for what it's worth...I'm using the steel ones Neil is having trouble with, and no problems atm. Mine have had far less use than his though. One other problem with them is 20l is bloody heavy to hold the jerry while it slowly fills....and for a skyline 20l jerrys really are not big enough (my car does about 100l/100klm at full noise).

pete - the trailer mounts are for the rectangular plastic or metal 20l jerries that neil and i have. same as the death trailer which has 4 mounts on it.

stu - no such rules with CAMS, and I'd be surprised if adnra had one considering how the jungle juice always comes in metal containers.

russ - neil already has a dipstick in the car - it sits between the steering wheel and the seat. ha ha ha.

Oh everyone loves a smartarse,,,.

Pete,,,if you are using the plastic crap that Duncan has,,,then you need to remove the wood bits and suffer the expansion,,,if you are using the metal ones then they should fit,,,but not snuggly. Seems the brackets are not made for metal cans as I have the same problem as you. they flop around like a cock in a sock.

Russ,,,ask Duncan about dipsticks,,,seems shorter dipsticks are all the rage or ask for directiions to my house,,,NOT. :banana::P:banana:

I had the same problem.....best investment I made was a marine grade jiggler hose available at boating shops. Simply put the jerry can on the boot, one end of hose in the fuel filler - other end in the jerry and it practically fills itself :thumbsup:

Oh my god,,,you put a jerry can on the boot of a Skyline Shame on you!!!. Maybe on a commodore and a falcon but not a Skyline.

LOL Neil you won't find a more fastidious (spelling?!?) GTR owner who tracks it anywhere...just ask Mick from Micolour :P The jerry can doesn't go DIRECTLY on the boot without a suitable layer (or two) of cotton or microfibre. I can assure you that the paint hasn't been marked once.

Okay I'll take your word for it,,,but if I ever see jerry can sratches on your boot lid,,,I'll,,,I'll...I'll cry.

These are what we bought,,,funny the yanks now mould them with "Water",,,stupid bastards. They worked a treat,,,thanks to Mr Handley and much dedate on

working out how much fuel I was using at Oran Park GP we worked out that 7 litres is about right for supersprinting,,,not 20 something. So thats about 10 to 13 kilo's or more I don't have to drag around the track.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
