Ah ic... easy as then ;)

Yeah it should be. I've already filled out the form including majority of the 'office use only' section lol

they should pay me to do it.

This is probably something i should do too... Car has only been back on the road for 6 months

Not a bad idea Scottie considering QMR and QPS like to make sure the engine number matches to their records................oh and the fact that the maximum penalty for not advising them of this can exceed $6,000 :woot:

So merely chump change then lol

Can also request a 'donor' engine number from them, in the case of blocks being skimmed so as the number is no longer visible etc.

All you need to do in such case is fill in the form and list reason as 'engine block decked' and provide evidence (receipt for such decking or similar).

Who wants e85 and p100 discount vouchers!!!

shit Bodo. I've only ever had one modem and it's done it's job.

Although you probably ass rape your download limits compared to mine which would explain why you go through so many modems

Aye, having a radiator is a good thing.

I always had one just thought that since im making 600rwhp+ its about time i upgraded from the standard one

nice. You coming to Easter cruise?

Ps I know your workin but a sickie will help :D

Unfortunately no chance of a sickie. New radiator post in build thread needs your attention Ants lol

that sux Scottie. Will have to be another time

Build thread replied to

You never disappoint Ants!

Currently having trouble with re locating the Oil Filter. Trying to avoid doing the whole thing again. Damn the workshop mounting it on the fan shroud, where it now doesnt fit

so you are trying to relocate the oil filter again?

so you are trying to relocate the oil filter again?

Yes. When the young apprentice did it, he mounted it on the side of the fan shroud. Whilst outting the radiator and shroud back on the screw came loose. To put it back in that location I would have to take the filter off the plate and thus spil some oil. Trying to relocate it to an easier location. Trying to get it to replace the washer bottle spot. But the lines arent playing nice

that will be subject to trial and error Scottie.

As depending on the length of the lines will determine your new location.

My oil filter relocation kit is mounted under the car next to the sump.

Best mod ever. As all the oil expels down naturally after you remove the oil filter (thanks to gravity) and makes minimal mess

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
