hey mate, thats mine,

mate i wana have alook at your cars, checked out your blog, cant believe you converted a r33 gtr to a r34, thats insane lolz

Curry at Taj tomorrow? Anyone? Around 7ish.

Adam: I'll pick you up if you wanna come.

maybe is that the one next to nandos? i got to do a bit off assignment work b4 the weekend. ill be at uni most of the day to.

LOL this guy!! hahaha if u like being in bush land then griffiths for u!

ummm... sorry dude... but the Mayne uni is 274 acres of land next to a river. If you've seen old pictures of it you'd see that it was much more bushland than Griffith will ever be. They have duckponds (and turtles in some of them!) and gardens to keep that nature feel to the uni.

Acre for acre scrub for scrub UQ St Lucia would be considered the most 'bush' of them all. That's the whole reason James Mayne picked the site in the first place. He meant for a Uni to be constructed somewhere peaceful so the students could learn in peace. The nature aspect was the biggest contributing factor in his purchase of the land (and subsequent donation of said land to the Uni)in the early 1900s. If it weren't for him, UQ would have been built at Kelvin Grove when they moved from George St.

Been there and at QUT.

Not very peaceful really.

But yeah, I do go to UQ... can't comment.

Yeah... but it was when it opened, and for a very long time after that. Brisbane has only become this insane in the last 10/15 years because of all the Victorians moving up here and destroying everything. If not for them we'd still have a pretty peaceful town overall.

Oh ok.

Eventually our paths will cross haha.

I need one badly

HKS FCon though, so thinking either PFC and save money in tuning over time or tune the FCON.

true how'd that happen do you know? coolent system as in water pump? or something else?

People have said possibly heater pipes behind the block has given way.

When the water temp creeped up, i pulled over and heard water going everywhere and then popped bonnet. Steam was coming from the back of the block and the water pump.

So there is a leak at the water pump and the pipes are probably busted.

Hoping its nothing else.

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
