Good luck! Did it snap? :(

I meant that I'm hoping that I'm not the one who causes the valves to get munched up after I've chnaged the bellt :P it hasn't snapped, but it's overdue and I won't be at all surprised if it's skipped a tooth or two. My car is running like absolute shite lately.

Speaking of which... anyone seen or know of any good deals for air/intake/engine hoses/lines? Some of mine really need replacing. Going to change my oil pump next service, and maybe my fuel pump.

If only our IT people felt the same way!

There's probably a reason they are stuck at 1st level support in a govt organisation :P.

I wouldn't cross fingers, it makes it hard to put bolts in

I normally just use my mouth...

Ahh good. You'll be right, it's not a particularly difficult job. There's marks on the cam gears and the plate behind em to help you get it all lined up right.

I bought like a 10m roll of fuel hose off ebay to redo all my fuel lines. It was good quality sh*t and way cheaper than buying it from a local rip off merchant.

All the specialised intake/engine type ones I got straight from nissan (it helps to have the part numbers). The majority of them are pretty reasonably priced, but it does add up if you do a lot of them. You could also look at the silicon kits off ebay, but I don't know if they do them for a 20. They didn't do em for a 25 when I looked.

Disappointing form tonight, two events in two nights too much for you?

Good news though, my phone has been shipped :)

drove past around 9pm, nobody to be seen

figured a decision was made the night before to give it a miss this week

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
