thanks so much Josh.

 

I think the exchange of a petrol tank might be fairly easy for a mechanic  but its the traps for those not familar with this car is my concern and how they put existing parts back together.

Hopefully I may get a reply or two.

 

 

Two Turbo swaps !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that doesn't sound good. how many km did each do.

I am just on 150K with original turbo

What was price labour ,if you don't mind me asking?

Cost me $500 to swap turbos. My original blew seals so i sourced another stock in GC to replace it. The one i got that was told was in GC was definitely not so ended up sending the one i pulled out to Hypergear for highflow. Then had the highflow installed so thats why i did it twice

Anyone will be able to swap out a fuel tank unless they are completely brainless. Don't forget to  help by running your fuel low! And depending on mileage it would be a good time to fit a new fuel pump.

Well actually I haven't met any brainless mechanics but have met many sloppy overcharging and some dishonest mechanics who didn't bother to complete the job properly.

These are the people I would prefer to avoid

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
