Hey guys I'll tell you a story. I brougt a skyline and had to money to put it in my name so I just drove around ad thought will wait till the rego runs out then I will do it. But in that time I was a dick and thought it would be a good idea to lose the papers so now I have to stat dec it just to get the car in my name and get some rego ad start driving it! But I need to do some things before I put rego on it I am going to rebuild the head!

I was hoping to get a head that I could rebuild and then when that's done I could just do the head gasket and swap heads as I want it to be on the road ASAP so if someone had a spare cylinder head they want to give me or one for cheap please let me know thanks! Pm me on here or send me a message on 0410717935

Sorry for spelling or stuff ups

Welcome to skyline ownership.

Really... purchasing a car knowing you didn't have enougth money for 3% stamp duty, driving it without any insurance and now it needs a rebuild? Hope you saved up for the fine for the transfer over 14 days as well.

So was being a dick losing the papers or the whole process.

Lessons for the young there. Wish you better luck in the future.

I have insurance and the fine is only $100 and I have the money for a top end rebuild I was hoping to buy a head to rebuild so I can do it all in one weekend It's because I didn't do it when I brought the car everyone loses things at some stage

So you have an extra $100 you didn't need to donate to the government, but not say $150-300 for the required transfer process.... Not knocking you for the losing of paperwork.

Anyway look in your WTB request someone has a head for you.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
