I think the reference was to some probs you had that could be attributed to less than ideal maintenance before you owned it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but things like banjo bolt blocked (first turbo failure?) and the sludge you found when you pulled your oil filter/associated mounting hardware off. Chances are a few oil changes might have been missed pinch.gif .

it was probably me more than anything. when i bought it i never serviced it properly. used el cheapo oils and stuff.. when I came on here I started looking after it..

What about your tranny? Or was that your own doing? RVO said it was pretty trashed...LOL :whistling:

nope? he said that for the amount of K's that the car had done it seem like it was pretty spot on.. he said your pan must have been dropped and changed..and thats why it looked like it was in good nick.. with the previous owner your car had, i wouldnt talk buddy :ph34r: i know a lot more about your car than you think..

just sayin lol

bahhhhaaahhhaaa!!

Jaffa sledge time!!!

lol craig arent Jaffas red? should start calling you a mars bar..

What the hell is he doing trashing his tranny? Is that what the young kids are calling it now?whistling.gif

200 is running ok now.

all the electrical stuff is sorted $300 later.

got scott to weld me up a suction pipe for the stock s15 airbox and z32 AFM. perfect

put a new front mount return flow cooler in, which is proving to be better than the massive Greddy one.

standard s15 BOV with grub screw so no more fully sick dosing..thank f**k.

all I wanna get now is a new fuel reg, as the one i have now is malpassi rising rate(a piece of shit)

then i'll head up to cihan for a tune..if i hit over 200kw ill be happy. this has tooooo much response as it is.. ass goes out 2nd and 3rd in the dry.. quite fun.

Good stuff.thumbsup.gif

Back on topic, I cut the centre bar out of the opening of my Aero front bar; I think it looks better (too late anyway) but it was a breeze with my new cheapy Ozito multi-function tool.

The ones that have an oscillating (as opposed to rotating) blade; put the blade against your hand; big vibes, no cut. On a plastic bumper, it just pushes through literally like a hot knife through butter. Very neat, no burning or melting of the plastic, but no monster furry edges like a hacksaw or jigsaw cut.

Still dragging my feet about the mesh; everyone else seems to like it but me!whistling.gif

Got new tires and drove it to 200,000kms, like a boss.

Sorry for the off topic but? 576.6km and still 1/4 tank of fuel :O. Is the m35 really that much better on fuel?

Good stuff.thumbsup.gif

from memory I think his car is a VQ25DD.....regardless on the Fwy I get in between 650km and 700km to a tank providing I don't hit it.....with the VQ25DET......around town they tend to be a little shit before getting a tune!

Yep, I think the hexagonal mesh I've got will be better with a big cooler behind it; but for the next few weeks, I'll be sticking with the Uleh bro.whistling.gif

At least it isn't blue...pinch.gif

Aero looks good black and without the foggies IMO! Not much of a fan of it normally.

Mesh needs more black I reckon.

A close up of how the stuff I got from Autobarn (I think it's Monza??) looks behind my front bar.

mesh does look good......pity about the gay pascal metallic blue colour around it!

Yes, I think the OEM is diamond mesh though. Mine didn't come with it, and given the pissing about I had to go through just to get the blanking plates; didn't even bother.down.gif

Cam, lol, it is black, just the way the light is hitting it. whistling.gif I'm actually quite happy with the look of the Blanking Plates versus the Spotties myself.thumbsup.gif

Looks to be exactly the same thing; mine was SAAS, but same difference. The stuff I have to replace it is slightly smaller openings than the OEM and hexagonal in form.

And I'll have enough left over for another car. I'm also convinced the Aero cools better than the smiley face front; Win!

Fair enough. The way that light is hitting it, the mesh almost looks like the silver version.

Aero definitely lets more air through than the standard RS bumper, no doubt about it.

Interested to see your replacement mesh :)

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
