For the price (around $120-140 per side) not something i would waste a day or 2 on, even the CV specialist said he had some trouble with it...By the time you buy the boots and the packing grease its just not worth it.

If you are keen to do the job click on the link below and ask for a price for the boot kits only. You don't have to bid or buy at this point but be sure to specify inner or outer and give the details asked (such as model, year, 2 or 4wd auto or man etc). His prices for the complete cvs are good and he has a range of boot kits (ask for the cost of posting to Aus): http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-220086277.htm

front left outer, 97 rsfour auto.... could you send him a message and check the price for me rob?

was under mine today on the hoist having a look for ya and wouldnt be too hard to pull em, when you get it off, keep the boot in one peice if possible and take it to an repco or autopro and get em to match up an aftermarket boot off something else, aslong as its close you will be alrite, and will only cost you about $25 -$35 for a boot kit man,

any problems man i can get mine on the hoist and take some pics for ya. let me know

Was talking to a mate bout this the other day. My left front boot is split. He fixes/mods cars on the side. He recomended that if I did the boot I may as well do the whole cv, as time n effort it takes, may as well change it all whilst your there. their not expensive so may as well so you don't have to do it all again.

Well i took the wheel and caliper off thismorning.

Looked at the grease and shit mess it had made and thought ehhhh this has to be fixed today. Started getting over it quickly and called CV driveshafts and steerting here in south aus at lonsdale. Put it back together and drove their. I arrived had it on hoist in minutes and after a quick look said it should be pretty easy. 2 hours later and $176 and both the front outer boots were done as once it was on the hoist we could see the left side had started to weap aswell.

And confirming they were the same as N15 pulsar boots :(

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
