Lost half my passenger weather strip last week on the way to ballarat

so I pulled the rest of it off as well as the drivers side strip

Christ it's a mess of tape and glue under there tho

any advice on the best way to get all the shit off?

Also hopefully getting flywheel Sunday

next week it's on!

5speed

fark yeah!!!

Put my ARC FMIC in tonight, need to make up some brackets for a more secured mounting. At the moment it will be held in position by the reo bar. Tomorrow I will cut the reo bar to fit around the FMIC & finish it up. Pics to follow.

Took the front off my car to get to the headlights & fog lights. I did try to get the foggies out without doing so, but it was impossible to get the drivers side one due to it being wedged against the reservoir for the windshield sprayer (I think). Shouldve taken it off to begin with, was ridiculously easy to get it out!

Hey Duncan, is that the stock m35 intercooler setup?

I was just thinking to myself, good placement Nissan.

If I was going to get an aftermarket unit, I certainly wouldnt get somthing that small! So yep, completely stock as far as the IC is concerned.

cheers.

something like this pic looks like it would suit the m35, even considering it myself.

And keeping back on topic :D, found this little neon floating around in the parts bin so though why not put it in.

Looks a bit like the otomoto intercooler. I'm looking at one of these myself, could be a perfect fit below the bumper reo.

Opposite to above lol...

Changed from my Nismo LMX5's back to the stock, offset-fail 17" RS rims due to excessive brake dust from the 2 month old QFM A1RM pads (What happened? Why so dusty?).

Definite camber wear on the rear tyres but the fronts still have about 95% tread after 60,000kms !!!!!

if you don't get lots of heat into the ar1m's they are dusty and chew up the rotors a bit

the hpx are supposed to be better on the street - better performance than bendix ultimates and very little dust (the dust is a light colour apparently, not black)

so either brake harder or get some hpx's instead

Yeah, I have the HPX pads on my wife's car. Pretty good and no noticeable dust, may have to go with them next time.

The Apexi ECU Harness arrived today, so I will have to get onto the install Sunday, I'm back at work so cbf after work.

Pics of my FMIC install as promised, did it Sat nite/Sun morning.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
