I have read this thread with interest and am happy to see that the majority of forum members have sensible opinions about this incident.

I have yet to offer my opinion on the matter to date, apart from agreeing with some others.

So therefore without further hesitation I would like to announce:

MINES_DATSUN - you win B-Man's TOOL OF THE YEAR ! ! ! ( and it is only Janurary - he he :D )

Oh, and here's some tips for you :

(I've listed them all out so you can print them out and put the print out by your bedside and recite it before you go to sleep)

Please do not fix your car

Please do not get another Skyline

Please enroll in Advanced Driver Training

Please get a job and earn money to pay for your next car (and insurance, see point below)

Please do not rely on your parents to bail you out all the time

Please insure your next car with that Insurance Company out of the Cayman Islands

Please find another interest other than cars (Girls are good !) (SAU Fathers, lock up your daughters......:-( )

Please go post on other forums - you waste bandwidth with the amount of attention you attract.

Please throw away all you G-Tech Pros that you use to measure how fast you are going on public roads.

Please think about how many people you could have killed (including yourself) if you the situation was different.

Please think about how you affected all other Skyline owners insurance premiums with your contribution to the increase in 'stupid immature dumb things eva done by 20 year olds with a quarter of a brain'

Please think seriously about taking your perceived ability to drive to the track where you can't do anything else but wreck your own car.

Please do not break the road laws any more - they are there for a reason

Please do not break the age:power to weight ration any more - there is a reason for that too.

Please turn yourself into the authorities for all of the above - maybe they can help you ?

Please ??

i cant belive this shit happens around the world too thought it was just here

parent buy the kid a fast car

he goes racing (or doing something stupid)

crashes it , gets killed or paralyzed

if nothing happens to him go back to strep one

gee , i mean if you cant drive properly then dont drive

and a gtr is too much for you as it is too much for me , maybe you should get a a RB20E (not even a DE) skyline with an auto tranny to get you started not a gtr .

wish the best for my self with 90% of the crazy drivers here.

cheers and condelences (to the poor bus stop)

Holy crap, is this going to be one of those famous internet "Read what this stupid fcukwit did..." threads that gets posted around from forum to forum until we have people signing up from all over the world just to say hi in this thread?!?!

SAU IS GOING TO BE FAMOUS!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks MINES_DATSUN!!! :D

the previous car i had before was a 355 xcop vt commodore.. rid that off.

now its this r33 and i hope my r32 wont be ridden off ...

the reason why there was all wires near the boost gauge ( as you can see it was a gauge lieng around) was becasue my wires were getting fixed about 10 minutes before the accident. ill have full spec details on the car (images) .

i have had ylwgtr2 to come over and have a look with his professional assitance i now have plans on what im doing to get this beast back on the streets

thanks for all the flaming and i appreciate the people wishing me luck next time.

Cheers

um, can you please tell us wtf a 355 xcop vt commo is? if you mean 355 cu. in. WRONG!! if its a vt series one, it'll be a 304 cu. in. (5.0 lt) if its a series 2 it'll be a 350 cu.in. (5.7lt)... or do you mean kw... cuz they still aren't up that high!!!

to tell you the truth i can probably drive a car better then all you 20 year olds in SAU. not the old dudes in here no way.

all i have to say i was unlucky. now shut your frigin mouths and stop flooding SAU with bullcrap thats already been said by people 90times.

Cheers

    • 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.
