Hey everyone,

Unlike the majority of guys and girls here, I am not 100% with all the bits and pieces on the Skyline, and am quite adamant to do any servicing or maintenance myself (oils, sparkies, o2 sensors etc.)

Usually for this type of dilemma I'd just consult a workshop and pay some guy to do it all... but I have read that people tend to rip you because you own a performance machine.

As such, I am seeking anyone who is confident with their Skylines (particularly R34s and RB25DETs) to help with some of the small things - paid for of course.

I'm seeking Northern Beaches people due to proximity to home but if anyone is genuine about it, I don't mind driving :cheers:

Thanks all! I know a lot of you may think its strange or whatever, but seriously - just not too confident with my knowledge of the car ~

Thanks all... at the moment just an oil change, new oil filter and change the sparkies to Iridiums. Possibly do the o2 sensor (Ford EL unit as well).

I have most of the gear ready.... just need a time and place (Sunday is most preferable since I work all 6 other days)

Can you guys just post up how much I'm looking at for something like that from one of you?

Cheers for the support ^^

Can I come and watch? Is there lots of parking at your house?

Im free Sunday too and would love to learn! :P

Dudes...

Beer and ample company or "spectators" are most certainly welcome... I will provide the beer (please put preferences).

As for the space where we're going to do it... Unless you like to work on cars at a 45 degree angle, my house is not good at all.

1 extra case of beer to the person who donates house as well :P

Also, I'm going to go buy the Motor Oil and o2 Sensor this weekend...

Any suggestions on which oil to use (Motul is the favourite on SAU) and where to get it from for cheap? If your answer is going to be Motul, please give me the number as well as there are a few available.

o2 sensor fron NTK or ACA... which one is better? And again, where should I buy it from?

Thanks

Compared to Motul is that better? I have heard several SAU members use that ELF.

Please work out a price for me then ;) Where is Powerplay Imports - obviously I'd need to pick it up from you~

It's great oil as it's 100% Synthetic and very reasonably priced.

Elf claim that it is a better quality oil to the Motul 300V and that it doesn't break down as easily asthe Motul does

We're on 82 Victoria Rd Drummoyne. Come over the Harbour Bridge, then the Anzac Bridge and up Victoria Rd. We're on the right hand side after the Iron Cove Bridge with 2 R34's parked out the front so you wont miss us.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
