(sorry for late reply btw); the front bumper is straight forward to remove

remove the inner plastic guards in the front wheel arches (usually held on by plastic screws & grommets, or sometimes even zip ties here and there)

undo screws connecting the front bumper to the front guard (located in the wheel arch, sort of behind your headlights) i think there is two or three screws and a small bracket either side.

remove your front grill (just to get it out of the way) and reach behind your front bar, disconnect your indicators;

undo bolts connecting the reo bar to the chassis on either side;

front bumper and reo should slide straight out.

front bumper is then attached to reo with these plastic clamping brackets - be careful with these, easy to break (being 15 or so years old)!

i have a 94 GTST with the type M bumper. others may be a little different. but if you follow that guide, you should be able to work out any other little bits you might need to remove that i may have forgotten!

as for the 'hood'/bonnet, i haven't done it before, but i'm sure it couldn't be too hard.

i'd presume; disconnect water squirt hoses, undo bolts fastening the bonnet to hinges, bonnet off. replace with new bonnet, connect hoses (if applicable), and replace the latch (if applicable). might need to adjust it to make sure it sits flush etc.

good luck mate

      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.
