Beau, don't go getting PC mate, I new what you meant, and we STILL haven't got a pic of that bloody airfreshner yet. Someone is squibbing............................keeping their mods to themselves.

Now I was thinking of using a pine tree one off the rear view mirror, but I reckon it'd interfer with my fluffy dice, so I thought I'd get one of those ones that squirts stuff every 10 minutes and put it on the dash wiff some tek screws and silastic, but I've gotta remove me crucifix and the virgin mary statue first. So you see I'm at a loss, I just don't know what to do, if only I had some pics of somebody elses airfreshner mod and then it would give me some ideas. Maybe I could get them to do a DIY guide, I don't know, jeez I'm totally lost here.....................I got this stinking bloody stupid airfreshner and I've got no idea on how to set it up. If I don't get some sort of help soon I'll have to put it up for sale in the SAU For Sale section.

Strange beasts these GTR's..

It all reminds me of Christopher Columbus, he set out to find a way to India by travelling across the Pacific and instead ended up in South America.....mind you, he didn't have a NISSAN SKYLINE MANUAL------lol

Here is my skyline (named Skye). Bought with ugly 17s and a 400R frontbar (gone now, *phew*) and stock engine but this is it now.

ENGINE MODS:

* APEXI POD

* JustJap FMIC

* Xforce 3" Turbo back exhaust with high flow cat going into a twin 2.5" muffler

* NGK Iridiums

* Splitfire coils

* HKS fuel cut defender

* Bosch 023 internal fuel pump

* Bleed value set to 9 psi atm

* GFB Mach 1 BOV

car is curretly running 174rwkw which isn't bad for the boost however it does pull just under 500Nm of torque at the wheels and we all know its torque that gets you over the line first :D

COSMETIC MODS:

* GTR rear wing

* GTR frontbar

* 400R sides

* GTR rear pods

* Jetspeed eyelids

* Factory burgandy colour

* 19" rims

* JustJap Bucket seats

looks good now :) i must say i hate those old wheels with a vengance 3 SPOKE WHEELS DO NOT LOOK GOOD !!! (triddentts only just pass because they are black) amaru's ones i didnt like, he knows the log hit it because they were so ugly... anyways nice ride hehe

Ps i don't like 3 spoke wheels just in case someone did not get that fact. But hey each to there own.

thanks guys.

not sure mate, i bought it from a dealership. never thought i would but i stopped by to see if they had anything reasonable. along side all the holden and fords was this beaut. they wanted to get rid of it cause it wasn't wat they normally sell but they took it under their wing cause of the condition and thought it would be a good sporty family car.

the original owner lived in penrith thats all i know. i think his name was peter or something.

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
