ok so before the next track day go and get about 3 litres of $4 brake fluid and flush the system well before putting in the Motul RBF600 in.....also might see the condition of the pads as well and then see if it needs changing and what to get next

Let me know when Krishy lol

Your just too good at reading my mind Lukey Boy

if the motul stuff your going to use Krishy is synthetic don't use mineral oil to flush your system use the same type of oil albeit a cheap brand

Thats a good idea

if anyone is after hardcore brake pads, i am an authorised agent in SA for Endless braking products :) (Car Toys is the other reseller)

PM me if you need more info

cheers - Kim

how much for these hardcore breaks kim? and brand/ name website if u have

I've asked my mechanic that and he said it's not worth doing, should flush with the same fluid you intend to run in the system. Took 3 litres (BMW fluid $10 at trade per 500ml that has a boiling point of 302c) to completely flush my previous boiled fluid out (brake pedal to the firewall last Mallala before the course).. aprox 500ml per corner and whatever left over to fill ABS unit, lines and master cylinder resouvior. Castrol make a cheap DOT4 called Super Response (or Super DOT4 I can't remember), has a boiling point of 280c and was about $10 per 500ml at Repco last I looked.

There was 3 newish supras n 1 old school and a 86 chasing me in the mountains section.

Great shots Martin although next time I'll get out of the car and improve them (by my absence) or maybe I just have to work harder on my 'Gun Metal Steel' look.

Nice to see some Supras & the S15 as well. It was fun having a mixture of cars out there.

Technically you can get away with flushing the system with 1litre (when it's rbf600 $30 a bottle, I've got 2 unopened bottles in my garage), mechanic is bit of a perfectionist which is why the 3 litres (when its cheap fluid I don't mind)

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
