HI Scott thanks for the reply,this car was owned by my son he treated it very nicely and only put rims and a head unit in it so it is all STD i drove it about 1 year ago and the HICAS worked fine but he said that the last couple of months he could feel it doing strange things,I have just swaped it for a ve commy as he is about to have a family,when i drove it home 700 ks i drove over some rough road and since that the back end wants to steer itself VERY SCARY.I have been under the car and all the suspension seems ok other than the pass side back strut which has a very small weep this has been there for awhile.I am a mechanic and have been for 35 years so I know what to look for but would like a workshop manual for this thing,love my nissans,not sure if you know what a 240k yes a 240k not a z is, but in my younger day i owned a 4 door version i had a l2.8 in it nizmo race cam high compression big valves 3 inch exhaust 650 holley double pumper and so on,, very wild in the day this car used to stay up with the v8s it was a 12 second car, but now im limited to my patrol until i got the r34.

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.

      My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?

      What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
