I managed to change pads without removing calipers in Skylines.

wow. Well i learnt something new today, i never even thought to attempt it.

Kaz buy your pads somewhere, go into a mechanic shop and tell them to fit them for 30$ no questions asked if they say no try another shop. If they say your discs need machining say i dont care. It should only take 30 min so sit and watch them like a hawk..

Or if u feel confident just do it yourself

see this is the only thing that stops me halfway through lol .... the male brute force..

pulled off my radiator hoses no worries but this one vacuum hose.. FCKME too hard, still cant get it off

i probably have even less strength than you do though.

AND..

I don't want to go to school!

Ok few tips

leverage is your friend

hoses come of a lot easier if you warm them with your hairdryer first

and it is best not to say things like "FCKME too hard" when you're in a room full of men :P

It's easy. Hardest part is pushing the pistons back. Nothing a set of crowbars can't fix

+1, I used long screwdriver once but thinner and flat surface crowbar is ideal.

no screwdriver? you need crowbars? =(

If you have long screwdriver, you can 'push' the pistons with both hands, but long and flat surface crowbar is easier.

I have no upper body strength at all. Kinda look at it uselessly and then call my mechanic... Or bf... :P

I can change a wheel though!

    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much

    • 😜 hopefully we get this instead of a new R36 GTR due to recent financial problems at Nissan. Nismo to sell a complete kit with RB26 and driveline. All starts making sense (ok maybe not) once the Nissan Leaf's (Leaves?) with stuffed EV motors/batteries hit the market cheap
    • Hi guys , have had allot of time for SAU and has helped me out heaps in the past so I thought I would give it a go , I have my QM1 white NUR for sale 1 of 156 examples built by Nissan. Serious personal messages please if interested and details will be provided , asking 500k 
    • Oof. Could be worse I guess. I suppose they haven't put any effort into ally suspension parts or CF panels, seats, etc. So they could probably pull about half of that back out of the car. Not like a bunch of other EVs that already have CF everything and roll the scales at ~2t.
