless when it comes to this, but I bought a new computer just now, and i want to transfer all the stuff i have on the old one over to the new one. Now i know i can do wireless networking, which ive got setup now, but i cant transfer programs can i?

The main one i need is my photoshop program - does anyone have a copy i can possibly borrow otherwise?

you need to re-install all your programs flick =(

you can copy files, but not the programs... despite what ted says

yeh, sucks i have so many programs on this computer, dont think i have the disk for them all anymore tho. Oh well, good way for me to kill the next few hours transferring everything over. New laptop is pretty cool tho, has bluray and all sorts!

hey fish,

If u want i went and saw my mate today at Edwardstown custom body repairs, said u might come in and get a quote.

Speak to Mel (bold head guy) tell him Luke sent u there. Should give u a better price.

Was also saying if the paint isnt chipped on the quarter panel it shouldnt be that bad.

Look for the black Ferrari out the front.

Its on Bennet ave at an intersection.

<---------- nismo gearknob ftw :O

i got a new one of them sittin still in its package in the shed, catn decide wether to put it on or keep the Greddy silver one :s

might wait till i get new black leathers later this week and chuck it on

DESTROY.

When I dropped the rb30det in I also replaced all hoses. From memory total set me back around 400-500. Well worth it though for piece of mind.

--------

I went with the Nismo leather knob. Slightly shortens the shifter just right and is comfortable. The 25t box has a longer throw so the Nismo shifter helps it feel a little more like the shorter throw rb20t box.

cubes it's DSTROY lol

Luke fishpaste is coming to nene & bens on sat with me to pull the Bar off and have a look whats under there damage wise

Ben your always happy to lend a hand well done xx

    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
    • Well, yeah. But I just expect everything other than my car to feel like a bucket of shit anyway. I still miss my Alfa 116 so much though. You could run over a 20c piece and tell whether it was heads or tails.
