i think i should have all the tools you need to get it done..stands and socket set...:) i can help .. pm me more details when you want it done to see if i can make it tht time :)

PS - Ash is right...takes too long if you drive up...someone will have to drive to ur place to get it done...much more of a time saver...otherwise around 30-60min wait depending on how much the car has been driven

Dump pipe to turbo flange has nuts, so you shouldn't have a problem with snapping studs unless your rear turbo housing is really rusted through. I did snap or thread one bolt on the dump pipe to front pipe flange...but that's nothing a hack saw can't fix! Get the gaskets from Nissan...don't get cheap eBay shit unless it's genuine, they DON'T WORK.

charles my boy. i can do this for you. have tools etc. you can visit your g/fs family while i do it LOL

will be able to do it next week if you wanna wait till then? if not hit scotty up. as much as he hates doing things like this lol he will still doit for ya. good guy he is.

Sounds like we might have an episode of SAU Vic TV here... ...If you'll let me come along...

Hahahahaha film it, and all the swear words too. Charles, like I said, if you're not in a rush...I can help you :)

you never heard of an exhaust shop mate, they have things called hoists that lift cars up and make jobs like this really easy, shouldnt cost more than 50 bucks.

$50 to get a dump pipe swapped?

Tell me where! They cannot be making money on that. I'd cost at LEAST $200

It has both actually. In the 6-7 I have done (21U) they generally have 2 studs at the bottom with nuts, the other 4 are bolts.

Charles this is a piece of piss and a pain in the ass at the same time. Realistically it is a 1 beer job, maybe 2 if you still have all the heat shielding and shit installed.

WD40 the nuts/bolts up heaps. Let it sit for at least 10 mins, then hit em again.

Then try to crack them one by one, once cracked roll them backward and forward 1/4 turn. If they are still tight keep rolling then backward and forward, if they are loose and coming out just undo them all the way. If they are tight and you don't roll them back and forward you risk snapping them. Dance a jig and stand on your head drinking water also helps.. :|

The bottom and top ones are a piece of piss, the two in the middle can be hard to get at.

You will need a new one of these. Andy should be able to get them for you in singles without the rest of the kit.

    • The values for HID colour are also defined ~ see https://www.legislation.gov.au/F2006L02732/latest/text  ~ goto section 3.9 onwards ....
    • So, if the headlights' cutoff behaviour (angles, heights, etc) are not as per 6.2.6.1.1 without automatic levelling, then you have to have to have automatic** levelling. Also, if the headlight does not have the required markings, then neither automatic nor manual adjusters are going to be acceptable. That's because the base headlight itself does not meet the minimum requirement (which is the marking). ** with the option of manual levelling, if the headlight otherwise meets the same requirements as for the automatic case AND can be set to the "base" alignment at the headlight itself. So that's an additional requirement for the manual case. So, provided that the marking is on the headlight and there is a local manual adjustment back to "base" on the headlight, then yes, you could argue that they are code compliant. But if you are missing any single one of these things, then they are not. And unlike certain other standards that I work with, there does not seem to be scope to prepare a "fitness for purpose" report. Well, I guess there actually is. You might engage an automotive engineer to write a report stating that the lights meet the performance requirements of the standard even if they are missing, for example, the markings.  
    • Vertical orientation   6.2.6.1.1. The initial downward inclination of the cut off of the dipped-beam to be set in the unladen vehicle state with one person in the driver's seat shall be specified within an accuracy of 0.1 per cent by the manufacturer and indicated in a clearly legible and indelible manner on each vehicle close to either headlamp or the manufacturer's plate by the symbol shown in Annex 7.   The value of this indicated downward inclination shall be defined in accordance with paragraph 6.2.6.1.2.   6.2.6.1.2. Depending on the mounting height in metres (h) of the lower edge of the apparent surface in the direction of the reference axis of the dipped beam headlamp, measured on the unladen vehicles, the vertical inclination of the cut off of the dipped- beam shall, under all the static conditions of Annex 5, remain between the following limits and the initial aiming shall have the following values:   h < 0.8   Limits: between 0.5 per cent and 2.5 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.0 per cent and 1.5 per cent   0.8 < h < 1.0   Limits: between 0.5 per cent and 2.5 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.0 per cent and 1.5 per cent   Or, at the discretion of the manufacturer,   Limits: between 1.0 per cent and 3.0 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.5 per cent and 2.0 per cent   The application for the vehicle type approval shall, in this case, contain information as to which of the two alternatives is to be used.   h > 1.0   Limits: between 1.0 per cent and 3.0 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.5 per cent and 2.0 per cent   The above limits and the initial aiming values are summarized in the diagram below.   For category N3G (off-road) vehicles where the headlamps exceed a height of 1,200 mm, the limits for the vertical inclination of the cut-off shall be between: -1.5 per cent and -3.5 per cent.   The initial aim shall be set between: -2 per cent and -2.5 per cent.
