I think Japan has a higher tax for older cars (paid with each rego) Someone who knows more about that can possibly explain??. God help us if Rudd wants to bring that one in.

I run an RB26 pump on my RB30DET, have not heard of the shattering problem on the 26 pump, although I have read many reports of that problem with the N1 pumps. Running a crank collar is a good idea as the RB30 crank does not engage the oil pump gear the full width. Heres a few pictures I took whilst comparing my RB26 pump against the stock RB30E Pump: RB30E RB26 Notice the RB26 pump gear is about 3 times the width of the RB30

If the above doesnt work, remove them still attached to the AFM then unscrew the filter +1 for ratchet rings, always good for these applications

Not worth it just for looks, or bragging rights. I have one just because I did the 3.0L conversion, not sure if it improved throttle response because of the other changes I did. If your thinking about getting a china manifold I'd think twice there too considering the gamble on quality and the lack of parts they supply with it (not to mention its fake)

are you using the R32 crank pulley

Yup, its not a handout, a gift or anything else they try to brand it with. It's a Loan and we're going to have to pay it back for years now.

Inlet of turbo. Running it to the plenum will pressurise the cam cover when you make boost pressure, not to mention create a boost leak...

Have been greatly anticipating this one... Have to wait for it to come out here though, must not be releasing it at the same time nation wide I have to wait until the 19th

I first tried it 6 or 7 years ago but got fed up with having to go into command line prompt to do anything, and then not knowing what to do when things went wrong. If I had the patience to learn more about it theres no doubt it would be very powerful compared to Windows. If the new versions are more user friendly I might consider trying it again. I dont play Games so that isnt an issue.

You could try doing it by taking the cam covers off and getting some barbs welded on at the lowest point at the back. Then just run a couple of elbows and some line back down to the sump.

Will dl and watch tonight. Aren't European women generally hot on average? I know they're meant to out number males in Russia as a result of years of war reducing the population of men over there. Can't imagine the show being much worse than the local one.

+2 for lower bracket... Then I used some of the supplied velcro too.

Thats very similar to mine. Black Onyx is what I got from memory.

Wow, sounds like I probably did then. I used to Live next door to that powder coater where I got them done. Thats about 2 years ago now... maybe he cut me a deal? I definately wasnt expensive in my case.

I didnt pay anything close to that... Was more like $100 for the whole set including clear coat. I took it to a commercial powder coater not a rim specialist though. Photo here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...t&p=4428017

Are they GT2's? I got mine powdercoated and bought some new Nismo stickers. Came up very well. Easy but time consuming to disassemble.

I dont remember the auto bush being all that hard to remove

Firstly as I said in previous posts, I'm in NSW (not SA) All I did was: Engineers report, Blue Slip, Change of details form (brown form for new engine number), Then gave them to the rta and they printed out my new sticker and rego form with the number.

Yep, mines 316 too. HKS etc use 409

304 Is stainless... Its a number which refers to its metallurgical composition. 304 is your general purpose Austenitic stuff you see everywhere for food grade places followed by 316 which is a bit better. The best grade to use for Exhaust is 409, a Ferritic stainless with no nickel content, instead it is stabilised using titanium. I think the problem with the chinese stuff is that although they may say its 304, its either full of impurities or its composition is only loosely based on the proper ratio of Carbon, Chromium and Nickel to make it. Personally I'd suggest using Mild steel for all the flanges or machined surfaces if you're going to use 304 to avoid warping. Sorry to rant, I use stainless for everything where I work, so thought it should be cleared up.

LOL are people excited about the sort of attention F&F will bring to the Skyline/GTR?? I'm not...

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Sy...en-t253486.html Few contact details in there from memory. Pretty sure someone said they also have a mob number too...

Yeah mine had that too, remove it and fit the spigot bearing...

I saw one of those on Friday mounted next to the chassis rail on an F100...

Velcro'd on the dash behind the wiper stork. Have velcro up on the inside of the panel above your legs so it can be placed there out of sight for any reason.
