Don't know why people have been hating on the oil cooler, as long as it's actually working then who cares.. it looks good and i don't think i've ever seen one on a V35. Chris, you're boosted right?

I have an oil cooler - but it is tucked up nice and neatly behind the front bar on the drivers side (had to lose my window washer bottle though).

Yep, despite having owned a modified S15, R34 and now V35, I have NEVER been to Regency :) ..... you only go there if you get defected.

Who's palms have you greased! Geez! My brother lives down there and said that people tend not to sell their OEM parts because they need them for regency. Apparently sodomy is quite common over there. :/

Yeah I keep all my stock parts and always have. But I don't drive like a dickhead, don't drive on bald tyres and keep my car pretty clean and tidy. Doesn't hurt that I am a bit older than your average Skyline driver .... also doesn't hurt that I am not out cruising the Bay or the City every Fri/Sat night, and don't hang out at known drift/meet spots - these are where quite a lot of defect occur.

^^ exactly. Another reason why I also avoid organised cruises

Police see event cruises, night driving, driving in crowded areas with windows down... as being for entertainment only and therefore a public niusance. driving here now is nothing like it was in the 90's.

^^^ depends on who is organising the cruise though - tomorrow night's BSM cruise will have something like 500+ cars at it, yet will be completely police friendly and they DO NOT pick on cars on the cruise unless you have very BLATANT illegal mods or are acting like a d!ckhead. You should come along! Melzi is coming.

Used to be boosted.

Ahh... maybe one day again. Look at turbo kits all the time, lol. Ordering another cup kit. Finishing the exhaust. When that's all done I'll either decide to keep the cooler for a long time or just throw it away (because I really don't think I'll ever need it... even when boosted again).

I'm the kinda person I don't know if I like it until I actually see it. So I always buy stupid crap just to play with and then sell or chunk.

Just look at this old picture :wacko: :unsure:

I have 275s on 10" +12 rims hanging out my back guards, low front and rear bars, dark tint, noisy exhaust, and I use my car daily for work (30,000km a year) and in nearly 3.5 years am yet to be pulled over :)

However in my old R34 and S15 before that used to get pulled over regularly.

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
