Ok so 1st mechanic told me the noise from the rear was tyres, 2 weeks later 2nd mechanic screwed wheel bearing, when replaceing said bearing was found to have a damaged hub due the the length of the damaged bearing being in the car, so i needa new hub, does anyone know the part number from nissan and am i able to use a hub off a 305z for this? i found some on ebay from the US but i need one in like the next 3 days.

Nissan would not give me the part number but quoted me $490 for the hub, i asked if it was same hub as a 305z was told probably and then he said y do u think we have 1 in stock when your car is an import. So same hub as a 350z

Oh god, now im afraid this has happened on my car too.

I hear this winning whirling type noise when going over 80KM/h coming from my front left. Sounds almost as if im driving on the line in the road.

Is this what you had aswell?

mechanic said it's probably the bearings.

There are enough of these around now to at least get a hub off and then consider if you put a new bearing in it.

From ebay - Wrecking a nissan skyline v35 350gt. 2003 model, front damage. Plenty of parts left. Email or call me on 0415494458 for availability and prices. This auction is for a light bulb for rear brake light. In Melbourne.

I was considering Just Jap (I agree, they were awesome to deal with) but too lazy to get the bearing pressed out.. its been like that for a lil bit but could be worn down.

Obviously better than paying Extra $$ from Aus Nissan.

I am in the U.S at the moment and considered getting this http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/search/?searchType=global&N=0&Ntt=HA590027&submit= as it will save me shipping costs however don't want to risk missing delivery lol so will maybe will end up going the Ebay purchase.

In the meantime, love how things in general are cheaper here. EG Meguiar's Gold Class Shampoo at Super Cheap was like $24.. and in Walmart it was $6.97 + taxes!!

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
