I can't get it undone. Apparently there is a proper tool but ppl open them with screwdrivers. I've tried a lot of tools even tried having two vertical screwdrivers and one horizontally between them to twist and it still won't budge.

Anyone with tricks to the trade for this?

Given up for tonight as I'm getting to frustrated. Also very cautious about using a hammer too move it a bit as I don't want to risk a fire bomb lol

As i posted on the other thread where you asked half the question. A big pair of pliers, or hammer and chisel. there is no chance of spark or fire, as the cap is a much softer metal. We open drums of Resin with these caps on them in this fashion :)

Well you bastards have been having fun while I was on my honeymoon. The Car is now at the top of the throw money at list, I need to get a full service, 100k service and a tune done on it. I would say I will miss this drag day but should make the event after that.

Thanks to all for help. I was raging hard last night after fishing around for 2hrs just for a barrel pump... All sorted and drum opened.. Time for skids tomorrow

Ifyouknowwhatimean lol

Was a good day. As started in other threads. Bucket load of skylines and jap cars in general. A lot more than normal. Local manufacturers not as well represented as previous events.

Favorite cars had to be r34gtr WHAT M8 from mercury and JW Automotives r32gtr that again took out the off street drags

yeah mate got up at 345aqm to get out there so was getting pretty tired. Plus i was getting pretty low on e85 so decided to call it a day during the powerskid comp. Started getting used to the car and the extra power in the second cruising session. Beat a couple of Mercury

s GTR's which is always fun

Yer man it seemed to pull well, puts it into perspective though just how fast some of those cars are :/

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
