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?

Count me in for the next one.

Will certainly go for the Gearbox, Diff and transfer case ones as well.

Here I am thinking it's going to be a wussy magnet just for tiny particles;

It couldn't get the candle holder off the benchtop but it was damn close!

Got mine today,

Thanks again Phil

They are quite strong little things, Think I'll do like everyone else and get a gearbox and maybe diff plug next time, there fairly wicked little magnets

EDIT: Didnt understand the black hole magnets but now I get it.... Key word was 'outside'

I was thinking they went inside the filter for some reason lol. Never mind my stupidity haha.

Awesome, that means the QLD boys got theirs today, the lower states probably tomorrow and WA probably on Monday.

Yeah they wrap the whole way around on the outside of the oil filter.

For the next group buy i'll go into a bit of detail on the Black Holes.

same.. But i assume its cause he's from mackay so closer to townsville.. any word on finding sizes for diff & gb? i'd be down for the black hole magnets also.. Just add me and let me know price if you source them..

Ah ok, yeah you guys are probably right about the Mackay thing.

Still waiting to here from EJD001 regarding the diff and sump plugs. I might PM him.

Just a heads up guys, it appears no one in the ACT has received theirs yet (any other states?) so don't stress, should hopefully still be on it's way.

    • 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!
