So i just got my own R33 a couple of days ago and noticed that nobody has done this yet (somebody had done it for the 180sx i had before)

In light of that and the fact i had nothing better to do, i recreated the fuse panel sticker in english.

It is also the same dimensions as the original sticker, so you could just stick this over the top and never have to worry about searching for a translation again.

(if you don't know how to print it at 100% scale, just put the pic into a word doc and print, should be the right size already.)

There is also an inverted version available, for those who prefer to read black text on white background.

Fuse Box Sticker

Fuse Box Sticker (inverted)

If anyone wants the same thing done for another car (R32, R34, Alfa 33, Other...) just PM me.

i paid $11 or $12 from memory, could have stolen the picture and printed it out but then i would have had to of gone and bought some sort of sticker paper and then a printer or gone to a friends and used there printer, in the end it was either hours of running around or 30 seconds + $12 and it was delivered to my door, maybe you like f**king around and wasting time to save a couple of dollars but i have better things to do.

Print + 4 little bits of blutac == Win in 2mins.

I know some people like to have it looking far more professional, but for the average person, how often do you look at the fuse panel?

I guess im not that much of a tight arse.

You have to be a tight arse to save money?

So when you go shopping you choose the most expensive of everything because you don't want to be a 'cheap arse' and save some money?

If it was like $2, i probably would have taken the Ebay option, but I did it because it's giving something back to the community. I am trying to learn Japanese, so this was just a fun exercise for me that had an extra benefit to other people. I'm sorry i like helping people (o.0)?

I'm not saying everyone HAS to print out the one i created. Unless you are the Ebay seller and you are crying because of hurt sales (which i doubt there would be much), i say why are you complaining?

sometimes its worth spending a few extra dollars to do the job the first time and save a lot of hassle, as i also mentioned earlier i didnt have a printer at the time, but even now i would just buy the sticker.

Im not an ebay seller and where exactly do you see me complaining?

Well i assumed the moment you resorted to swearing you must have been rather annoyed at something.

And i save money where i can, sticker Vs. paper for a fuse panel isn't system critical.

If i were buying say a turbo, then i know to stay away from Ebay for starters and the 'too good to be true' rule applies.

Also, thank you very much for your continued replies, i now have over 10 posts :D

Not system critical so who cares..

Try not to shoot those that try to help anyone regardless of cost.

Sounds like someone has got their period....

It's not critical so who cares? Seems you do otherwise you would not have bother posting anything but of course you think that everyone needs to hear what you have to say.

And if I had my period you would have known about it

tiberis,

is there anyway we could talk you into translating the characters on the main fuse and relay box in the engine bay and maybe the characters on the sunvisor on the drivers side. been wanting that for the last 10 yrs.

cheers

norty4 :cool:

Edited by norty4

i'd be more than happy to give it a shot.

i can do the main fusebox/ relay box for the engine bay for a R33 easy enough seeing as thats what i have. If you wanted it for another model i would need 1 (or many) photo(s) of the panel to translate.

likewise, the prev owner for my car (who i'm finding out was a bit of a twat) has ripped off the notice on the sun visor in my car, so i would need a photo of that as well.

the higher the resolution/ size of the picture the better.

either PM them to me or post them here and i will see what magic i can work.

    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
    • The old approach was to fill the cylinder/chamber with a length of rope pushed in through the sparkplug hole. The new approach is to connect compressed air to the sparkplug hole and fill it with enough pressure to push the valves up. Doing either of these things with the head on and the engine in the car is a lot less pleasant than doing it properly.
    • Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?
    • One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching
    • Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.
