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:

+1. mind you i am only 20.

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

haha i was wondering what you would say

yeap guess so lol

i'm not exactly ready for it believe me but yeah, it could be fun and stuff, i'll find out eventually.

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

i'm ok with coz i don't see why they should miss out just coz he is

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.

    • In the US the EPA has been going after shops that sold aftermarket ECU tuning software that allowed you to disable CELs for things like EGR, DPF, SCR, or TWC failure. They also went after shops for selling emissions delete equipment. Their logic is that all cars built for street use have this emissions equipment and you cannot do an after the fact conversion to an off-road vehicle not intended for street use. Cobb, Hondata, and similar companies have basically all revised their tuning software such that going forward you cannot suppress DTCs for emissions-critical systems, nor can you toggle systems on and off in the tune like EGR. You also cannot adjust OBD emissions monitoring logic. You can still tune these cars. But you have to do things the hard way, basically. For example Subaru FA20DITs used to delete the TGV system to get spare analog IO for a flex fuel sensor. EGR also has to be dramatically pared back because without the TGVs the stock EGR map causes bad misfires. Now instead they have to implement the flex fuel system as a CAN bus sensor instead. IMO, this is heavy-handed but the EPA in the US gave so much leeway for so long and the aftermarket relentlessly abused that leeway to the point that they could actually see the effects of all these emissions-deleted work trucks on their air quality monitoring for cities that haven't met Clean Air Act standards. It's one thing to have a few people deleting emissions on their weekend car that spends 9 months out of the year on jack stands. It's another thing entirely for entire fleets of tradies driving around 8 hours a day on deleted diesels that emit 1000x the emissions per mile of a compliant vehicle.
    • Hmmm. that's a tough one. There's a lot of history bundled up in that lot. Perhaps instead we can create a new pinned thread, called "Legacy Pinned Threads" and provide links to the these ones that will be unpinned in there. And maybe put the names of the pinned threads that are linked inside in the tags so they can seen from the outside? Or something like? I mean, it's half a step back towards having a more complicated forum structure, without actually having it. But there's a reason that heirarchical architectures exist. They are logical, and if executed properly, make it easy to find something without having any upfront knowledge of where it would be , and without using a search function.
    • Can we unpin a bunch of dead / irrelevant threads from: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/forum/8-engines-forced-induction/ New players at home will scroll and think this forum is dead.
    • It's all about selling non-compliant emmisions stuff, and things like tuning stuff that makes your car have more emmisions, a very small percentage of modifications and tuning go into race cars, the vast majority of tuning and mods, like catless exhausts, or non-compliant cats, go into street cars with registration  Like a gun shop can only sell to someone with a gun licence, if they don't, they are fined and even jailed, and whilst a gun is totally different to a tune, or a catless exhaust, they are still illegal for a street car As for customers, it easy, they send a letter and tell them to show up for an inspection, like if someone says your car is to loud now, if they don't show up for the test, they can cancel rego, just like not paying a traffic fine This has been happening for years overseas in other countries  I'm in no way happy about it, but, I think there is definitely writing on the wall for modern cars with emissions standards, which will effect tuning shops, parts suppliers and end users And like other countries around the world, it is the government's that makes the rules and regulations for street cars with rego What would happen to a tuner or workshop if they were investigated about turning off stuff in a ECU IRT emmisions stuff like engine check lights for cats, or removing cats, or putting in a lower cell cat, this is apparently all illegal IAW modifications to registered cars, or, retuning the car so that with even stock emmision stuff still installed, but due to the tuning, or parts, like bigger cam shafts, it will now not pass the emmisions test Yes, I am going into a rabbit hole, but going off what other countries are doing IRT everything related to emmisions........cars, trucks, manufacturing, mining, modified vehicles are a easy target Meh, time will tell how it goes either way
