Just fitted the Nismo R-tune in the front and so far so good. No squeal and brakes well.

Yea. Hahaha. I didnt know stock bov can be this audible. Anyway its always good to share something like this since we're all here to learn more about our cars.

Got the rtune in the front and keeping the rear when I'm fitting new rotors. Very nice and no squeal at all.

Some photos from of the airbox (sorry cbf removing the box itself).

Mate do you still have the stock gtr afm? I'm after 1. Cheers.

Yea... it does sound and feel good after that. I wonder why I've never read about this ever on the forum. Maybe thats why everyone said the stock airbox is good for more than 300kw.

To cut long story short, we found theres a small piece of black housing which is attached to the actual airbox that is blocked (from factory). This is connected to a side air intake (probably doesnt matter to a lot of people since 90% of the people I know runs pod filters). This can be undone by depressing 2 clips which is used to secure the bung to the box (I actually saw-ed 2mm off the tip and found out later about the clip). Good news is, I can actually hear the stock bov (I never knew you can, wank factor) and it seems to boost better/more responsive! Hopefully its ok to take that bung again because I still dont understand why they have that from factory....

morning! rise and shine boys!

+1 Thanks for organizing the group buy though. Hopefully we'll all get the lines soon.

WHAT?! You only had it for slightly more than a year. Good luck with the sale. Shouldnt have much problem at that price dude. Good luck.

Congratz!

Thanks for that mate. I hope that'll be fixed this weekend. I have already order the N1 water pump. Gonna keep the car as close to stock as possible. The service duration of 5000km to me is over the top (I cant never understand why because factory doesnt even do them that often). I dont flog the shit outta my car and at the same time, my mechanic told me royal purple is good for more than 10000km if I wish but he'll set the next oil change at 8000km. I've been doing that for the last 2 oil changes and the car drives like new.

After researching it seems like water pump failure isnt that uncommon. The car has never been overheated before but I've filled the reservoir up 3 or 4 times with coolent since my last service (8000km). I can see coolent residue on the car when its up on hoist too but never a patch of green stuff when I park. What I wanna know is how is the system diagram like... what goes where. I might try googling and see if anything comes up. ps: I'm hoping its the water pump because I'm changing that out this weekend for major service!

Quick question, would a leaking water pump keep your radiator coolent level but empty your reservoir?

Thanks. I know Dan stock them at a good price for members but just curious if theres anyone closer thats selling them too. Just missed the autobarn 20% sale last weekend... DAMN!

Anyone knows if theres a cheaper place to get them other than Autobarn which sells them for $100 per 5L bottle?

Thats no good. I kinda regretted not getting the project mu scr pro rotors along with the suspension now with aud going up...

All the joy of home ownership man. Long story short, got 2 main water pipe burst while I'm away from home and clocked 800kL of water in 3weeks. Just to give an idea on consumption, we use around 40kL per quarter.

Just another f**king weekend in shithole. Good new is another 3days more days and I'll be home. And more low+major servicing over the coming weekend! This month is gonna be f**ked too with so many bills coming. $1.5k water bill....

Thats f**ked. I'll keep them then.

Thanks man. I'm clear then. I wonder whats that popping sound when I shift...

Hahaha. On a side note, how much do you guys reckon I can get for my tyres? Bridgestone Potenza RE050A 285/30/18 70% thread. Thinking of getting 265/35/18 instead. Maybe the front wouldnt scrub if I getting smaller tyres.

Another weekend in paradise...
