Thanks for the help dude, you know your shit. :91_thumbsup:
The blue hose has kinked, it's not the correct hose, previous owner must've just slapped it on there.
I'll check out those websites and make a few calls on Monday.

How did you go with finding the s/s wound 5/8" hose today? I wouldn't mind seeing if I could get the original cam breather hose from Nissan also depending on price?

I didn't, I worked all day, won't have a chance to look into it until wednesday

Hicas, attesa, gt-st, gt-r, gt-t, R32, R33, R34, R35, evo, wrx, Nsx, type-r, fc, fd, ae86, asashi, sake, sushi. I'm a bit limited with my Japanese. What about t-revs? Fresh from the land of the rising sun? No substitute for experience!

my wife is a japanese teacher who hasnt worked since having kids, but perth is too far away :(

but got 6 bottles of bourbon emoji4.png

Ahh, bourbon/whisky, best cure for any cold or flu, till the alarm goes off at 5:30am the next day. Putting a lemon in the neck of the beer should help out alot also.

yes i agree. 

 

im considering putting honey in a bourbon/coke :)

After 3 months of squealing and telling myself they will bed in. I finally got off my cake hole and chamfered the new front pads. Only the p/s was squealing but I did both to be sure. I took it real easy on them to bed them in and aren't sure why the p/s did and the d/s didn't? Dba slotted rotors and bendix advance pads. Any ideas?

what process did you follow? 

 

i have Q1RM pads. they said to do 2 runs from 60-0 as fast as possible. then 2 runs from 100-0 as fast as possible. i had just skimmed rotors too. never had any noise from them

Ill check out what we have at work tomorrow and see if we have anything like it and let you know. I went with the clear s/s wound so it wouldn't collapse and could see if it was leaving any oil residue or staining inside the tube after the s/s wool packed catch can. Before the air intake to the turbo. I've pushed the car pretty hard on occasions and have had no blow by. Yeay. My catch can is a fully poxy drift one. (from autobahn)
I bought it the day I picked up the car to get rid of the evian bottle and garden hose to avoid a yellow. So for the mean time I put another 5/8" fitting reversed inside the can and ran it to half way in the tank and and cut the internal s/s hose at 45* so it would filter fumes and still had room to dump oil. Will fab up a new one and plumb it in properly from Ali when I have the time. (NEVER) :-(

That doesn't include mandatory morning meetings, and customers not getting the f**k out on time.
My roster very rarely changes, but just in case always double check.

Put the whole lot in new then braked reasonably hard 80-20, 100-20. Only p/s squeal. I mainly chamfered the lead and trailing edge at about 30* with a fine cross cut metal file and just took the edges off very minimally. All good now. Just hate doing a job twice. F##* might not have stood on it hard enough.

Did u check if it was a 5/8" or 16mm fitting? Just put a rule on it like the pic I posted and check the pipe o/d (outside diameter) not the swage diameter. Let me know. I would assume it is but always check.

I was worried about the abs juddering on the new rotors and pads if I hit it too hard so was just a guess.


Try nissan. I've replaced with genuine before and don't remember getting raped

It might pay to put a tiny bit of permatex on the corners and rear. Especially if its leaked bad off the rear exhaust cam side before. This will cop a lot of heat because it is near the manifold, turbo and dump pipe. Just a thought. Check there is no gouges or issues around where the leak was and it seats and Seals nicely. Pay attention to the fit up and get everything hard finger tight first then cross torque the cam cover like you would a head gasket. Clean all of the sealing faces up tidy as with a turps rag and make sure there is no gritty bits hanging around or shit from the rag. Use a soft brush to clean up the inside of the cam covers if it's gritty. Set aside a load of time and don't rush it! Don't know how much mechanical experience you have so just general advice. Nothing worse than dumping the gas pedal to a oily smell. Will be awesomeness once you have finished!

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
