re; the booze bus.

booze bus was on opposite side of the road, they just gave us a stare as 20 skylines past them on the left.

The cop who decided to setup on the other side of the road would be kicking him self lol

re; the commodore.

After the photoshoot, the group which was driving back to noble park. We saw a cop pulled over on side of road and a flat bed taking a SS VS commodore with chromes. hehe

Yeah Jamie, I had to leave pretty much as soon as I asked about how big your rims were haha...I was hoping to at least be back in time for the photoshoot after you guys ate, but I got held up...spewin tho...I might just come down to the show and shine to make up for it...

yeah my miss's saw that dude on the roof

WTF :unsure: are those glow in the dark number plates? RBPOWA and GTT4DR, (last pic).

nah just super clean :D

Yeah, it was good not being the only person left out for once. :)

There weren't any troubles keeping up at all. Except for when I missed the U-turn after we had left the car wash I had to push it a bit, second time I've done that now. hahaha

I think my car might've been blowing a little bit of smoke.. Car's running a bit rich I think.

yeah black smoke coming out at high rev's anyway, was behind your a fair bit

Im glad that no one got defected its a good thing i didnt even see a cop on the way home and i had to go through the city lol

Is anyone cruising up on sunday to the show and shine i would rather drive up with someone maybe wash b4 and drive up together if anyones down let me know :D

yeah i'll be washing my car just up the road from there. big servo on the corner, and one before it also so plenty access to carwash

..... i should of stuck around . what time you guys leave the photoshoot ? . i got lost on the way home, meetup with Leanbac around princess pool hall

Hahah I should've taken your offer when you asked me to take a seat. I didn't want to rip it even more. :unsure:

Not too sure what's going on on Sunday yet, but if weather is good, I might make an appearance.

Hrmm that's odd.. I didn't let the car go over 3.5krpms all night. I think it's an O2 sensor problem, I don't have one. hahaha. Seems to only blow smoke after I take off from a long cruise at constant speed.

sounded loud, so just kinda thought it was high rev's .

i'll message u sat night maybe. let me know if you decide to go...cruise up together if you end up deciding to go...?

yea i know how it feels, my car is blowing heaps of black smoke. but no money to tune or fix =[

Yeah, sorry about the smoke if it had stung your eyes or something. Someone was complaining about it hurting their eyes on a ns.com cruise a while back.

Having a quick look at the forecast for Sunday, it seems to be clear. I'm just not too sure if anything will pop up, but will let you know tomorrow night. Definitely cruise up if you're up for it. I don't live too far from the meet spot yesterday.

I think a simple installation of an O2 sensor in my manifolds will solve the issue. Well I'd hope it's an over fueling issue and not my rings. People have told me the smoke is black or white, but my oil drops at times.. :ninja:

Definitely need some light, maybe a day time cruise after the Bday meet up?

    • 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. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
