lol how did you find those apexi bov's?  

sweet car btw man! its a shame you couldnt keep the exhaust etc

When I took it for the first drive to the transport dept. for rego, I carefully performed my first gear change, only to go WTF was that! Damn loud blow-off noise. Came back to the workshop and asked, whats the go with the blow-off noise?? Answer "yeah they are noisy aren't they, they looked standard to me though." By Sunday I was like, know way are they standard, pulled the front right indicator off and shined a torch in, and there they were!! One set on loud, the other normal. I now have them both on quiet, and its not to bad.

If I had a dollar for every time I have heard, "but they are both the same". I think I am going to kill the next person who says that!

Cheers crooser.

Congrates Blitz, I reckon I should ring Steve and hit him up for a spotters fee!! Black GTRs always look good. Might see you at the massive skyline cruise, I should be their, mine is getting the odd thing done to it, but should have it back in time. Got to christen mine on Mt Nebo last night, lots of fun. Started off taking it easy, but got bored with that fairly quickly, so much grip over a GTST.

actually its mods in the FIRST day or ownership :)

nismo fuel, radiator and engine oil cap :)

You forgot the rims, and then the rotors the next day!!

Tint is going on this morning. Nice and dark, but not too dark of course.

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
