Hey Gregg, Welcome to SAU .Nice car, like the tints. The 250 I hear is a real neat engine about 160kw ?? and gets brilliant mileage.

Posted in 'the gallery', but didn't receive any responses, so guessed that i had posted in the wrong thread... Just picked up a V36 370 a couple of weeks ago. Finally decided to replace my 4door R32

Hi str8g

had my infiniti for around 2 months now and love the ride.

im looking at getting slightly bigger rims and rubber, have you any idea what these cars are capable of taking as when i go to the tyre shops they dont seem to have a clue and sre guessing, Also looking at lowering, any suggestions thanks.

stay away from tyreshops that dont have a clue. Any decent shop should be able to tell by the stock wheels and make a pretty good guess on how much bigger u can go.

personally i think 19" suit this car the best...but whether this is legal is somewhat a grey area. 9.5 front and 10.5 rears in around the +15 offset should fill the guards nicely

with sedans i have nfc

last car I was driving was an Ford AUII - not anymore - 2003 v35, 25000km - Here in SA from sinergymotorsports

25000km? make sure you go get it checked by a mechanic. It might have a few more K's then 25000.

Post some pics when you can :P

Hey guys,

Just picked up my 350 GT-8 today! Absolutely loving it! :P

Gunmetal Grey

50,000 kms

Half leather half suede

Looks the part, but the power was what I really wanted.

Didn't want to pick up a cop magnet.

Haha!

Anyway, didn't have time to take any snaps but will post soon. :D

Cheers,

Tony

      Rb25det Belts Change

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Everything I found online said never use it because it'll dramatically reduce belt lifespan.  No, but I have seen excessive v-belt tension cause the audible bearing noise from excessive radial load in things like alternators. So don't overdo it. Ideally you set it to manufacturer spec using a proper belt tension guage. I tried the "clicker" type gauges but those cheap things are trash. They read way too low even when you're careful.

      This is kind of where I've ended up for the most part. It's easier for me, easier for shops that don't have to deal with my weird criteria/picky standards, etc.

      Will do. Suprised if it's not the starter motor considering it's 30 years old. Will get a volt meter though. Battery is close to new.   Cheers for your help, always appreciated.

      Rb25det Belts Change

      This almost never happens these days. No. Clean your battery terminals and make sure they are tight. Use sandpaper on a dowel if you have to, to get oxidation off the inside of the terminals, particularly on the -ve. Check the earth cable from battery post to chassis ground and engine ground. Make sure the contact surfaces are clean - including the threads on the bolts that anchor them - because that's where a lot of the contact occurs. Wire wheel on a drill is a good thing for this. Make sure the crimps on those cables are all sound. Assuming none of that causes an improvement: Check the battery voltage after it has been resting for a while. If it's at the lower end of the range, put it on charge for a while, then see if it will crank better.

      Rb25det Belts Change

      I just checked my belt, it wasn't super loose but I could bend it past 90 degrees a small amount so I tightened it up and for the first time ever my car didn't crank first time, had to crank it again lol. Don't know if that was because I tightened the belt or if it's my starter motor going out (been having slow starts for some time). Coulda also been when I was recording I didn't crank the key properly and it didn't save the recording lol.   Is that a thing if you overtighten a belt it struggles to start?
