Got it Anfanee. It has the top tab missing by the looks of it :(

I'll leave it within reach in the garage. It maybe better than the one you have

Thanks Richard will have a look at our next chat :yes:

Make up your mind

I do a lot of ks per week and also like knowing when empty is empty and that my fuel gauge and light are accurate. When I get a new car I flush the entire fuel system twice with new filters. I'll drive around normally until I get low. I'll then got to my spot where road is dead flat and do laps till I get a sign that its near empty.

I then pull over fill up with the jerry can and reference the gauge point and always stay above it as a safeguard point. I change the fuel filter too again.

Its not necessary but that's what I do.

Pat I just put in a new filter after nearly 2 years and put through injector cleaner as well.

Should I now be changing the filter again and possibly run another flush through it?

Car feel a lot smother now after the injector cleaner.

Yeah should use a new filter for flushing, and a new one after.

Okay sweet I might go pick up another filter.

Wish I had something to cut the old one open to see how dirty it is

Have a hacksaw if you wanna swing by.

I cut my orginal one open from the 33. It was dirty but alot better than I thought.

I find that temperature affects the gauge reading too so it's not always accurate.

I'll maybe swing by this weekend if I don't head to Sydney

going to sydney to pick up car?

Family things and hopefully the car as well.

Still haven't heard back from Iron Chef about it though.

Emailed last week and they said they will look into it for me, Emailed again yesterday and haven't heard anything.

Just sent them a message on facebook to try find out.

Ordered CV boot, caster rod bushes and went with adjustable control arm bushes....

Still thinking about those braided lines

Got quoted $65 for a steering rack boot.....genuine Nissan items but still a tad $100 more for some cheap universal ones.

I'll see what super cheap has to offer.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
