This is where the cost of a Tax accountant that knows what they are doing outweighs the costs   FYI $300/h

Last time I got a stuck valve replaced on the skyline it was free... They came out with their valve replacement tool, took off the valve cap, unscrewed the valve, screwed a new one in... Took 5 seconds, didn't even jack the car up or anything. Just replaced the 10psi of air that it dropped during the changeover.

If its the valve stem not sealing though, then thats a tyre-off job.

Also, if its the valve, then you shouldn't be losing air if you've got decent valve caps on.

Have a look at the valve stem when you get home and see if it looks new, a lot of tyre shops will replace the rubber stem and valve when they fit a new tyre.

Def not replaced.

Should probably look into some blue rays valve caps

interesting...but prob cheaper to buy a replacement ute.

could be the seal around the valve or a bunch of things, last time I got tires on the 200 they checked and the vale steam steal was cracked and perished, so it got new ones at the time.

and yeah they cheap and nasty plastic caps

Replacement ute doesn't come with a Free Instagram account and a boyfriend though...

Buy the Blue Rays valve caps, you can have all of these things and more.

LMAO!!!!

So last night I got some immunisations and threw a post up on FB taking a jab at Anti-Vaxxers... This morning I spot a Facebook Message sitting in my "Others" folder from some ransom person (friend of an international friend) saying "You won't be laughing when your children become retarted due to the governments lack of due diligence!"

1. Yes, she went out of her way to send a message to someone she doesnt know.
2. Yes, she's in an idiot.

3. Yes, she's "retarted"

I don't think this was caused by you being Greg, I think this was caused by that abortion of a sentence.

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
