1> 85 KC Laser

2> 88 KE TX3 Turbo (fairly modified), twas in hot4's

had to rebuild the engine after too much boost, same happened with the next owner, and the owner before me. :D

3> 78 MK II 1.6 Escort (rear ended)

4> 77 MK II 2.0 Ghia Escort (blew engine)

car 3 and 4 merged together as one, the 1.6 manual come out of the 78 and replaced the 2.0 auto, fun. They were also my runabouts while I waited for the R32 to rock up.

5> 92 R32, see how long this sucker lasts :P

1) 88 300ZX .... awesome car kick the skylines butt, had a knack for going sideways ..... targa for those sunny days .... not a dent in it ..... loving relationship til we started having fuel problems .... it was spending 5 week blocks in workshops who hadnt a phucking clue what was going on .....and neither did i at that time .... just was costing me way too much, parts too hard to find and because nobody could fix the fuel problem it wasnt very reliable.

2) My R33 Skyline .... not as fast as ZX .... not as unique ( i actually had a lot more guys checking me out when i drove the Zed haha) But a horny looking car and money will fix it being a slowboat :) mechanically not much goes wrong *touchwood*

Be a sad day when i parents get rid of the Z .... would like to keep them both but cant afford it :) 300zx is great car when you dont have to use it every day!

1978 VB Commydoor

1987 VL turbo (at least it had a nissan motor)

1996 R33 GTSt. Mint car, really miss it sometimes. Now owned by Matty B on these forums.

1995 R33 GTR Vspec.. Fairly well modded. currently has 320hp at all 4 and will be aiming for over 400 at the rears once the new AFM's go on...

1) Voltswagon Beetle Baja (Had big flared guards and huge mags, mild tweaked 1600cc engine, dad and i spent about a year restoring it, looked Mint!!)

2) 88' Nissan Pulsar Vector SSS (Still got)

3) 95' Skyline R33 GTST (Engine rebuild starting very very shortly :) )

Hate to see how you'd rice a falcon! :)

I can't talk tho..

1 86 excel - fully doofed.. sold the car for less than the stereo was worth!

2. 86 VL RB30 - doofed with little mods.. only bought it cause it had an RB motor in it.

3. 95 R33 GTST - doofed and modded. maybe a few cheapo rice features.. :)

Used to have an EB falcon but it was more a gift than a buy, that was my first car. Man what a piece of junk that was.

First car i bought was a 1980 C210 Skyline.

Second was the almighty 91' Supra TT

Finally the good old 87' Auster Xtt :)

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
