The Black Hole magnets actually come as a pack of 6 so they go all the way around the oil filter. Richard sent me them to test out, cut apart the oil filter, take photos and show the results of how they work.

In the next batch if people want to order them by all means we can.

Regarding the postage, I calculated it at around $3-$4 if the thickness passes with normal Ausrtalia post. If people want them ASAP however, I can send them in an express post 500g satchell for an extra $5 if that is cool?

If any one else wants to pay an extra $5 to get it express posted to gaurantee it being delivered before the weekend let me know by tomorrow morning.

Yeah that's fine. The sump plug will be the same as ours, the diff plug you will have to let me know the size though (might be the same as ours).

Is the ones on the skyline just that 13mm square hole? if so yeh i think its the same

Im cool to wait, Not due for a service for another few weeks so no rush, They look and sound good. Sounds like it will probably pull my big end away from my con rod lol.

But sound like they will be a good bit of insurance :D

Righteo I think I have gotten around the thickness problem. Without the plastic vials and when the plug is on its flat side, the thickness seems to be border line lol.

So when the plugs rock up and you are wondering "Where the hell is that plastic vial that he showed in the photo?". That is why. I did however include the little yellow paper with Dimple, M12 etc written on it :D

Hey Phil,

I am happy to hold mine until the clutch line arrives.. would save posting twice.. could prob leave mine in the vial then.. or take it out... if not let me know and i can transfer more monies to cover the extra costs..

also would be down for the oil filter ones along with diff & gb if we can get confirm on sizes.. on next group buy..

All sent! (I sent yours as well Craig, it's all good.)

Hopefully every one gets them by the end of the week, if not early next week. N1GTR I sent yours express so you should get it Thursday the latest.

One thing I was thinking of though, I hope they don't some how get lost by attaching themselves to a conveyer belt or something! They are just so damn strong lol.

As for the next group buy, I will awaite EJD001 to post up details for the diff and gearbox plugs and then start the next group buy than. We can do the diff/gearbox/sump/Black Holes all in the next group buy.

I'll keep every one posted.

:P

Sump, gearbox and diff really (the diff and gearbox will actually shed the most amount of metal).

I can't think of any thing else? Maybe on a GTR transfer case aswell?

different thread size again

Yep just got it!

I have to say, it's a lot stronger than I was expecting. Definatly in for the other ones when you do those-just add me straight away and tell me how much :bunny:

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
