Lol that's cuz I've been there 100 times more than you!

i know. its still new and shiny for me. and i loves it. and i wants it.

The only thing you go to Rock Kung for is duck...everything else they make is shit and overpriced compared to China Bar. Yes the service at China Bar sucks...but the food makes up for it.

lol china bar is overrated. there are other places on that strip that have good food at slightly lower prices.

attacking my brakes this weekend. who wants to help?

Better be putting some nice slotted rotors on there!

slotteds, new pads, new fluid, and painting the calipers if i can. never attempted something like this so will be an interesting exp

Really not bad to do. Just have to make sure you bleed the brakes properly. Otherwise your brake pedal will be spongy as f**k and the brakes won't be working that well lol

I'm bleeding my ABS system on the weekend, so if you want come over. I got all the tools n stuff you'll need.

Also, china bar is great if you've never had proper hawker food... ie if you're white :) You don't go to RK for the service or the hygiene. lol gtfo with your culinary critique, we go there cos its cheap, and is done exactly how they do it in the motherland.

I changed engine (and therefore driveshafts/rotors/hubs/etc) without bleeding - just had to push the calipers open coz someone pressed the brake pedal while everything was out....

    • Its also worth mentioning that 30 years after it left the factory and god knows how many missed oil changes since, there is every possibility that one or more lifters are ticking because they are sticky/gummed up. To resolve that you need to pull the cams then pull each lifter, disassemble, clean, reassemble, soak in oil and re-install, and they should come up good as new.
    • What air filter are you running? Is it a panel filter in the stock air box, or a pod filter? Is the air filter the type that is oiled?   If you unplug the IACV, what rpm does the engine idle at?
    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
