haha yes it was meant to be subtle :( (and yes i do know the meaning of the S word) haha

Gee whiz old man - don't act like I'm the pain in the ass that I am - surely you knew that when you sold me a car?

Anyways, question is this: there is a shitload of piping on the GTR; balance pipes between the turbs, etc, etc. Makes working on the car tricky & ppl tell me that it is mainly for emission control - can you tell me what can go & what needs to stay in order for the engine to run properly?

Ahhh , sometimes it's so hard ....

Those little 10/10/10 plates means ypu have 30gms of weights on that wheel.

I did a THOROUGH detail of the inside after that i lost all motorvation, looked for these thingies on wheels but couldnt find them - not that i had a clue what i was looking for in the first place - so i'll do the rest of the cleaning in bits n piece thru out the week - might even take train to work so car stays nice n clean once its done

micko im not sure which hoses u can remove in a GTR but i did a cleanout of my engine bay over the last 6 weeks and its made a big difference to appearance and i can see the oil filter now too! not to mention changing the spark plugs is no longer the 30min job it used to be with all the crap over the cams

Sorry Micko , missed the :( on the end , wasn't meant to sound like you are the pain in the arse.Hehehehe

Balance pipes ??

A lot of the pipes are oil and water lines that run between the terbs and are essential for terb wellbeing.

Not much emission stuff around there ??

Don't know who told you that and YES , they are a pain to work on. That's why I'm getting the engine pulled ( yes , some thing else I pull as well Niz:D ) to do the terb swap .

cheers

    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
