Washing the Micra this eve after driving it from Point Hut road all through the Cotter area. (wow some mad changes have gone down since I last went through there)

Skyline wash tomorrow.

Got the dremel out and put the n1 vents in today.

The Nissan ones are lovely, nice paint job on them already, and they just clip in if you make the hole right.

Reminds me why i like Japanese made stuff.

Washed her.

Also went and picked paint up to do the front bar of the Foz and was going to spray it today.

But after finishing washing the GTR I cant be bothered. I will do it tomorrow avo.

How many cans did you get? I always seem to under estimate :/ Did you get it from Capital?

Did some more wheel cleanings. *sigh* still needs more attention.

Filled up @ $1.70.9 / Litre :O

Rear ended a Holden Cruise with no evidence of impact other than a chicks name, phone number and a memory of cleavage. :D

Too late to wash the Liner now... Must do in the morning.

Tried to fit the greddy oil cooler to the 34 designed to go in front of the radiator however my big ol' front mount appears to be in the way so I think I'll have to fab up some mounts and put it in the drivers side of the front bar.

Also used my car to rip a tree stump out of the ground.

Probably the most useful thing my car has done since I bought it.

How'd it turn out Eric ?

Likely will wash/polish car after yesterdays run.

Picked up 2 minor chips in the windscreen, from oncoming cars yesterday, so will try polish them out with some stuff I have.

Then I think a good movie and some munchies this afternoon :D

Any recomendations ?

Grammar

Richard, I can recommend pork belly.

I already know pork belly Richard intimately. Thanks for the referral tho - LOL :thumbsup:

It turned out pretty good. Will look much better once I blend the edges out. Taking for inspection tomorrow, then register....then sell!

I can reccommend pork belly Richard. LOL

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
