Edit: Hang on a minute isn't your mrs name Melissa?

And it just so happens a "Melissa" served you...2+2=BS

Mates rates / Trade prices etc don't count - UNLESS you are prepared to get the item for the rest of us at the same cost!

Otherwise you can't go around saying they cost $12, hopefully you understand that otherwise I can feel a keystroke-warrior-session coming on :confused:

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

LOL, you actually went to the trouble of scanning a receipt :D

It must be cheaper for Z200 because the Z202 - which is the one I have is MUCH larger and nobody has it for less than $20 - NOBODY!

still LOL :)

PS i had the receipt laying around on my table so i took a photo of it. The Z202 is just bigger but doesent really do anything different!!

LOL, only if she is HOT!

ok - well it was worth a try :cheers:

Maybe I will grab a z200 - problem is their usually out of stock at A'barn, Eastcoast & Kmart!

The reason I used a Bigger fuel filter is that I have heard people say to put in th biggest filter you can fit as this will either A. Last Longer or B. Flow Better or C. Both!

End off-topic :)

There are special socket bits that are made for them. I got one in my socket set. When you say buy one that fits a vl, i take it you talking about socket bits, coz it was my impression that all spark plugs are the same size. So as long as you have a socket bit that will fit a spark plug then you should be right to go. Did that help any????????????

oi big bhoy hook us up with the location of your fuchs dealer...

isn't there a fuchs employee on this forum? can he hook me up :)

I need to change oil, oil filter, fuel filter and sparkies.

Also I was told that Skylines came stock with 0.8mm gap sparks. I know my HKS Idium ones were anyways. I've since gone to copper which I have a sneaking suspicion are 1mm because they keep fouling.

don't you have a GTS with a 2.0L NA?

io don't think gap is going to be an issue if that is the case...

yeah kinda....i was talkin about those long yellow sparkie wrench things that you buy from autobahn with the funny T at the end that already has a socket on it. but it looks like i can use an ordinary wrench right?? just have to make sure the socket fits the hole yeah??

You can either get one of those yellow things, or just get a socket that fits on a normal wrench thing. They look like normal sockets but are a bit longer and have a rubber insert for gripping the spark plug.

Oh and they come in different sizes, skylines use 16mm plugs so get one that is 16mm or else its a pain in the arse putting the car back together to drive to the shops to get the right one.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!

      You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
