They are missing a slot for the Bonnet Support clip thingo.

I'll be attacking them with an angle grinder (very carefully of course) tonight to remedy the situation.

All of the R33 GTS-T guides are done and bent and all looky nicey, and 10 of the 12 R34 GTT guides are done.

The GTR and other R34 GTT guides will be cut today along with a sample of the Stagea ones.

I'll take some pics at lunch for you.

cheers

They are now made.

I just have to add the extra little slot over the next couple of evenings and I'll start packing them.

WooooWhooo

Hey guys.

Trust, yep I go your pms. Sorry I haven't replied, I'm totally under the pump at work.

I have to apologise for the delay in sending the guide out to you guys, I've been workingg until 7 and 8 pm every night last week.

I plan on taking a few hours on Monday or Tuesday night to get them all in bubble wrap and a steel case and get them out ASAP.

I really am sorry, I've just been crazy busy.

I promise that I'll get them out early next week.

My apologies.

PS. the extra hole required on the R33 guides will look just like the rest of the guide. It wont look crap or anything. I think I can use a turret punch and manipulate it so that the slots are perfect.

Hi Gents.

A turret punch is a machine that punches holes in things.

I have organised with the guys next door to do the punching for a slab of VB this week.

The R33GTR guides are going to be packed tonight and then as soon as the R33 GTS-T guides are punched, they will be packed.

The R34 GTT guides are mostly ready.

I have a bend to puy in them (finihsed tomorrow morning) and I will be able to pack them tomorrow or Wednesday.

People with anodising: I have to wait until R33 GTS-T guides are punched (which will be early this week) so that I can get them to go through all together.

I'm sorry for this further delay. I was up the Gold Coast for work all of last week.

Pete

just let me know when mine are ready and I'll come for the drive over, let you make us coffee and we'll talk about what great blokes we are.......

Does this mean that the GTR guides will be sent out once they are packed?

    • 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.

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