Question for everyone.

Is Dextron III going to be a problem? has anyone other than Scott actually experience Dex III?

I have a feeling the guys at the Auto Joint may put dex III in, will it ruin anything??

Their theory is that the fully synthetic(newer oils) are thinner and doesnt help with line pressure.

I've told him I have Nulon in there - which he then said he'll get some of that and put it in, so not to mix synthetic with mineral.

but whas the experience with Dex III

Anyone know what the Tein Super Wagon's are like? Harsh as f**k?

There's a bit of anti Tein sentiments here ain't there? :teehee:

I just bought a set of these lastnite to replace the worn out teins that are in the car now. will get fulcrum to rebuild then sales back up on here.

i hope they're better!

BASTARD! I was gonna get those thru streeter but you already bidded on them...57k bid yeah?

enjoy them :thumbsup:

I was tempted to pay more but Jesse said that even when rebuilt they wont be as good as factory state so I gave up lol...

haha yer thats the ones.

my rears are shagged now so was looking to just replace rather than rebuild.. however i think the fronts of this lot are no good but the rears are ok... was unsure with the jap translation. something to do with the height pitch broken.. i figured i could fix that pretty easily..

what the feck does this mean?  

* This is unexecuted adherence verification of the height adjust ring

   Verification of coming out of front shock for unexecuted

   You made the junk item. (The shock the rear is normal)

At a guess, one of the fronts may be leaking, and/or its height cant be adjusted.

Dropped mine in today to get dump/front pipe finally done. :whistling:

Still deciding if to highflow or not... pinch.gif

Wait until you feel the difference the dump/front pipe makes, it's quite amazing...

Hmm, put the aero on mine (except that ugly rear wing)... what a difference! Love it - no more plough understeer.

If you have a stock transmission (even with a shift kit), Dextron III will destroy it.

DO NOT PUT IT IN YOUR RE5R05A TRANSMISSION.

Dextron III is in the same category as Nissan Matic D.

There is a reason why Matic J is specified on the transmission stalk.

pn-mad: nop, it's just sitting in my garage atm... still waiting for the performance shop to get some time to work on it sad.gif

i'm in bris btw

So did you actually buy the full HKS kit? From the pic of the engine bay, doesn't really look like the kit. Just interested how much fiddling would be needed to make it fit. Mostly i'm concerned about the Turbo outlet--> intercooler, with the front Drive shaft.

Info muchly appreciated :thumbsup:

thanks! yeh nulon was put in! :)

seems ok so far.. tomorrows tune should be good.

shift kit in today.. and got some sougi 6000..

Pnmad: sorry couldn't tell u, as the kit is still in the 3 boxes it came in. Don't worry abt the intercooler piping too much, what's more interesting is the exhaust manifolds... But I *think* they will fit. I haven't had time to closely inspect it yet but I *think* the turbo will sit in the passenger side of the engine bay.

we should rename this :whistling:

on how to REPLACE all your CAR PARTS on NM#%:domokun:

Or how to replace all your small letters with CAPITALS...

Dcdc, from what I saw of the kit in the picture, HKS used the stock manifolds off the VQ25det, any chance you could take some pics?

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
