Hey guys, I know this has been covered before.. but it seems all the old threads have been deleted.

I need a couple of spare parts for my steering (ie. rackend), and also am looking for some camber kits for each end..

I know theres a couple of good places in Mitchell, but can't remember the names or where they are.

Suggestions.. :)

Cheers

ops yeap sorry typo

Hey dude

just wanted to know how you went with your misfire???

I order some splitfires today got my car booked in at autotech on friday to try and get some more boost out of it I have your same prob with the little misfire between 4500 and 5500 hoping the split fires will fix it

mine only happens at light throttle at that point so the splitfires didnt help but the car does feel better all the way through the rev range (pulls better) i think.

Shit hey nah mine does it under full load with everything I've looked into it would suggest stuffed coils so hopefully the split fires will work

My mate had a similar problem and jon at trojan just cat the the coilpack cover off (bar the back end holding the ignitor) allowing the coilpacks to stay cool. 10min job, never had a problem since. But you prolly dont wanna know that now youve spent 600+ on splitfires :D hehehe

I've got my cover off, i was having missfire a while ago, but i think it was also related to an overboost problem. i haven't put the cover back on yet but i haven't had a problem since. i didn't know about it keeping the coils too hot, but makes sense

ok i have had the cover off ages now, i know its a common fault to over heat coil packs when your cars not so standard, the new cover has been sprayed and big holes cut into it. As for slither it will be your packes causing you probs, mine is the tune from the remapped ecu the fuel is prob not high enough ron, any ways back on topic good luck with search for parts. I may beable to sort some myself if you get stuck

    • OK, Step 3, if you need to remove the valve body, either to replace it, the TCM, or to do a more complete drain.  First, you need to disconnect the TCM input wires, they are about half way up the transmission on the drivers side. One plug and the wires are out of the way, but there is also a spring clip that stops the socket from sliding back into the transmission. On my car the spring clip was easy to get, but the socket was really stuck in the o-ring of the transmission housing and took some.....persuasion. You can see both the plug to remove (first) and the spring clip (second) in this pic Incidentally, right next to the plug, you can see where the casting has allowance for a dispstick/filler which Nissan decided not to provide. there is a cap held on with a 6mm head bolt that you can remove to overfill it (AMS recommend a 1.5l overfill). Final step before the big mess, remove the speed sensor that is clipped to the valve body at the rear of the box.  Then removal of the Valve Body. For this the USDM Q50 workshop manual has a critical diagram: There are a billion bolts visible. Almost all of them do not need to be removed, just the 14 shown on the diagram. Even so, I both removed one extra, and didn't check which length bolt came from which location (more on that later....). Again it is worth undoing the 4 corners first, but leaving them a couple of turns in to hold the unit up....gravity is not your friend here and trans oil will be going everywhere. Once the corners are loose but still in remove all the other 10 bolts, then hold the valve body up with 1 hand while removing the final 4. Then, everything just comes free easily, or like in my case you start swearing because that plug is stuck in the casing. Done, the valve body and TCM are out
    • OK, so if you are either going for the bigger fluid change or are changing the valve body which includes the Transmission Control Module (TCM), first you should have both a new gasket 31397-1XJ0A and a torque wrench that can work down to 8Nm (very low, probably a 1/4 drive one). You can probably get by without either, but I really didn't want to pull it all apart together due to a leak. First, you now need that big oil pan. The transmission pan is 450 long x 350 wide, and it will probably leak on all sides, so get ready for a mess. There are 24x 6mm headed bolts holding the pan on. I undid the 2 rear corners, then screwed those bolts back in a couple of turns to let the pan go low at that end, then removed all the middle bolts on each side. Then, undo the front corner bolts slowly while holding the pan up, and 80% of the fluid will head out the rear. From there, remove the remaining bolts and the pan is off. You can see it is still dripping oil absolutely everywhere...it dripped all night.... I got another couple of litres when I removed the pan, and then another few when I removed the valve body - all up another 4l on top of the 3 already dropped in step 1.
    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
