Hi guys,

I have been having the same problem, to get the crank pulley off, but on automatic skyline. To remove or to tighten the pulley bolt there is no common way to stop crankshaft, like put the car in 5th + hand brake up. I designed my own stopper and puller. It cost me about 35€ and the tool works pretty well. Here some pictures:

Excellent guide mate. never done this as I have been too scared incase I stuff up the timing. Just to clarify - the tenisioner, when you put it back on you just simply thread the nut onto the bolt b

I just want to triple check. This woodford key doesnt need to slide into the gear sprocket on the camshaft right? 20191220_154812.thumb.jpg.ffa67ae8eba0a984a266f59485695c18.jpg

It's just the woodford key, a backplate that will push up against the gear when I slide the harmonic balancer on. If I recall the woodford key holds the harmonic balancer on this slot here.  20191220_154829.thumb.jpg.c346ad2036b0f5b9c1abeac292ba2768.jpg

Im pretty confident the other one is still in there. I did not remove the crankshaft gear and if I had I'd have seen it. I only removed the harmonic balancer. 

So when I install it, its gonna be the woodruff key (making sure its firmly in place), then the plate that sits against the crankshaft gear, balancer, spacer and bolt then tighten to specs.

That's correct. If you didn't touch the gear no worries. A woodruff key can't slide out

what about torque specs when putting everything back on? there are also a few good YouTube videos to watch before just following this guide. Id recommend changing the water pump whilst you are there. Anyone know if the OEM or the same as the Greddy or HKS belt kits? I don't know If its advertising or they all are the same shit?

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.

      Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.

      Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!

      Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
