oi guys, im really keen on joining but the 16th is my 1st exam and the week before i usually crammed for it too... so i dont think i can make it... + i dont have 500 dolars yet at least in this following week... heheh

however u guys said that we cant finish 10 cars in a day rite? why dont we held another session in mid august, after my hols, over in my house, i mean my house is not big but it can fit 4 cars in total in garage + driveway,we need some working lights though... and there and empty lawn just in front my house, so u can use the drive way and curbs to fit another 3 and proley 2 on the side of the streets... my place is parents free but have no barbeque and esky, but we can use my fridge.... but ive never serviced my car before, so im definately need a hand and btw, no tools either..

I found another place to get all the service parts i listed b4, including the other belts... so as a result i will be buying next friday now... also lemme know on that...

That'd be better, its all undercover as well in case it rains. Does it have a BBQ? If not I can bring mine. Mite not fit in the 33, but will in my Dad's Sante Fe with my tool box. You don't need any hoists, I dont have any at my house and that was fine! Just get some jacks and axle stands, should be all good.

Hey Guy, Just wondering how you went with your service? I'm attempting it on my 34 also and I have found leaky cam seals. Problem is I need to get the VVT actuator off. Do you know if the nut is reverse thread or not?

There is a notch on the Allen key head which sometimes means reverse thread, either way it's bloody tight. Like to know how you went?

Cheers

Mark

    • The R32 suffers from an instrument binnacle that is uncomfortably close to the design of a VN Commodore's. But beyond that, the layout of the rest of everything, and the materials (ie the vinyl coverings on dash, armrest, etc) are acceptable, and the patterns on the fabrics are not as blergh as those in the R33. And R33 seats are....quite unattractive. I know it's only small details there, but I reckon the R33 got worse than the 32. But the big blergh is the overall shape of the dash on the R33. It's just has that whole Maxima/Pulsar sort of look to it. Nothing special at all. Generic Nissan sedan. Whereas, at least the R32 dash/binnacle was different. Less a wide expanse of boringly curved plastic. More a "cockpit" sort of look, even if nowhere near to the degree that the A90 Supras got. R34 seats look good on their own, until you realise that they are indistinguishable from the shape and fabric on 70 other Japanese cars. And the foam bolsters on them suffer even worse than the earlier cars. Other than that I don't really have an opinion the rest of the R34 interior. I took the bits of the R34 I wanted (brakes and engine) and added them to the best external appearance Skyline in the modern era (the 32). So nyerr!
    • Can I be your first customer? I would like hard lines done for the fuel system, 8AN up and 8AN back and the underside wire wheeled and coated (brush or sprayed) with that black tar shit.
    • Speak for yourself, I love the R33 interior. 32 is blergh. I like the 34 interior too. Then you start getting much newer in most cars and they all turn back to blergh. 馃槢
    • 500-600hp into a RB is already 'sinking endless amounts of money' into an engine. Especially a 30 year old engine. Unfortunately this is the RB Game. Considering stock power (or at least stock components) will do ~360whp on 98 by simply turning up the boost on the stock gear on a RB26, that would be where I'd say the cutoff point for "sinking endless amounts of money into the engine" Cause to even do this reliably you'd probably need to replace all the bits anyway cause they're old, starting your sinking journey anyway. I reckon the least painful way is rebuilding the engine to make 50hp over stock lol. The 'plan your ownership around a rebuild' was a common saying 15 years ago.
