guys guys...heh

im servicing my 94 33 GTS non turbo that has 92K's.

its a 5K service.

it has a blitz air pod and a cat back exhaust system...

high flow cat etc...driven hard once in awhile...

besides a irritating KNOCKING sound in the door that i cannot find even after i take apart the door panel. it mysteriously dissapears after i take out the door panel.

and its NOT from the door panel either...ergh and the suspensions are knocking when i go up uneven rds...esp up driveways and curved bumps...so i gotta get that checked on the hoist...

nething to be aware of tho in a rb25de and 94 33 in general??

thanks lot guys...

ps: when i rev it up...and take off....whaddya mean by revving till the limiter?

which means it cuts yr rev before u overdo it and blow up the engine? if so at what is the limit and is it bad to go there?

the limit is redline (7000) although mine goes to 7500, ermm just general service check all the fluids, check ur pads and discs, knocking sound in the door must be annoying as for suspension is it stock ? should check that out dude. change filters also!

mines now at 89k.. last week i had to change 2 coil packs and the spark plugs, as well as all (3) fan belts... this weekend i'm doing the oil filter... anything else you suggest as we're at about the same km's..? what oil filter and oil you suggest?

on my lunch break just before i popped the hood and opened up my air filter cos the mechanic i went to last week told me that i've got "oil rings" at the pit of my filxer BOX... whats the deal with that?

i'm going to put in a POD filter in afew weeks when i finally get a free whole weekend. anyone got any pics of how they did they pods? i'm looking in the direction of nismoman8 i think... as i'd want to do something like he did.

CC: The best place i know...is Evolution R...its in Bentley.

dont know the name of e road...but comin up albany hwy frm city towards albany...

after diesel motors/mercedesbenz, look out for the liquor stores on e left...then there should be a set of lights where u see right after the lights on yr left is the Bentley Center.

so at that lights, the one before Bentley Centre, turn left and go in.

go in and the Bentley Center will be on yr right and just go. the first right junction **AFTER** bentley centre...turn right. dont turn into bentley center like most fewls ive given directions to...heh.

and go straight in...its at the end on the right side of the cul-de-sac.

Mao's the kingpin of dis place and he does good work...fast too!

other places wanted 3-4 workin days to rebuild and install my new clutch coz e old one was slippin...the new ones an exedy brass button clutch and Mao did it in a day...good work done too..=)

Klokan: just change it to e pod filter...remove the airbox...but keep the little funneling thing to channel the cold air to the filter frm the grill of e car...thats what mines like...oil... i like mobil1 but Mao at Evo R uses Shell and dats pretty aiite too....

Evo R did the beauuutiful yellow skyline frm perth in HPI that was frm 3 - 4 mnths back...check yur bushes and shocks as mine went in this mornin...and gonna pick it up in abit...mao works late..=)

and the shocks are messed up cause when i did the lowering, i did it somewhere else and the other guy totally messed it up...

ergh...

gotta stop goin to different places....

ill put in some pics of ROUGHLY how to put in pods tomorrow here...

      Rear subframe stay bracket bolt removal issues

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes. Probably, given that there is only access from the bottom end of it, go with a drill bit. Don't start too small. 7 or 8mm is probably the right size. You want something that can make a big enough hole to do some damage, but not so bit that it clashes with the steel or binds up and breaks your wrist. A slow speed is probably a good idea too. Once the rubber is destroyed, you then have to get the crush tube off the stud, which will be the whole heat/oil/cutting exercise all over again, but this time with the need to strictly avoid damaging the stud (any further than the corrosion might already have done.

      We replaced the connector just because we could and it was still there, once we swapped the injectors around it stopped. The injectors were something I had thoughts of replacing even before I first started the engine and in hindsight I should have

      Not too sure just yet, want to have a go at doing what I can myself, but to start with want someone to cast their eye over it tell me what needs doing to get it running and back on the road, so anyone with great overall knowledge would be ideal.

      I personally would go with cutting out the rubber. Then deal with getting sleeve off separately. Rubber can be painful to cut, it loves to jam up cutting tools. I normally have success with drill bits, deburr bits, angle grinders, jigsaw, reciprocating saw, and never forget... fire. Obviously different tools won't work in all locations you're trying to work with, and you need to be comfortable with each. You personally may be happy slowly slicing it out with a razor blade, if you are, go for it with one too! Feel free to wait for others to weigh in also on their thoughts.

      So ... I got everything disconnected and started dropping the frame. Three of the four mounts started to come down but the fourth one (the one with the nut that gave me all the trouble) won't budge. The inner metal sleeve stays up tight against the chassis rail although the outer part of the mount drops a bit (and can be levered quite a lot more) but it's just stretching the rubber bushing. So I reckon there's some serious corrosion inside the inner sleeve and holding it tight to the lug at the top of the bolt. Tried everything I can think of so far: penetrating oil, whacking the top of the sleeve to vibrate it and wedge a screwdriver blade in there. I also tried to turn the inner sleeve a bit by hitting it with a chisel at the bottom. It's stuck solid. What do you think about cutting the rubber with a blade so I can drop the subframe around it anyway. Then worry about getting the inner sleeve off after? Will that work? Is it gonna give me even more problems?
