shit's ready to rock.

Thinking I might need these wheels too.

Thinking it's a pretty good price considering the tyres are included.

yeah that was brutal.

Got a video of it too.

Found a spare though thanks to Mr. Truscott :)

Car was playing up a bit so I spent a lot of time in the pits. Had some problems with boost controll, then after I fixed that the dash was playing up then after that the Diff was peg legging unless I gave it the full beans and a MASSIVE clutch kick. so yeah, pretty average day.

It was the best though when some kids came up and tried to take a picture of them selves with my car in the shot and my mum was like "oh hey boys, why don't you hop in and take a photo!" so they jumped in the driver seat and took some pics; totally made their day!

It's great to see some young ones appreciate your hard work! Even if they don't understand what it is!!

I had someone ask for a ride at powercruise, first an only person to ask... But it was just after I'd pulled in for a split hose... Felt like a c*nt haha!!

Rekon diff is shagged or needs some new good oil?

yeah that was brutal.

what sort of boost control are you running? haltec or standalone?

do you have an aftermarket diff or just standard nissan viscus?

he's running a nismo 2 way as far as i'm aware. oil probably came off the good ship, titanic and needs to be released back into the wild

Edited by Mr. Untouchable

Yeah Nismo 2-way.

Haltech does all the boost controlling. I think I've isolated the problem, just need to have a fiddle to see if it fixes it. Just some settings in the ECU need some tweaking I reckon

What oil should I put in my Diff?

im not sure what you should run but you can get nismo lsd oil off just jap.

i have heard people having a lot of trouble with boost control using the haltec and haltec solenoid. but others have non. it can also be caused by the plumbing of the waste gate. i had a heap of problems with mine to start with as i plumbed it the same as on a few different cars i knew and it gave odd problems. had to change it to a somewhat complicated setup and its been sweet ever since.

Perfect Nissan Harmony.

    • Hey everyone, I recently bought myself a 2001 Nissan Stegea M35, and I've had a few issues that I had to fix, my car would start intermittently and I had a bad rocker cover leak, after a couple days of looking I finally found a part number that interchanges with the OEM starter as the OEM starters at $1300 and I can't afford that, this starter was only $270 and I replaced the start and still had the same issues, I posted a video asking for help online and it went very well, some guy said it was probably a bad ignition switch so I took my dash apart and turns out my ignition switch was half screwed in and was loose, once it was tightened it fired right up, I found a local place called "Boost factory" and they sold me a part of OEM Nissan rocker covers, they were $600 which was a shocker but I couldn't find them anywhere else, so I installed them and fixed my oil leak as the old rocker cover was cracked and warped, I now need to replace my boost air inlet hoses as they have some cracks.
    • I am being real ocd and do not want to make amy mistakes so appreciate all help provided. I am overly cautious so asking for opinion even if i know the answer   few questions,   1.re tensioner, should spring be greased lightly?    2.tensioner has two washers , one pressure washer and other has recessed/ seat. I am going to put the recessed one facing tensioner where edges are cut out and pressure washer on top   3. my car has custom triger kit sold few years ago by guy who initially built the engine. I moved the crank gear and it moved in and out easy, only way to remove belt is to slide the crankshaft gear forward which I did. I have seen these being very tough to move , anything to do with my woodruff key?   it has a crank sensor shown in purple which I assume reads from the 12 teeth position mounted to the crankcase gear   4. timing belt doesn’t have arrow stating front or back just a arrow which I think is direction of rotation . Do you agree?   5.i figured out why my crankcase cover was worn as there was no washer installed over the crankcase cover before the harmonic balancer was put in place. It is missing, anyone knows the part number? It looks like this https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-crankshaft-timing-gear-rear-plate-washer-nissan-s13-ca18-a31-r32-rb20-r33-r34-c33-c34-c35-rb25?currency=USD   https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4535.382Zy2 https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4537.382dSz https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4534.382q4U  
    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
