suspension bushes as far as i know will deteriorate if lubed, but i'm just a sparky so.... your starter motor bushes could do with a drop of oil!!!! :D :crazy:

How is your alarm going Greg?

haha ok thanks danny

very happy with alarm, no problems at all :D the only thing that i could complain about is the external siren is a little quiet compared to some of my mates ones...but its loud enough, just not deafening bastard loud :D

have you had any time to play around with ur headlights so both low and high beam come on together?

i can't wait to see your impul kit on the next cruise!

I'm pretty sure you don't need to lube any suspension bushes in the Skyline. You just replace them when they wear out (start leaking). As already said, urethane bushes are the way to go either when they need replacing, or when you want to upgrade your suspensioni.

When I fit my Clifford Matrix Responder alarm soon, I will mod my headlights and and do a step by step on the headlight modification for everyone. I think it will be easy, but we will see!

Your siren should be quiet on chirp and warn away but loud when in full song, if you want louder chirps just cut one or the thin black wires on the siren. not the one that runs your bonnet pin switch though!! ;)

I'm with JimX,,,,no lubing is required. There's no real way of doing it anyway. Your not going to remove factory bushes,,,lube them and then re-install them. Whiteline recommend you use there lube when installing there sway bar bushes,,,but thats only because they move just a tad every now and then. All other bushes don't move as the bolts are up against the steel bushes.

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
