On boost is great too.

My 20det on most days would start singing at 2k and make 10psi at 3k, but for everyday driving I found I had to change gears a lot, it bogged down a lot in low revs.

The 25 with r34 turbo starts around 1.9k and 10psi around 2.5k, but even off boost, say 2k through 4k, I can stay in gear without needing to down shift, like going up highway/freeway onramps, stop start traffic, etc. It's much more tail happy too.

It climbs through the revs with a 5kg flywheel about the same as the 20 with a standard flywheel.

I should've just bought this 25 two years ago haha.

Do it man, you won't look back.

On teh way in the next container.

Hopefully less hold ups on this one.

Oh and for the record, 25DET still running flawlessly every day, unlike that god damned RB20.

Best thing I ever did getting rid of that dudd.

Was starting to hear a harsh scraping sound at low speeds, gradually became louder.

First thought was low brake pads/rotors, but then I kind of got my head around the idea that maybe, finally, the shithouse bearings on the JJR hubs had finally thrown in the towel, since they last about 10'000km max.

Brakes were getting a bit low anyway, and I'd already bought pads, so I swapped out my rotors for another set, got mine machined, and after about half an hour of looking around my house, shed, room, and in both cars, I found the brake pads I'd picked up ages ago.

Did work at my own house (gravel driveway), and took my sweet ass time.

Was a royal PITA trying to get the pistons in the calipers to retract to fit the new pads over the rotors.

Found the source of that scraping sound too.

The other 7 pads were fine, at around 25%

Finished last corner after about 2 hours.

Ran pads in at local industrial area. They're pretty damn noisy between 15kmp/h and 0, but pedal feels twice as good as it did with standard Sumitomo pads.

JJR wheel bearings are still in tip top condition, 35'000kms and still going strong!

New world record!

lol

nick it seems your taking after myself a bit, as you know i did the same to my rears, not too long ago did the same on the front pads!

now the point is to take off my calipers and check them properly at times

whats the deal with these JJR bearings, on paper it says they only last 10,000kms? they better not be pricey to replace

    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
