best bet, talk to Jetwreck as he has sorted through these problems for someone at least once before.

mmm.. Nagoya...

Have you changed your aircon filter (in the passenger footwell behind glove box) I pulled one out for someone and it was marked that it was changed 2 years prior at 70k. Only thing was the car was purchased in Oz with 42k 2 years prior.... the plot thickened.

So that sticker has the km it was changed at or the km to change it next?

Penrite also make a compatible oil for matic J which is full synthetic.

I payed closer attention today when I put the car into Drive... The clunking seems to come from the rear.. Obviously the diff has backlash.. BUT the car lurches Forward when it does into Drive.

Sound strange?

I'll so a service on the box, I'll use penrite 100% synthetic, it is matic J compatible.. Dno what you guys think of penrite, but I even use it to oil my BBQ.. (Jokes right)

Is the filter a gauze type? So it is serviceable, no need for replacing?

Checked out the AC filter... no date or anything on it.

slightly off topic

found this behind the glove box

no idea wat it does, got some switch on the right side of the centre console...its doing something, but at the same time nothing ( obviously with the TV)

anyway, back to topic

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
