So I've had the stag for a while n have decided its time to give her a bit of a service. I'll mainly be doing the fluids and so far I've sussed the following out.

Plugs: NGK BCPR7ES (Gapped to 0.08mm)

Oil Filter: Ryco Z145A or Valvoline V04

Engine Oil: 10W60 or 0W40 (Will need approx 5L)

Diff Fluid: Castrol SAFXA 75W140 (Approx 1.5L each)

Transfer Case Fluid: Castrol Transmax Z

ATTESA Fluid: Dextron 3 ATF

Brake Fluid: Castrol SRF

So all left is.

What part number is the Fuel filter?

and

What Gearbox Fluid should I use? It's a Manual Box.

If you've used something else let us know.

Thanks

Mattye

Hope you mean 0.8mm gap on the plug?

I use Redline MT90 synthetic gearbox oil in my 34 expensive to buy but is very good.

you might want to invest $50 or so in a oil pump ( I forget its actual name )

its basically like a big syringe with a hose on the end. Makes filling the diff etc SO much easier.

PM me if you need more info -and I can get you a model number etc.

it holds about 500ml of fluid at one time

Yeah I'd go something pretty close to the oil Nissan use. Funny enough, last time mine was serviced by Nissan they used Castrol Edge Sport if I remember correctly. Cant remember where I put the receipt so not sure what viscosity etc. Is genuine nissan oil fully synthetic? if not, then maybe thats why they used castrol...?

Correct. Nissan oil is still a mineral based oil.

i used a ryco z200 fuel filter, s2 should be the same,

yep, S2 is the same.

and Mattye, i'd go for a 6 heat range plug. i use BCPR6ES with out it missing a beat or pinging. and they already come gapped to 0.8, but check them anyway.

Chears guys. I did mean 0.8mm.

What bout the Gearbox though? What have people used?

I actually called nissan yesterday. The first guy was like is it a Nissan. Then gave me a number for their GTR specalists. Then after 15 mins of being transfered, and me saying i want to talk to a service guy a couple of times this girl goes "I will have to get one of the service guys to call u back". So by that piont i just said don't worry. Lol. I had to laugh though. :D

i know exactly how you feel

the nissan dealer here wouldn't touch it because it is import - i said its basically the same engine as an r34 and you service them! - no they are imports - but what about aussie delivered ones (assume there were some) - oh oh ok we will look into it - no call back 3 days later...

:D aaarg hijacked! sorry

part number 22690-AA007 is the part mumber for the s2 o2 sensor - is this a genuine nissan part number? anyone know an ngk equiv or something?

daniel,

check the sticky of diy and go to the 02 sensor bit. You can use an EL (i think it is) falcon 02 and jsut wire it up :down: ive got one in mine and its shweeettt alot cheaper :P

yeah i found that one, but it seems it works for the r33 or series one stagea - i got the s2 (r34) and one bloke posted that there was a difference between them (sorry i should have stated before)

i did find a part number for it however it is just a part number - dunno if it was genuine, ngk, bosch - it is in the mechanics hands now anyway - if i can get it off of them I'll post up - just wanted to save some time and research for them.

um, no they are not different. If you can find someone with an NGK (or similar) parts book, you will see the part no for the o2 sensor is the same for RB25, RB26 and even SR20. I have an R34 skyline one in my Pulsar (SR20) i sure as hell didnt want to stuff around rewiring a falcodore one to fit and I paid the princely sum of $59 for it (trade price FTW) Just as long as it is a proper 3 wire jobbie, it will fit, but you may as well get the one with the right plug.

    • 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.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
