Haha yeah daz moved about 5 weeks ago, just generaly over the coast, same old shit and same old people.. ya know how it is, so i decided to move up here as my family lives here and there's some good paying work up here. I'm working for a transport company at the moment driving trucks.. so no more cooking for me! I'll be heading into the mines in a few months once i'm a bit more settled in and have my MC truck licence. I'll be back on the coast from time to time, though i'll have a new toy by the time i'm down that way again :laugh:

Hey mate, nice to know there's another gt-r in town! I live in glenmore and see the lappers (50% bogans/30% ricers/10% cops/10% ok cars) out on thursday nights all the time, i'm not much into lapping, its asking for trouble. By the way was it you that had a carbon bonnet for sale some times ago, still got it ?

This is what my car looks like

It has a few mods, coilovers, bigger brakes, induction/exhaust, bride seat, work rims yada yada..

I'll be sure to keep an eye out for ya and give you a toot!

oh.. yeah i had the bonnet for sale. not for sale anymore though since i got no licence til start of may, then ill have my opens so 1 point defects wont worry me too much.

Yeah thursday night laps are asking for trouble sometimes. Sometimes they're good though.

GTR looks fat. Love your rims.

I'll keep an eye out.

Thanks mate, it'll work out, to many people in this world aren't determind enough to make shit happen.. not i. Apart from being a shit hole its an ' ok ' place (at best).. oh well, if you want houses and toys and oversea's holidays you have to work for it!

Welcome to rocky.. I've been here for 363 days (and have TWO working days left in this s*it hole! before i move back to brisvagas :P

Think i've seen your GTR out aswell.

Must say the cops here are pretty cool compared to the brisbane defect whores, i've only been pulled over once for a RBT.

Been out on a thursday night? Cops here are worse than Brisbane, they're just alot dumber. Thursday night here turns into f**kin bwcp sometimes. Rocky cops are assholes. You must have been pretty lucky.

Isaac :action-smiley-069:

You coming home mate...?

ha ha i knew u would move back, i rememeber when u were going up there, tossing up between sunny coast fo rocky, i bet u wish u took sc now aye. but anyway rocky cant be too bad a place, good for a change form the norm anyway. il be heading up there in a few weeks to "glad-im-stoned" to see a mate and then going up to rocky to visit another mate while im up that way.

Isaac :laugh:

You coming home mate...?

Todays my last day at work, then 3 weeks of island cruises, caving, whitewater rafting, sprintcar racing, bungee jumping, zorbing and hire car thrashing in new zealand, before moving back to brisbane at the end of next month :D

Daz: yeah i guess i probably should have gone with sunny coast :D

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
