Craig, installing rotors and pads are a peice of piss, if a first year mechanic can't do it I think he needs to re-evaluate his chosen profession cos he's obviously f**king useless...

^^^ Totally agree. Its a job a 1st year apprentice should be able to do. Sorry to hear a lacky f**ked ya car. I've had lackys f**k my bikes working on them before. :(

I should be doing my caliper conversion tomorrow. After spending some of today painting the Dolphin body kit ...

... speaking of which, its dark now, but I'll take pics tomorrow. The Dolphin kit now colour matches the Stag. Going out tonight to show her off :banana:

just a quick tip for all

DO NOT GET A 1ST YEAR APPRENTICE MECH TO ATTEMPT TO INSTALL YOUR NEW ROTORS AND PADS!

couldnt get the new pads over the new rotor, in attempting to open the calliper to fit over the rotor with new pads

he broke the fluid line.... :banana:

so i learnt my lesson, im just gonna pay a proffesional.

should have done that in the first place :(

he had every thing but a g clamp, to open the calliper.....

im just gonna send it to abs, let them deal with it.......

hopefully they can find another line for it......... :banana:

craig craig craig, i told you i'd help you do them. Ive done countless amounts of them.... oh well...live and learn.

    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
    • yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.
    • I don't have a printer, but could at least attempt to make a printable model.
