Today my tokyo taxi is getting some minor upgrades after Turbs seized and it was Highflowed (GT2871 in the OP6 housing)

Insert - Nistune, Injectors, AFM, Fuel Pump.

Keen to feel what difference this stuff makes

Made a real difference in mine

RB25 prob even more

Guard roller done.

Etch primed. Maybe paint it yellow?

Havent had a chance to try it yet. Volvo is in the shed waiting for parts. So i cant try it untill thats done.

I understand people like to do their own Service - fair enough. But I'm sure there are others who prefer to get it done in a shop ;)

I'm going to do my first 5k service in a shop and maybe every 6 months (Twice a year), make sure everything is all sweet and good to go and after that I'll start doing it myself, and by myself I mean with Rob's help :D

Any/all shops can do the basic service

Oil, Oil filter, fuel filter, air filter, spark plugs, coolant, brake fluid,

Then the checks - braking, suspension, tyres and pressure, lights, blinkers, wiper blades and HORN!

When you end up doing it yourself - keep records and reciepts. (Kms and consumable). This is just for when you sell it.

Oh and wash it more often dude. You didn't get it detailed to let it go again.

Major service every 100k kms - for you I'd get this one done at a Skyline specific shop.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
