Can anyone confirm the correct grease to use on the whiteline bush kits from Sydneykids group buy?

The little satchels of grease supplied should be enough for installing but as the front camber kits have grease nipples

I would like to make sure I use the right grease there.

Sure I read on here somewhere castrol LM just wanted to confirm it

cheers

You can use almost any grease, it's not so critical. But generaly the better grease to use is that used in boat trailer wheel bearings. This application will be listed on the container, and its good stuff as its water proof.

Thanks for that SK kit looks good and I am looking forward to getting back on the track and improving the lap times

though the rear HICAS tierod looks a bit dodgy so might have to try an change that out to

Was curious a to whether i can just unbolt the driveshaft and arms etc an remove the hub to press it out or will I have to replace seals in the cv joint or balljoints

as well if I can split the lower ball joint and hub without damaging the boot etc I think its doable

will be giving it a go thursday any advice much appreciated at this point

I am not sure that I understand the question, so I appologise in advance if the following doesn't answer it.

It is not necessary to remove the upright/hub from the car to replace a rear steering arm ball joint. Simply undo the locking nut on the inner joint of the rear steering arm. Then use a ball joint splitter to separate the rear steering tie rod from the upright/hub. Simply unscrew the ball joint fro mthe steering arm. Reverse process with replacement ball joint.

Cheers mate thinking you are referring to the ball joint at the inner, where it attach's to the HICAS lock bar yeah?

My problem is the one that Is pressed (?)into the hub itself, there is movement there

the inner (the part that screws into the lock bar) seems nice an tight.

I will have a chance to check it out better this arvo

unfortunately need the car drivable next week for dynoing, so final alignment issue's may have to be dealt with after that

was just keen to get a workable alignment so wasnt to much of a handful when on the dyno

cheers anyway

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
