I usually would use motul 4100 or 8100 or chrono, but repco doesnt stock it anymore, no other place stocks it either, i can get royal purple but its $96 for 5ltrs, i need 7.5ltrs with oil cooler so that starts getting ultra expensive considering i could get motul for $85...

Dot 5.1 brake fluid, can only find repco brand (which they say is penrite but i dont trust generic brands.

Where do people find decent fluids???

Central coast or sydney.

Buy online it seems is the only option and with shipping again its starts getting up there in price... Im used to just buying over the counter... Now i know why i was getting motul oil so cheap at repco, they were getting rid of it...

Ok thks, why do they list motul rbf600 brake fluid as factory line, so if i have braided lines does that mean i can just use motul 5.1 and is rbf600 just if your using std factory rubber hose???

Ok read motul site, 5.1 is specially formulated for abs, i dont have abs, so rbf600 is the go...?

I usually use a litre to flush lines and fill, bleed and top up, is that overkill and should be able to getaway with 500ml to do it. I take all my calipers off and clean, paint and refill all lines like once a year and a bleed and top up after an event...

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p

      Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!

      So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞

      I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat
