get the sherrifs to break the guys arm? theyre usually pretty obliging :D

-D

id rather sort em out at the counter than having to get the sherrifs to put them in a kung fu grip and boot em out the door.... just makes them angrier for nextr time.

must say its pretty entertaining seeing a massive biker getting taken down, and start screaming like an 8 year old girl with a grazed knee at the hands of a small asian sherrif though

think i found my new hangout when im bored !

How's this.

Brother was driving his n14 pulsar last night. Went through a deep puddle of water and got into his airbox into the engine and blew the motor. One piston is sitting higher then the others and there's a bent conrod. Took the plugs out and u rock the engine and can see water in cylinder 3.

Insurance covers it tho. Damm sr20's

Hydrolock, it happens. Luckily his insurance covers him, always wondered about that

That sounds a bit weird to me. The airbox has a hole on the side for intake, and the box is pretty deep - so it should easily be able to drain out or at worst sit at the bottom. The N14 airbox works opposite to skyline one too - with air coming in the bottom and into the engine through the filter at the top, so I would have thought it would be pretty hard to get hydrolock?

Never had any issues in my N14 - it used to run a pod, gone back to the panel. I drove it through a semi-flood in Melbourne a few years ago when was a foot of water going across the highway - handled it perfectly (was using a pod filter back then).

how do i find the correct KNURL diamater for extended nissan wheel studs, M12x1.25 to suit C34 Stagea ?

I bought 20 "Ichiba-brand" 50mm long studs, came with 13.75 knurl - wont fit

Now ordered 20 more with 12.75 knurl, got to wait another 3 weeks till they arrive to see if they fit.

getting to be too expensive to keep "guessing" the size.

Ive measured a used one today from the rear and it seems to be around 12.5mm knurl diameter....... Im hoping its similar to the ones Ive reordered just now 'cause they are 13yrs old & used?

confused :P

hey mate: try Jap Import Spares. they sell 10 studs for $40 and we bashed them straight into the drift car

thanks

Ive paid for this second set already, $100 del.

if these dont work will definately try J.I.S. - cheers

oh, I torque them on with a nut rather than bash them on.

got to grab a nut to undo the wheel hub bolt on rear LHS - cant insert new studs due to the parkbrake setup. nut must be 34 or 36mm !!

now I need to see what nissans use 13.75mm knurl - possibly GTR/navara/patrol/"insert Nissan model here"

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
