^^^ Hey man yeah its true im probably overdoing it a bit but i have my oil extractor so changing my oil is sooo easy i do it for fun; i only change the oil filter every 2nd service.

at 80bux for the motul 8100x-cess its half as expensive as the 300v i used to use and is much better for melbournes ever changing weather conditions.

Might do the changes every 3000then as im probably being waaaay to paranoid.

oh but ill show you some spirited driving man when you finish your exams and we catch up

haahhaha theres something to look forward to :D lol

Yer 3000 would be perfect even if your very paranoid.

I did my first service to my car which was the major service at 90,000kms, the car has currently done 92500 so im probably going to change my oils in around 500-1000kms.

hahahah i can but im not the greatest lol, especially with the 6 speed box. I wouldnt know if its much of a different drive to the 5 speeds i have driven though.

So its probably not best for me to learn that on a V-Spec II lol

Its all good; i couldnt drive manual when i got my car....i had to wait until dark to teach myself. All my previous cars were auto

was funny cos it took me about a minute of stuffing round in 6th gear before realising you have to pull a little knob to engage reverse.

We'll find a carpark and ill teach ya; pretty easy then you'll probably want a manual line after that.

haha that would b good.

i wanted the one i have now to have been a manual but i couldnt find a decent one, hopefully down the track i will convert it but only time will tell lol.

what are u doing up this late anyway lol?

I do my oil changes every 2000kms now just to be sure lolz.

but i also watch my oil and water temperature gauges; I have a red flash when i exceed 89degree oil temps and 88degree water temps.

Skylines are notorious for breaking 3rd gear under a flat shift and big power/torque so keep that in mind when your shifting.

LOL!

You gota money tree in your backyard?

So what happens when your oil and water temps hit the red light..? Do you pull over and let it idle for a few mins?

your skyline would probably be a lot harder to learn in, as opposed to a yaris or something right ?

like a much stiffer clutch ?that's harder to get the feel for and such...

Yeah was a bit tough cos i got a twin plate coppermix clutch and flywheel so you need revs and a nice release to take off smoothly; im doing ok now but still not confident to drive in the city or anything.

LOL!

man i was under the impression 89 is like far from oil temps on the track which reach past 100; i just put it into 5th gear and cruise to get airflow going, only takes bout 1minute to cool back down to 84ish.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
