Actually. I saw the two Matrix films the other weekend and I must say I was almost going to ask for a refund because I could hardly see the picture. The brightness was way to low! Might be an idea to park reasonably close.

So did we... that's why we always park around about 4 rows from the screen.

Btw, for those who don't know... I will be in my white R33 sedan 4 door... you can't miss it!

Here is a hint... apply some yellow boxed "Rain-x" windscreen polish... incase it rains so you minimise the use of your wipers... amazing stuff so get some... they are available from any motor accessory stores for around 8-9 bux.

Cheers and see ya there!

Sorry guys I wont be able to go on Friday, but I did see the movie on Wednesday night. Enjoyed it, but it wont win any awards for its script (but who cares)

There is a nice change to the plot in this one. If you didnt see the first movie the plot went:

fast cars, racing, fast cars Vin Diesel, fast cars racing, Vin Diesel.

This movie has a very differnen plot:

fast cars, racing, fast cars girls, fast cars racing, girls.

Still dont understand why they would play with Mitsubishi's when they started off with a hot R34? but then I didnt understand why they used Civics in the first movie.

Enjoy.

What... hail... sheit! Oh well... who cares... we will go and watch it again the next weekend! :bahaha:

Da Black R32 and Red TT 300zx will be coming. Will cruise around there about 6.30. If it's shit weather, we were thinking of going to the cinema..?? it will be warm there anyway..mayb after that, go for a cruise..

remember, this is the unbeaten 300zx goin?!!! come on guys..

Power hasn't been checked out! All i know is that it has been chipped, and has HKS cold air induction..i doubt the phat bodykit and 17's have anything 2 do with the power! ha.

It's actually for sale, so it won't be around for much longer in our hands!

It's in the trading post. If you want pics, tell me your e-mail..

Crazy for stock internals - would certainly make a few people sit up and take notice I reckon - says alot for using head gaskets to decompress. Glad I will be doing this when the new turbo is on.

I didnt put my car up - as since the cold wheather has set in she tends to ping a bit on load at around 4.5k, so I was scared:)

    • Also, the cause of fuel spills and smells from the top of the tank is almost always the rubber hoses that are up there, not the tank seal.
    • 1. No, as you say you can remove the connectors and fuel lines. Before you do make sure you remove fuel pump fuse and crank the starter a few times to release pressure, and also loosen the fuel cap (just in case the tank is slightly pressurised) as it will pump out the lines otherwise 2. Not necessary but you are right, if it is the factory pump it is at risk of failing after 25 years....Changing it is not hard but potentially not trivial as you have to make sure you have the right pickup/sock for the pump to suit the tank, need to make wiring connections (crimped butt connectors would be fine) and have to mount/adapt the new pump in the right place in the cradle. Not impossible but don't start the job if you aren't confident. Also, the plastic nut that holds that seal in place can be really hard to remove. If you don't have a fuel nut removal tool it generally requires a big screwdriver or similar to bash the ring around a few times before you can get it by hand. Also the fuel lines can be very sticky on the tank lid fittings, hose removal pliers can help or if not twist the hose on the fitting (eg with linesperson's pliers) to break the seal before you try and remove it. Finally, mark the feed and return hoses so you don't put them on backwards and seal them with an m8 bolt to stop crap getting into the lines while working. Add a little grease in the threads of the plastic lid when you go to do it back up as a gift to your future self, and make sure you put it on evenly/not cross threaded.  Having said all that, most likely the lid just needs to be either tightened or removed and put back on without being cross threaded...the seal itself is usually pretty good.
    • Another weekend and another project I have questions about.... I bought a fuel tank sender O ring to install on the car because I'm quite sus on what I've got now.  1. No "whooosh" sound when opening fuel cap 2. If I fill up full tank, there will be a small leak under the car and it comes from the top of the fuel tank, dripping along the side. Stops after a short while 3. Hot days = 50/50 chance to get high as a kite inside the cabin if the car was in the sun for too long This is what I bought: https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/1734279900 My plan was to just replace the O ring but I've got some questions: 1. Does the whole fuel pump assembly need to come out for me to replace the O ring?         Or, could I unplug all the connectors and fuel lines at the top, take off the twisty part (17343) and put in the O ring from the top?  2. Is it a very common thing for everyone to just change the pump whenever doing this?        I see the Walbro 255 gets thrown in a lot but I've got no issues with my pump so far. When I did the tune, I asked the guy to check my fuel pressure and he said there were no issues too. But is it just a good idea to change to the 255 anyway as the old unit may have been in there for so long? The 255 seems to be a direct fit for GTT (I got no soldering iron)  
    • Normal speedtek issues, bin it and go cdoo# or 8hp. So many issues with these gearsets, a mate went through 3 rebuilds and multiple parts with heat, bearing and vibration issues.  
    • I wouldn't go near them, they are rubber seals for a reason. Just chuck new cam cover seals, half moons and the spacers for the screws every decade or two. I add a really thin layer of silicone too and it seems to hold together OK
