Thanks guys I have some of your PM's. I'm flat out at work today and will only be able to respond after five. Thanks for your patience.

If you havn't PM'd me yet please do.

As time is getting closer, just wondering if this all can be done before the next fun day 19th Dec @ Winton?

PS: not sure if I have mentioned in PM, but I DO NOT require remote oil filter setup.

Shouldn't be a problem mate. I'll get all the details off to Toby @ Meridian tomorrow. He can order what he doesn't have overnight and can start shipping early next week.

Is it too late to put in an order?? For R32 GTST.. are the prices the same as before?

Credit card payment alright? Did anyone get Meridien to install theirs? How much was it??

If its too late its all good, we're up for the next group buy so let me know.

woot! So many questions, thanks :rant:

(so hard to keep up with the forum *and* maintaining 3 nissans, let alone anything else!!)

No, Not too late yet. Prices have all stayed the same as in the 1st post. Credit Card can be arranged. Meridian have done a few of these for SAU people, but they do them all the time on a large variety of cars. Installs can be arranged after the group buy has gone thorugh. But please go through here for the group buy price 1st.

Each install will vary as diff model lines have diff amount of space in front bars. Install is based on man hours to get the job done. Meridian have looked after us when installs have been difficult, by not charging us the full amount of hours spent on the install.

This round of oil coolers will be closed by the end of next week 10/12/04

Please PM me with the following details:

1. Your mobile number (In case we need to ask you anything)

2. Your prefered method of payment

3. Your intended place of install (behind radiator, front bar - drivers - passengers)

4. Your shipping address

5. Your vehicle type

6. any other information you think may be relevent.

I will reply with a price and information on how to make payment.

Damn... My posts keep disappearing from this thread.

Update: I have two payments. RS73 and LTSJayce

Toby @ Meridian has been very busy and will get some quotes to me tomorrow for Nightcrawler

Nozilla and GTShortie are you still interested in this group buy?

Looks like three people have pulled out and we may need one more for this round to go ahead.

Got PM. Responded.

Trust R33 - All the oil coolers I have seen come from Meridian so far have been brand new in a sealed box with plastic end caps on the cooler. I would imagine that Meridian dont sell anything reconditioned as they are a race shop (similar to revolution racegear), and not an importer, or car wrecker. But if you can PM me or email me the details I can make an inquiry for you. They are good blokes and i'm sure they would be happy to respond to any questions you may have.

What? Thats not good if it is a reconditioned one! How do you tell? It better be new when mine arrives...

LARGE case of "ditto"!I'm still 99.9% confident that a newie should show for all of us...I'm sure there's been an addressing mixup or similar.I know at my shop we've got 25 people and twice in the last 4 years a part was wrongly addressed and sent.If that was the case,imagine the look of glee the other bloke had when his "reconditioned" cooler showed up looking like brand new!!

Toby has advised that all oil coolers purchased from Meridian are brand new. The one that Trust 33 received had been painted twice in the factory for some reason. In fact the one I got which works fine on my car was exactly the same.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
