just went past what looked like an acident at the Britania round about... (the big one at the bottom of kensington road) atleast 2 cop cars with lights going and a fire truck... Their was a blacj r33 and a crv their... codulnt see what had happened or who had damage ect.. but hope it was no one from here and if it was he or she is ok :sick:

AAC Valve, Pete :sick:

I've cleaned many of them on 25's include mine and Steve's and that fixed our idle problems. Never done one on a 26 (as they are a prick to get to) but I'm willing to give it a go if you want?

heck yeah Luke, you name the place & time..........I didn't think they could be cleaned

vaccum leak on the plenum somewhere?

I hope not Ryan, haven't had a chance to give it a spray to check for leaks......either way, I reckon the plenum would have to come off to check the valve.

Where can I get some metal intake & throttle body gaskets cheap?

Would have to be a Sunday as I work Saturday's... probably won't be this weekend or next as I'm helping the missus and her sister move to Kersbrook but after that should be fine :sick: Keep in touch via PM or SMS (0431596795) and I'm sure we can sort out something!

had my first when i was 17 TOUGHEN UP :blink:

You'd need to get a sparco baby seat :ermm:

Good Luck Amanda, i will start thinking and looking in the shed for any thing i can give/sell you cheaply

i have my 1st appointment at the Lyell McEwin Hospital on Friday, they put me in early coz of the situation

LOL my mum already bought a freakin jumpsuit thingo for it, i wasn't to happy about it but not much i could

do to stop her. my brother said he's gonna buy it Ford shoes or slippers

thankies Tangles :D

glad you want to keep it theres already enough innocent blood split in this country, single parents pension ftw (not that i condone bludging but i know your circumstances and you need to survive somehow)

nope he's being an ass and trying to convince me to kill it

when he 1st found out he was alright but then he said he wants nothing to do with it or me

but that's alright i don't really care. his parents are still gonna be involved though which

EDIT* ^^^ stupid link

may have been garaged somewhere all its life or ex show car in nissan museum

Wow only 6000k's! That's only 420 odd kilometers a year! Looks very nice though!
does anyone know what that idle valve is officially called that sits under the plenum and where to get one other than genuine Nissan?

I think mine might be stuff because it idles too high

Grab some carby clean. They almost always gum up and cause idling issues.

If its idling too high there's another valve that may be the cause. IAC valve. The spring can dislodge and cause a constant 1000-1500rpm high idle.

AAC usually results in idle hunt/stall.

IAC is always too high.

Yeah mine idles way too high. I'm guessing the AAC valve is the accessible the one near the fuel filter which can be cleaned whereas the IAC is probably the "cold air by-pass solenoid" which is against the sandwich plate under the centre throttle body which requires a plenum removal and which can't be cleaned (approx $220 new).

Also Cubes, have you got the full specs on your Tighe cams ie. IN & EX opening & closing times etc......I might look into them myself.

    • Yeah 98 for me, and 6.7/100 was my actual usage. On the downside the bloody thing still isn't running properly but at least they hybrid system is happy now. It starts but missfires like a bastard, and isn't throwing any code except "missfire". Thanks scoop. I did notice the AFMs are reading quite different at idle 1.33v and 1.67v so 25% variance (and have both changed and swapped them, the issue stays on the driver's side afm) so I'm looking for exhaust restriction (mouse nest?), compression issue or (hopefully not, no physical damage seen) wiring issue. Throttle might also be an issue but that is harder because you can't swap them side to side and not cheap to fire the parts cannon at.
    • I hope you're right and it somehow justifies it's existence!
    • actually, I've had one of those for a while and it gets more use than you'd think. Yes catching subframes, engines etc coming out under a car on a hoist, but also getting heavy stuff on shelving (to a certain height) without a forklift, holding the fuga's hybrid battery....like many good tools you'll find the jobs for it once you have it
    • Right, so God, it's been nearly 12 months since my last confession....  The main confession is I'm a horrible car modifier (amongst other things).  Obviously the pool was a massive distraction for the entirety of last year but really doesn't excuse me for doing nothing at all on the car for this year.  To be honest this year was a mental break to get over the extreme mental torment and pressure I put myself through putting the pool in!  It really was a slog.  The pool is still not completely finished but it might never be....  The kids love it and the wifey and I love it so mission success! I have spent a grand total of 30 minutes working on the car since when I commenced on the pool.  I just have not had a spare brain cell to be able to focus on it.  The thought of working on it just seems abhorrent to be honest.  My heart is just not into it.  Yet..... What I have done is decide that I'm a clown to not paint ALL of the underside of the car while I'm at it.  Originally I was stopping at the start of the rear subframe to then "get back to it later on once I'm ready".  Let's be honest, later on might never happen so may as well keep diving in!  I'm already balls deep so may as well go a bit deeper! So......  I've just purchased a hydraulic scissor lift table to be able to take the rear subframe out as a whole unit without having to dick around with jack stands rolling around on the ground.  Us 6' 8" blokes don't operate well at ground level! One of these- Anyway, will the investment in an expensive tool that I'll probably only ever use for one job motivate me to crack on?  Only time will tell..... Wish me luck!
    • Yeah the ACL and similar formable heat shielding materials are really nice. But most people do not have the patience or talent to do a good job like that. Almost anything is better than nothing though. Even if you didn't form it closely like that and just had a slab of it slipped in between the manifold and somewhere/thing you wanted to protect, you would gain benefit. There has to be a market opportunity for people like Artec to make formed heatshields to suit their cast manifolds. The fact that they are cast means that they are consistently the exact same dimensions and they could add bosses to the castings like you see on stockers to allow heat shields to be firmly attached yet floating away from the manifold itself.
