I hope you're right!

I'm in Adelaide, so i'll try source one here.

Thanks heaps =)

not sure about 33 but its a b*tch to get to some of the bolts with normal tool.I would get replacement bolts from GCG inconnel nuts something like that. Or go to specialty fasteners and high heat get self locking nuts which need a smaller spanner to make it easier putting them back.

Paid my Rego today and Removed the Sticker for the last time...

Kinda doesn't feel Legal. :unsure:

Now to find an appropriate replacement to fill the space.

Think I'll experience that soon. Change from nt to sa.

Took her in for new pads discs and struts, got most done then realised they had sent wrong pads!! Having a sleep over tonight and I'm so lonely but we'll be together tomorrow...

I had the exact same thing happen to me when I got defected. I actually asked are you serious? And they asked me if I was arguing the point lol. I ended up getting an R32 english translation booklet and the relevant stickers from an import shop. Not a big deal to get, just really annoying.

I went through the pits at dickson today and i got knocked back due to not having an "engine tune up sticker" also for not having an english owners manual and i need all the japanese stickers replaced with english stickers.

Does anyone know where to get a tyre placard in english for the r32 gtr?

They also asked for me to provide stock track measurements from nissan

serviced/rebuilt the rear cailpers, and repainted them to match the wilwoods on the front :)

hey do you have to get them balanced or anything if you have bigger front brakes than stock. Im thinking about getting the fronts first.

# - Rob you free sometine this weekend to paint/add the custom intake mani ?What's in it for you - how bout a free RB20 Actuator

Sure you want me to approach your car with a spanner again?

i haven't told anyone what happend last time. (gained 75rwkws dude!!!)

But yes plse.

If it doesn't run this time I can get more modifications ....

(RB25/30 :D)

sorrry, not sure what you mean?

It was RosePetal who bought the luck last time (ALL BAD !)

I was right from the start - Should listen to Apprentice Mechanic Jeremy. I now move myself to Advanced Mechanic Jeremy due to my knowledge and getting it right.

Thank you.

I'll Petal you M8!

sorrry, not sure what you mean?

Wouldnt bigger front brake mean they grab more than what the stockies were doing. Therefore i thought it would change the braking balance of the whole car specially during hard braking. Thats why i thought when your upgrading its good to change front and back.

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
