RB for ever! ;)

i know where you live!

well, 180s are cool, BUT... an rb engine sounds 10x better than a sr! My eventual plan is to get a s15 or a 180sx with s15 front and drop in a rb26/25 ;)

and in regards to the original question... i think a section for other nissas (maybe call it SR Corner) would be good. So all s13/s14/s15/gtir/180sx ppl can use that area.

or we could just call the club, Sklyine, Silvia, Pulsar and 180sx austraila, but that would be gay.

Truthfully.

These forums are so succesful compared other ones, alot of people actually know who's who and theres plenty of info to be had.

I was kind of serious about a 180SX thread, or maybe a subject heading "Other Nissans".

The forums have come along wat...I remember posts on these very forums saying you could only be a posting member if you can actually prove you own a Skyline...LOL!

Yeah...there was a thread popping around with a debate on if only people with Skylines would be allow to join and post....

I think Georgie might of been involved as such....maybe I'm dreaming.

Without meaning to bring up the past & say I told you so,

"I told you so".

While SkylinesAustralia is a very strong name, we should be actively trying to widen our membership to other nissans and in fact any japanese performance car - and our forums should support this.

If we say "skylines only", we're as bad as the HSV owners club (who wouldn't let a skyline come along to one of their days.)

We are all enthusiast of cars -> more specifically japanese cars -> Nissans -> skylines. Why would we alienate potential members? Lets get as many ppl involved in our events as possible so that the club remains strong long after all R32s move to museums. Other clubs have existed for decades, eg hotrod clubs, why can't SAU?

/end membership rant, resume normal sarcasm

I typed that slowly so that the Sr20 owners could read it.

While you where typing slowly, a quick little SR20 caught you running wide, performed a perfectly timed switch back, and exited well in front...

Pffttt long lazy and fat RB's....hehehe

Good points thou ;)

Ha! Not likely! Very easy to cover the inside 'line with a car this wide.

    • 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. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
