hey Ryan, theres a DIY about painting 25 covers here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/354645-diy-spraying-cam-covers/

ClutchBurndout-:( explains a fair bit about removing and refitting.

20 is extremely similar

seeing as you're taking the covers off, might be worth giving them a cleanup or even coat of nice paint / powdercoat / whatever as well

If you going to the trouble of doing the gaskets you might as well paint you covers to, not unless yours are still nice a clean.

Some of the screws on the drivers side are a bit of a pain to get to, if you have a magnetic screw driver you should be fine though.

Biggest issue i had was trying to get the driver side one on without scratching my new paint of, besides that its pretty easy, just take your time and dont drop any screws in the head.

Dont forget to mark your timing on the cam sensor to, i had to re check mine with a timing light as i painted my cam cover.

you dont have to take your cam cover off to do gaskets though.

Edit ..i just read clutchs thread and all it says is undo screws and take covers off except he said it in 100 words what i said in 10.. Plus the bolt under the TB is piss easy if you take the TB off first.

Anywaygo figure it out yourself its not that hard, f**k even cluth figured it out on his own. if i wanted respect points ill go play NFS :)

Good luck

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
