Morning mangs,

S2 and that would be grand

Bummer, that means I need to figure out what wire it is :(

Shouldn't be too hard though.

bludging net access off mcd wifi.

Good form

martin, should have a number for you today. hoping to get the 31 on a hoist today at some point as well.

Thanks!

Another glorious morning

Sh*t weather is sh*t.

Boz, you getting the 34 back this week?

+1

Sorry guys. Me having so much free(ish) time is what's causing all this weather, obviously. I mean all the bad weather started about an hour after i finished the work i was doing on the holidays.

This day just won't end.....

Tempted to schedule in a phantom meeting for the afternoon and knock off early.

Does anybody know where I can call for some light guard flaring?

Not game to do it myself. My rolling job was a bit agricultural so not game to do much else.

Sexy Dave rolls guards for beer.

If the flare you need is just pulling it out with the guard roller then he can probably do that for you too. How effective it is will depend on a number of factors though. If you've already munted the guards with a dodgy rolling job it won't help.

Spoke to smash repair guys late last week and I should be picking her up late tomorrow or early Thursday :)

Here's hoping that holds true! And also hoping they kept at least two degrees of camber on the wheels as I requested. Want it closer to three but that may be a bit of overkill.

Hey Guys.

Here's hoping you get your car before the weekend Boz.

As for guard rolling, take a look at what I've been doing. Fitting the Telstar around some 18 x 9.5 +25's. I cut the outer skins and have pulled them from the inners. The door sills needs a major tidy up, but have got a set of hammers and dollies. Will be welding up the rest this weekend. I'll be doing the same with the door skins. The skins have been pulled by about 1".

Still to work on the door and to tidy up the front guard. The pic of the pulled rear guard makes it look like there is big dent in the flare bit, but it's acutally black paint.

seems weather has something to do with it.

spent most of today under a mack truck and under a 4wd and under a white 2 door thing.(31)

there is a about half a page of changes I need to make to it for it to be 110% legal. until such time it will have instant rego whilst I move it around place to place.

seems this car is similar to the 32. the chassis rails are just as easy to bend. found where it had been jacked wrong and thats one of the points on the RWC paper. thats easily fixed - panel guy can sort it.

joys of old cars :)

Love the rims Scott.

I don't even remotely have the right tools to attempt something like that.

I might give the guy from precision rolling a call and see what he says.

Otherwise may wait a while and go see camerons body works

Why must people camp in the right hand lane doing ten ks under the limit, next to the only other car on the road?

shit blokes.

I loved driving in Europe. The instant someone did that they would have an angry Italian man in a fiat punto two inches from their back bumper, using the horn to morse code M.O.V.E O.V.E.R F.U.C.K.E.R whilst texting his cousin to buy more kappa track suits to wear with his socks and sandals.

looks like raining most of the week too Chris :(

Can't seem to find an S2 wiring diagram Bodo, will have to wing it

all good, im sure we can sort it out, thanks for looking :woot: ....and yes this weather is balls....soo sick of it. i dont think ive had a complete fortnight of work all year yet :(

    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
