Nice wheels, love old school rays (first dibs if you decide to sell). You can just space in the latch to fit the gtr bonnet, thats what we did.

If that was directed at me I hope I don't have to sell anytime soon as it took me long enough to finally get them on.

They are nice and wide 18 x 10 with +20 offset all around

Real headache to fit

Ahhhh the days of sittin ya car on its' balls!

Yeah it was cool, but the best thing I did handling wise (other than some bigass swaybars) was raise mine up!

Griff, is that a GTR lip on a GTSt bar?

Indeed it is a GTR lip on a GTSt bar. (it could be a type m but i'm not entirely sure)

Got it off a mate and just cable tied it up underneath.

Does the job for me.

Actually can't wait for sunday :)

Hopefully I see you at the next one then.

I feel like I should take this opportunity to say shoulda stuck with the 20?

Why would I do that? The 30 was running as my daily for a couple of years, pulled it out to put some stronger rods and other stuff in, just didn't expect to break the wagon while it was still in pieces :P

It's going back together with a stock bottom end, ASR sump, my custom forward facing plenum/Q45 throttlebody and the highflow off the wagon. In order to be a tightass, we're knocking up some spacers so I can use some old Neo injectors that I have lying around (after a clean), 370cc should be plenty for the highflow as I'm not exactly going to be leaning on it very hard.. whatever it makes at 1bar of boost will be fine for a while.

List of things to do:

-Bolt reconditioned front callipers back on (as soon as chuckie brings them round :P)

-Get clutch cleaned & inspected (HKS twin for cheap cheap.. hopefully it's ok! heh)

-Bolt head & ancillaries on to block (easy)

-Drop engine in car (easy)

-Get my mate to weld a pipe to throttlebody (hard)

-Fit NIStune board to ECU (easy)

Interior will be back together this arvo and the thermo fans will be mounted and wired. Already got all my top end gaskets, just waiting for spigot bush and throwout bearing to arrive. Can put engine together but can't drop it in until I have those.

Once the brakes are on it can come off the axle stands, carport position swapped with the wagon and wagon turbo removed. Then really I'm just waiting on workshop availability which should be this weekend! Not bothering to book in for a tune until it's all together though.

It's not a showcar if that's what you're thinking! But under the skin she's built to take a beating ;)

No build threads, but a lot of shared ideas :thumbsup:

That just made my day that little bit brighter.

At least there is still some people left that aren't all about autosalon

Ironic, I remember cars from autosalon having big wheels, poorly fitted body kits and lowered too low for looks and not performance...

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
