Nice! I've stopped worrying about my radiator, don't really care much and I have a GTR one that I'll get serviced in case this cheap ally one is crap or gets lunched by the fan being too close.

Ordered another silicone bend (80mm 90deg) and a bunch of 3.5" hose clamps last night, throttlebody>cooler pipes are so close it's not funny! but pretty close to the fan :(

Hey everyone. Thinking of ripping out my dash to give it a serious clean up and a lick of paint, but I noticed that down on the right hand side (bottom and opposite of the cigarette lighter) of the centre console there is a little grill with a cable behind it. I have no idea what it is or even what to search for on the forums. Was just wondering what it is and if it is ok to disconnect it.

Yeah you can unplug it, i think it's a temp sensor for teh aircon but don't quote me on that

Ok sounds good. Will probably wait for some confirmation on that one, but seeing as I ripped out the aircon a couple of weeks ago I'm hoping thats what it is.

Turboedsloth wins a cupie-doll..

I have no idea what that is or even means :\

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
