So thats gearbox oil, diff oil and exhaust polish done today :D

Whoever did the gearbox oil last time definitely made sure the plugs were tight... They were a real pita even with a breaker bar... :angry:

At least gearbox feels a lot nicer now, will be interested to see how it feels cold mornings now.

Nice! :)

What fluids did you use? I found that Cold mornings, even though 1st to 2nd was still a bit Stiff, it was definately smoother and less crunchy.

On the tight plug thing, I got the Exhaust place to Crack my GB filler plug while up on their hoist. It was still a major pita to undo but with a jack under a breaker bar it finally Cracked. ;)

machined rotors.

found brake fluid leak from bleed nipple.

was also crooked.

removed to straighten.

no yhread left for it to go back into.

swapped standard brakes back on.

bled up.

thank god I kept those.

also, removed and disassembled passengers head light due to parker lens floating around.

glued into place.

Nice! :)

Yeah, just bought the same that you use.. Go off your recommendation, will see how we go. So far so good :)

Yeah literally took me an hour to get the filler plug haha! Was uphill after that. Next time it won't be as hard haha.

Also.. Diff oil smells sooo bad lawl!

diff oil smells even worse when you get it on your shoes then hop in your car and it get's into your floor mat and or carpet, i am so glad i changed my carpet. On a real hot day with the windows up it made me feel sick. :yucky:

Having unwillingly donated a weathershield to the NSW countryside at 100km/hr today, I have sadly removed the remaining three.

Sh!t thing is, these have been on the car for well over a year with nothing but cheaparse Go-Lo mounting tape.

I recently redid them with better, more expensive tape and lost one within a few weeks.

Now to hunt down another set...

Can anyone who works at NISSAN Help me? :whistling:

I actually dislike the look of it, also I feel that it serves no purpose as I like to drive with my window up when it's raining. So, Dad ripped it off (thanks -_-). Imo, looks much better however, if it wasn't wrapped in carbon fibre plastic then it may have just looked better - Sadly it was and it got removed :D

Yesterday i waxed the roof, cleaned the engine bay, detailed the inside of the car. And lost my trim detailer :angry: Don't know where it is.

Also got a bolt stuck in one of my socket ends when putting the OEM mesh from richard on... Sigh. It's well stuck in there.

I'd also like to note that richard is COPYING my engine bay. There we go. said it.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
