Hey from Canada! Do you guys know what the part number for the windsceen on an a31 is? (if glass has a part number) Glass isn't my specialty. Or, does anyone know what substitutes there is? Like an e90's maxima?

Just go to a auto glass fitter and give them the model number (Nissan A31 Cefiro) they should be able to get one in if they dont already have one. I Aus the place I rang had one in stock ;)

Give it a go, or alternatively go to nissan.

Hey, thanks for the tips. I apreaciate any help. But the Cefiro was not exported to Canada and it is very rare in canada. I imported my car strait from Japan, there is maybe 10-20 in all of Canada. (I'm probably wrong but you get the idea). I go to a nissan dealer and they look at me like, wtf is a cefiro, lol. But I have been looking around at local autoglass shops...Maximas windscreens don't fit, there about 6 inches wider.

Anyone know if a s13 windscreen fits?

No, things like windscreens are car specific if the maxima was locally delivered to your country then they would be able to get you a windscreen cos the maxima is the cefiro, it's the same thing really...

No, accualy the Maxima and the cefiro are not the same until 1992, which would be the A32. Which is too bad cuase, like I said, even though the 90 maxima is very close, it's about 6 inches to wide. You are right, windsceens are very specific. Guess I have to grab my wallet and order one from Japan.

hi,

exhaust question here for Cefiro:

Dump pipe/front pipe, will a aftermarket R32 one fit?

also, cooler kits....will a R32 fit?

thanks

If going for Aftermarket goto Reinhard they make a specific Cefiro front pipe. (www.hipowerracing.com - Contact Ivan).

Any FMIC cooler will fit with enough cutting and shutting of the front bar... if talking about piping, the R32 piping needs to be cut slightly. EG: Pipe which goes across the front of the engine and then joined with a silicon pipe for example.

ALSO>>> Hand brake cable? Part No.? Alternative car for straight fit?...

R32 handbrake goes into laurel so i would assume its the same.

R34 gtt stock sidemount intercooler is pretty much a straight swap into a ceffy. You use the ceffy bracket and cut of the piece for the snorkel off with a hacksaw. You also need to cut a section of of the splash guard cause it sits lower than the stock one.

The ceffy sidemount set up is very similar to the r33 and r34 not r32

is there much difference in cooling efficiency from the r34gtt item over the stock ceffy item?

yea i noticed much greater pulling power when boost kicked in and esp after 5000 revs when i was finding mine was dropping off as a result of the increased boost i had, and there was no lag difference. Plus they are rated for up to 200kw ...so i figured i would try it instead of a big front mount. At the moment i dont think i will be going over the 200kw mark so i thought it was the best option for now. There are acouple of threads in the forced induction section on this.

cheers for that Resin, read both those threads. were pretty interesting. You have me hooked on getting one now! Espec that i'm not after huge power figures either and i also get that same drop in power after a bit of revs. Don't seem too pricey either.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
