I think i'll take you and Dave up on the offer to strip the car one weekend, i'll even drag the BBQ out. :)

Just need to work something out with Mr Ferguson who also wants the whole wreck. I'm thinking we all just rock up on the day, take what you want and everyone's happy.

Slowly replying to the PM's.

No dramas.. all organised.. :)

Although the Teins wont fit, well they can work but Il pass... there the 32GTR ones so they have a slight bend in them.... We will pull it all out and then you can sell them!!

And on a more serious note buddy I am glad you are ok, stageas are replaceable, lives aren't..here comes the M35 keep stagen on!

Yeah as someone else has said, cars are replaceable and people are not, at least it puts a positive spin on the situation it could have been much worse and count your self lucky. Also the the fact the ass in the stagea is so big I am sure it has great crumple zones :thumbsup: .

If your offsets on the two rims which survived are then same I would be keen on taking them. Sorry to have to ask and try and benefit on your loss.

Thanks

Offset on the rims is +30 and they're 17's, can't remember what width they are i'll check it shortly.

Thanks guys. :D

      Shifting questions

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone

      Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.

      I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.

      I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?

      I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
