So hi,

Car is in the shop having all the engine mods done, and I get it back on Thursday.

Meanwhile I have some stuff to go on, and id like to not have to stop half way thru cos I cant work something out.

Tail lights - I've had a quick squiz and it seems getting the inside hatch panel out might be tricky, anyone know where all the bolts are?

Roof Racks - How do I get them off? I want to respray them

Outside door trims - Want to paint these too, whats the best way to get them off?

Weather shields - Same again, how to get them off?

On a side note, Ill be mucking around making some eyelids too, I'll be making a few styles to see what I like, any left over will likely be thrown up on here. What looks good?

Stag is a S1.

Thanks!

Rear tails for the outer ones theirs two nuts you can see when the tail gate is open, Undo these then the lights pull out with alot of force (theirs these plastic locating lugs holding them in) Then u have to remove half of the inside hatch panel. Its not that hard mate just look at it and you will work it out.

Weather shields are on with clips and an adhesive.

Weatherstrips - best to remove side glass first - use pick or small screwdriver to remove plastics clips from inside door.

Outside Door moulds - glued on and locators(no clips) - pull hard

Roof racks - bolted and doudle sided tape - remove headlining to access bolts - Be careful!! (cast alloy)

    • 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
