hey, Question - how can you tell when you require a new thermostat?

Going to do a service in a couple of weeks time, RB25det is a fair bit sluggish prior to warmup these days.

In the old days I used to take it out and put it in a kettle with a thermometer and watch the temp on the thermometer and see when it opened or activated the circuit.

Not perfect but it always let me know if it was working properly...

Also it is a thermostat... $35 to $40 just change it lol ;)

when your car overheats.....

they're not expensive so if its old just replace it.

Oh ok, Thx guys. Car doesn't overheat, radiator is pretty fresh. Due for my home service, and probably needs the timing checked. Can't afford dyno time, still :( just sluggish on cold start....

Mobilecouch - see Shaun Dunns at Boostworx, or Martin Donnan at Willal racing.

had my powerrun done today at willall -160kw @4psi and 180kw @ 8psi

i enquired about the ecu while i was there. they said that because it's an "older" skyline that they'd charge more to get the work done but they'll tune it once ive finished modding. meh.

ill give boostworx a call on monday.

can anyone recommend a workshop in adelaide that sells and fits a z32 ecu with nistune to suit a rb25det?

Jaustech brother, tell them Wayne sent you :)

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
