I don't think it's been mentioned yet so I figured I'd mention it.. looks like moved threads don't display the number of replies or mention the last one to reply etc.. eg check out the few threads in the 1st page of the Tutorials section.

Good work with the changes.. as a lot of people have said.. can't wait for a dark skin as all this white is hard to look at :)

Hey shell, thanks a heap for pointing that out, i had used that function once or twice before but because the old SAU format let you pick how far back u wanted to see threads i totally forgot about it, so thanks!

There's an option in your Settings to change 'View New Content' from 'new content since my last visit' to 'new content that I have not read'.

I know it's not exactly what you were asking but I just thought I'd point it out.

how are these skins coming along i just dropped over to the IP boards to look @ skins and there are a lot to choose from >>Dark Skins<<

Give it time mate, could be weeks given the time of year.

Im playing around with a different skin - im 50/50 on it at the moment and there are a few minor issues that ive noticed.

So it could be a while as we want to find the "right" ones to offer :)

minor gripe from me- when displaying attached images it opens in the same window. is there a way to change this so it opens in a new window. got used to closing images and have closed the forum down a few times by mistake.

if its a not possible thing that's ok :)

I like how the conversation work by tracking and grouping each reply of PMs into a thread of conversation, better view of what's has happened and easier to back track.

Deleting conversation seem to delete the whole thread of PMs.... is there a way to remove an individual item out of conversation e,g, if that particular 'episode' is not relevant anymore?

can i make another suggestion? when we click on 'my content', could you possibly make 'view all posts by user' the default setting? it just seems thats the most useful... for me anyway. I dont know how others feel about it.

Figured it out mate. Copy in the last part of the link ie in:

>http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/346495-sau-30/

Just copy the last part after/forums/

ie: topic/346495-sau-30/

But obviously for the thread where the for sale/wanted to buy topic of the "deal" started.

That's how I got it to work anyway. Don't really uinderstand whty we can't just copy a whole link though?

I put a post up here (page 11 maybe) and Prank was getting on to it. :)

^^

I tried that aye still didn't work.. Hmm weird

Still says invalid topic :/

Maybe I'm doin something wrong? I copied everything after forum/topic..?

I'm confused haha

Did you copy the "forum/" part? You just want everything after the / on the end of forum/, so the word topic and onward.

    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
