  1. Abartma len... Sanki senden saklanıyorduk. Then take it to PM instead of carrying on.
  2. Stock cams...? If yes, I doubt there'd be an issue. They work OK even with larger Poncams.
  3. Knowing you is enough. Plus you advertise the fact unashamedly in your avatar.
  4. Get your hand off it.
  5. Nige should've had a cameo role, ripped off !
  6. Happy birthday mate... May your unkept toenails grow without a curl.
  7. :lol:
  8. Suave, For Nissan to not recommend ethanol blend in their pre 04 cars, one can only assume that, they made changes to production of their vehicles to accept ethanol blend from 04 onwards. That is as straight forward as they come. Also, a heads up on all other fuels. They contain %0 ethanol. Shyster, So, you don't know Nissan's stance to E5. FYI, someone on PF rang Nissan and this is what he had to say about it : "Just got off the phone to nissan, and they confirmed that NO nissan built prior to Jan 04 to use any blended ethanol fuel whether it be 5% or 10%." Re the quoted text of R31Nismoid, I don't want to speak on his behalf, but i am certain you misunderstood it. His analogy with alcohol simply states that you can get just as drunk with beer as you can with spirits. E5 contains half the amount ethanol compared to E10. So, does it mean it is not as harmful, or totally harmless..? Cheers.
  9. Noone said they were the same. Yes, there is a clear distinction and everyone would know it. E5 is %95 gasoline and %5 ethanol. E10 is %90 gasoline and %10 ethanol. Nissan does not recommend the use of E10. Do you know where they stand in relation to E5...?
  10. Here are just a few. When doing a search, do NOT limit it to 30 days (by default they are) and do not use common words like R33. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...=headlight+bulb http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...topic=61601&hl= http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...topic=49342&hl= http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...l=h1+adjustment http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...topic=75597&hl= http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...topic=73132&hl=
  11. If it's an internittent (literally) fault like you've described, I'd say the problem is with the stalk. It may have dodgy connection within or at the base of it.

    Dyno

    How about a search of this section...? Or you can ask the same question there.
  13. Probably the rubber is fused to the metal. Once you remove all the clamps, try it gently with a screwdriver to break up the seal. Once done, it'll just slide off.
  14. Yeah... Peace and all that mate, but hang on a sec, I am having a little hard time of understanding you. First you cream yourself over a 40 awkw gain on a race prepped GTR. Than you dismiss the statement of Nissan Aus, saying it's only to cover their backside. Finally you are betting your bottom dollar that there is no difference in between 03 and 05 Nissans. So, why do you hesitate in using this fuel straight up...? We (nay sayers) are not scared of ethanol per se, just cautious of the fact that Nissan does not recommend it. Why is it so, is the million dollar question. It might be as simple as to meet the emission requirements, or something that has more serious consequences. Leaded race fuels have negative effects to your catalytic converters, O2 sensors, etc, but these effects are known and people (myself included) use it at their own risk. Same thing can not be said of ethanol. I don't care about what Peugeot or Citroen recommend, as i don't drive one.
  15. :lol: :lol: :lol:
  16. Argh... Do you think Nissan Aus. released that statement just for the sake of it..? While the majority of other car manufacturers do not see a problem with using ethanol blend fuels, are the people @ Nissan Aus. only smart ones to state otherwise...? There is a possibility that the engineers @ Nissan would know a little more on this subject tha you and I. There obviously is/are parts that are used in the manufacturing of their vehicles that may react negatively to fuels containing ethanol. At what percentage do they react...? If you know, please enlighten us. On the peanut analogy where a product states : "this product may contain traces of nuts", sounds a little different to "this product DOES contain ethanol" If you were allergic to nuts, would you eat a product containing any...? A product that lists nuts as an ingredient, not one that may contain traces of some.
  17. Without quoting everyone : Yes, some race fuels use ethanol, some race cars run on %100 fuel blend ethanol. Yes, extra 2 ron will allow you to tune the car more aggressively and will yield more power. Yes, %5 blend is next to fark all. However, there is a situation here which is as simple as 2+2. -Shell releases a new fuel containing ethanol. -Nissan Aust releases a press release stating all their pre 04 cars are not recommended to be run on a fuel containing ethanol. So, i personally wouldn't touch this fuel on my Skyline if it was my daily commuter, not till i found out the problems using this fuel -may- cause, in long term. If the car is used in a competitive environment like the race track, than it wouldn't be such an issue. Ethanol blend just adds to other 100 considerations you face on the track. This is my opinion on the subject that was derived in seconds of having the facts.
  18. You are correct, but it still outlines the effects of ethanol blends. Would a %5 blend have less effects or no effects at all...?
  19. Caption time... :lol:
  20. Refer here, for effects of using ethanol blends. Nissan Aust. doesn't recommend the use of this fuel in pre 04 vehicles, but they do not state why. It would be nice if they just outlined the problem areas.
  21. ^^ What he said. ^^ For future reference, do not attempt to fill your gearbox from the gear lever hole. The rubber boot may even have popped out, but still in good condition. There is a larger boot with a square base that goes over it, but that is there to block the road noise out and is not air tight.
  22. Just piss off with your common sense bullshite dude... If you don't have anything valuable to contribute, than don't at all. Here are my other pointers that i learnt the hard way : If it's too dark to see, turn your headlights on. You teach a child to read, and he or her will be able to pass a literacy test. A verbal contract isn't worth the paper it's written on. Man piss in wind, wind piss back. He who sleep with itchy asshole, he will wake with smelly finger. Fool me once, shame on... shame on you. Fool me... you can't get fooled again !!!
  23. All the ratios between R32 and R33 are the same. Even though i've never tried it, i am thinking a second gear launch would cause the car to bog and return average times. I am with Tommo and Drunken here. I think Ben Ellis meant that the 3rd gear wasn't necessary.
