Yep. I need to do some driving this weekend to use my fuel up, want fresh fuel for next weekend.

Will take some if I pull them out to put them in. They're all boxed and wrapped up. Brand new and perfect though.

Next thing I need to buy for the interior is these as mine are well f**ked! http://www.kudosmotorsports.com/catalog/genuine-nissan-pitwork-cpillar-interior-trim-set-nissan-skyline-r32-gtr-gts-gts25-gts4-gtst-door-p-1557.html

Yeah i need to buy a set of those as well.

The GTR will be coming off the road next year for quite a while (probably the whole year) so im doing the interior then.

Why don't you buy ( you might already have??) a fuel tank drain kit kat? So you don't waste fuel for the sake of it, drain it and stick it in the tow mobile.

Driving the GTR to empty $40 fuel out of it is hardly a chore.... lol

Usually I'd drive the GTR to the event using the fuel I wanted gone then stick fresh stuff in it but this time it's going up on the trailer.

And so the Trailer life commences......

$40 worth of fuel. Suppose, thats 10 minutes worth

It's just too much of a pain in the ass to worry about breaking it.

At Cootamundra this year after I did the transfer case I took it a lot easier than normal cause in the back of my mind I always think how i want to drive it home.

Tempted to drive it but I'd rather travel up with Pete rather than having to take 2 cars.

Rain gods were kind! Gated all around town! Supplies gathered (plugs, oil filter, power steering belt), errands run!

Got stalked out in Fyshwick by a random tradie that followed me to Motor Spares!! He seemed harmless but was a little scary!!

Hmmm might need to dig out my rattle gun or wait for Pete to get home...My girl hands can't get my seat bolts out and I have a nice bruise forming and scrape on my arm courtesy of the GTR...

=(

tried using your feet? Sounds funny but legit

Funny... The hard one to get out went straight back in easy and the easy one to get out is now being a bitch to get back in.

I don't have much patience I can see why I usually pay to get shit done!

probably telling you how to suck eggs, but make sure you don't crossthread it.

I say that every time I work on my car....

Haha very wary of crossthreading, all good!

But yes, my delicate hands were not made to work on the GTR. I have 2 small grazes, a bump on my arm and a small chunk of skin missing from my finger but GTR now has fire extinguisher!!

Busy with the charade.

New shocks installed. New pads installed. Tranny oil. Degreased engine bay and searched for source of oil leak but can't see anything yet.

I feel like I need a bucket seat with this car haha. So much body roll!

Time for rego inspection :)

Mad! Busy People gettin' busy. :thumbsup:

Funny you should say that about body roll Chris, surprisingly little in the SkyHatch, even with what I suspect are the 24 year old stock shocks. :D

Reset the ECU lastnite, drove to work and back and checked for Fault Codes this arvo. ALL is GOOD!

Redid the positive battery terminal connections and now I can fit the insulation cover dealy over it properly.

Removed the remaining rego sticker.

Might go the Vac, Wash n Polish tomorrow.

Edit* May have gotten myself a secondhand Haynes Manual for cheaps too. ;)

Yay! Good stuff, get into it.

Delicate fingers are better than all thumbs!

:( Think I'll have to get myself some lower springs ;)

That's my plan too.

Paint job on the car is a bit strange. Looks good/original in some spots and some spots are patchy and look like they've had a dodgy repeat.

We'll see how she comes up :)

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
