Yep pull it all off.

There are 14 or 15mm nuts under the dome cap thingos at the base of the arms.

Pop them off. Undo nut. Wiggle jiggle the arms. Spring makes it tricky. Remove, sand, paint, rejoice. :)

Doh :(

It's ok, had some guy in a wrx wagon behind me. Pulled over at that truck stop and we had a chat for 10 minutes. Beautiful car :)

Was good run though, heaps of traffic out today

I've got both. :D

and yes I've spent many a time searching thru rocks, sticks, leaves and dirt trying to find that screw that parted ways from my RC and ruined my fun. :/

Sir Son of Rajab Van Von Vader'ham. :laugh: Pricless.

it wasn't screws that I hated with using the truck offroad, I did loose heaps tho, it was the flat out sideways into a tree stump that got me! wasn't noticed when I had a look, using it without the body or bull bar, ripped the whole left hand front wheel and suspension off, then lost the dog bone for the 4wd.. cost like 400 in parts, then I put it all back together, in 2wd with a huge motor it was so fun! it lifted the front wheels up and flogged my mates vl ( in hume ) before he crashed into a tree in his street :D haha thats vl drivers for you :) then having it flat out for a long time running to lean just completely rooted the engine :( and went to get an engine the other day and they dint sell ones with a rotary carbie :( so its in now in a box in the garage :(

Yuh huh, cool story. :wacko:

So what are you all up to in your final minutes of 2013?

I have a belly full of Aldi Beer. Might just crack me a bago chippies. :D

haha, having some mountain dew, yea im that kind of guy ;) nah going for a drive down to banks to pick the sister up from a party, ahah

starting the year driving the skyline - going to be a good year :D

Looking for some info on how to install a plenum on an RB26DETT. I have found heaps of info for the RB25's but nothing for the GTR's.

Currently searching YouTube as well.

I have Richard's old polished plenum sitting here which I have had for ages so thinking I might give it a go depending on how involved it is.

Morning.... i see whos up early too. :happy:

Mine was up at 5:45.

Anyway, id look at how long all hoses and things are and if they will reach the new location.

Also the ends of them have to fit the fittings on the plenum.

Throttle cable too. TPS would need a wiring extension. And intercooler pipe with a bov and return line for that.

Hang on... RB26 has throttle bodies.. so.. um... dunno. Id have to look.

New gaskets would be a good idea

Im just assuming its forward facing... is it?

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • 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.
    • 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!
