I tried to take the nuts off my R34 rims and couldn't undo them haha

Looks like they will need some WD40 and a good size breaker bar.

Might try sort that out this weekend

Lemme know if you need a hand. :yes:

Same issue being fixed by replacing the engine.

I have found a split coil that explains the ignition breakdown, engine mount barely bolted on which explains the cooler pipes popping off, and HEAPS of black goop in the injectors/inlet ports/stuck to the valves. I think it's my "e85 safe" rubber fuel lines...

Mmmmm - looks messy. If I saw that I'd likely change it into a coffee table.

I have no idea when it's more than inflating tires

I is OCD so seeing that would blow my mind -Srsly lol

Got a New pair of Driveshafts for the SkyHatch off Ebay recently.

$200 for the pair (+ $19 Postage) as opposed to over $300 each from Repco.

Put the Passengers side one in today. No More Knocking on right turns!!! :bunny:

Lost a bit more gear oil than I was expecting. (took me by surprise when I got ahead of myself) so I topped it back up with a combo of the Old and New Oil plus some Diff Oil untill I get a Fresh bottle which I was going to do anyway.

Still should get some fresh seals, over $40 each at Repco or $28 each from NISSAN with a 3-4 week wait.

So I'll have to pull it all apart again sometime but that's just what I do.

One car equals at least four cars worth of experience. :D

I've used a few of the ebay driveshafts in my micras. They seem good but dont have ABS rings (I assume you dont have ABS anyway) and the rubber boots wear our and split VERY quickly.

Gave the ol' girl all wet and lathered her up then she enjoyed a nice rince off and a rub down :closedeyes:

Laughed so hard when I saw your sig! I see what you did there ;)

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
