^^^ Sorry to here that those rims arent up to your standards

Go easy on the lad. He's probably got the best car with the best display at the show, has a big name in the industry and is the most sought after trend setter ... altho he's a camry driver. :D

What is the world without opinions :)

Damo your car is RBR-034 right? wtf is with the gay rims? Parked near dyno today (saturday) with some chrome on it?

^^^^ hang on, aren't you some teenage high school tool who trolls these forums, yet doesn't even own a Skyline? Not sure you should be knocking anyone's ride mate .... especially Damo's, as it is one of the tidiest R34s around and I think the wheels are PORN!

If you drove a camry, you'd hate everyone who drove a skyline too :D

Going to the show today Andy? A bunch of us are meeting beforehand at 12 ... can PM you the details.

you better check yourself b4 you wreck yourself buddy

Well, i was going to say something, but i guess i dont have to. They were rims for the show, and the drift teks are now back on, so you can breathe a sigh of relief.

well if you came on Sunday, the power quality was excellent, you missed a 503awkw WRX, a 502awkw 33 GTR VSPEC and a 458rwkw R33 GTS-T. Cars like mine only entered to get more points for the team. But seriously, if you wanna see tough cars on the dyno, don't go to autosalon.

:O I'll keep my trap shut on this topic as it seems to get some peoples panties in a knot!!

ps: its funny how gay chrome gets added for...........

Glad to hear you put your old wheels back on!!

Autosalon runs from the tough car-producing beast that is AJD!!

AJD will reign supreme in Adelaide and banish Autosalon to NSW/VIC where it can frollick in the fields of RICE!!

Give me AJD over 6" LCD's in the engine bay, 4WD with scissor doors and WRX's wih 22" spinners anyday!!

*Edit* - P.S. Damo, very nice 34.

    • This is the clearest explanation out of those: Page 77: Turn the crankshaft clockwise two full rotations with the tensioner pulley installation bolt in a loose condition. Insert a wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole to fix the tensioner pulley in place, then tighten the installation bolts. Tightening torque: 43–58 N·m (4.4–5.9 kg·m). The timing belt tension should be at the correct tension. Basically you turn the engine with the tensioner bolt loose, then use the allen key to hold it while you torque it up. And yes after that a good guide is being able to twist it 90o in one of the long free lengths of the belt
    • good choice....I have a set of those and use them all the time including on this job. Plus, no-one wants a damaged nipple
    • Thanks all, went with nismo strengthened belt and all genuine nissan idler and tensioner Question on RB25DET Neo Timing Tensioner: I have a question about the RB25DET Neo timing tensioner. In one of the videos (minute 20 of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17y37BB9xnA and minute 27 of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb99s2E9xUg), the process suggests tightening the tensioner pulley installation bolt to the specified torque initially, and then loosening it slightly to allow the spring to set the correct tension. Is this the correct approach? The R33 workshop manual on page 74 states: Loosen the tension pulley installation nuts. Insert the wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole and turn it clockwise to tighten the installation nut temporarily. The way this is written is confusing. Does this mean: Undo the nut, then reduce the tension by turning clockwise? Snug the nut so it stays in position without applying tension to the belt while removing the timing belt? The manual wording makes it sound like the nut will tighten automatically when you turn the tensioner clockwise , which is unclear to me.   Timing Belt Tension Adjustment Process: After loosening the tensioner nut, you turn the engine two full rotations by hand, which should set the correct tension. Once the tension is set, you tighten the bolt to 43 N·m (4.4 kg·m). Before tightening, you need to insert the Allen key into the hexagonal hole to hold the pulley in place while tightening the bolt. In one of the videos, it’s mentioned that you should twist the belt side to side, or turn it slightly to check if the tension is correct. The belt should turn halfway, indicating the right tension. However, I know that twisting or turning the belt is not a good idea. What are your thoughts on this? Finally, how can I ensure the belt isn’t overtightened? I’ve seen many cases where people have overtightened the timing belt.   Manual Excerpts: Page 74: Loosen the tension pulley installation nuts. Insert the wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole and turn it clockwise to tighten the installation nut temporarily. Remove the timing belt from each pulley. Page 77: Turn the crankshaft clockwise two full rotations with the tensioner pulley installation bolt in a loose condition. Insert a wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole to fix the tensioner pulley in place, then tighten the installation bolts. Tightening torque: 43–58 N·m (4.4–5.9 kg·m). The timing belt tension should be at the correct tension.
    • Takes a few minutes to malke one. Wood, or steel, or a wrap strap with some strategically placed solids to provide teh drive onto the ribs.
    • I would strongly suggest using the correct tool. They are not expensive and make the job much easier and don't damage the lock ring. Google "fuel tank lock ring removal tool" to see what I'm talking about.
