Supposedly the Extractors are Genuine SVD pipes, Grill is series1 or SSS? and ECU has apparently been Chipped to suit cam and port n polish.

Price was hard to resist. :D

Ordered surge tank+fittings for the cressida, some adjustable upper controls arms for the racecar and headstuds for the other gtr. Also ordered water and iac hoses for a patrol im doing a motor conversion on. Annnnnd im out of money again :/

Know your feel bro.

About to spend a solid amount @ Ultimate

Tried everything I could think of to get the broken exhaust stud out of the head but couldn't get it so I just slapped 7 new studs in, new gasket and put the SVD extractors on.

Old gasket was well past it's use by.

also got a new pair of Driveshaft seals from Nissan.

Rang to order them as I was previously told by Nissan that they would have to be made in Japan and sent over. (3 - 4 weeks) and would cost $28.?? each.

Got them sent from W..A. in 2 days for $55 the pair. :D

Will get around to putting them in sometime...

Wow that's probably the only Pod Box that has a lifetime warranty

Rob. Worthwhile finding a cover for the relays near the wiper bottle. Bit exposed.

Not sure if the fuseable links are meant to be covered or not.

The 31 is the same.

Not sure if the Tupperware warranty would apply as it's been cut. :/

LIFE TIME WARRANTY.

You dropped it and it poped a hole in it....

    • 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.
