Under the air filter there is a perfect spot for my second catch can. Amazingly I also found an unused threaded hole in the chassis rail!

Mr Nissan must have known I would need one!

The driver's side was more problematic for me as the can I bought is too big. It's jammed in the brake booster compartment for now til I get a smaller one.

congrats to all the new parents. hope to see your bundles of joy at the next stagea cruise.

In other news..... I had my Shift kit installed today, full trans service and flush, and attesa flush and bleed.

The car shifts sooo much better now, especially at low speeds. and at higher rpm with tiptronic on, it actually shifts when you press the button,

instead of waiting for a few seconds(normally resulting in limiter bash and flames)

:thumbsup:

But I liked the flames! :angry:

Be good to check it out on the cruise!

Speaking of babies, I got my Stag the day before my daughter was born, which was a month ago yesterday :)

Done to the Stagea lately:

Cam cover gaskets

Running high boost mode on the stock solenoid

Flushed my power steering fluid

Replaced my rear brake pads (housemate who works at Veale Autoparts said they have the pads that suit listed as being for a Nissan 300c)

Front pads, master cylinder stopper and brake fluid flush to come :)

We should start a thread "What have you done to your WIFE lately"

That will be one thread not worth visiting for me!! :(

As I mentioned to my wife when asked why I am so randy all the time "Yes dear, there is a f#$king reason I am so randy.....I can count the number of times we have done in the last year on one hand....not what you signed up for just quietly......W = Washing - I = Ironing - F = F#$king - E = Everything!"

.....would be good if she did at least one of her chosen WIFE titles!"rant.gif

haha, if she reads it, it will be more a case of 'what HAVEN'T you done lately'.....

been getting some progress with mine lately. makes me want to keep it, partly because it's looking hot and running like a dream - partly because i have spent so many labour hours on it lately and nearly lost a thumb in the process! there is blood on the cam covers still!

over the last few weekends it has been:

- rolled rear gaurds

- fitted BBS LM's 19x9.5 (+20 front, +5 rear with bolt on spacers fitted)

- lowered another 35mm

- wheel alignment

- Platinum plugs

- Adonised R33 Calipers red

- New project MU pads up front

- German spec DRL's mounted in side vents

- sprayed cooler black, black hose fittings - stealthy

- Stage21 front lip, wrapped in Carbon fibre

- M35 rear wiper

- shaved rear badges

- Rays wheel nuts

on the to do list:

-Fit r33 radiator air guide (hasn’t arrived yet so don’t know how much modding will be required)

-Fit new bonnet struts (from a 95 Maxima – haven’t arrived – hope they fit)

-Fit Red/Gold BBS center caps

-Heat shield for pod and find some way to get cold air to it (!!)

-Neo tech rear camber arms

-Raise car 10mm – lip hits my driveway >:-(

-another alignment

-Do some serious cleaning in engine bay – has been neglected for too long! then might start detailing some parts.......

it never ends, and it's hard work when you don't have a garage and you're not allowed to work on your car in the body corporate carpark.

That will be one thread not worth visiting for me!! :(

Shouldn't there be either a "C" for "cooking" or an "S" for "sammich maker" in that title?

Maybe you should turn the tables :)

Let her know you don't need her for it by putting on some pr0n and giving it a crank in the lounge room after dinner.... or better still, when you are both in bed getting ready for sleep.

With a bit of luck, that daily display of reverse psychology should net you the return you are after.

If it doesn't, it least you'll sleep well :happy:

Goddamn dude...I feel for you. Not that I really know how it feels...I just feel sorry for your predicament! :-(

On a side note, my wife complains that I dont let her feed for me more often(she bakes daily just so I have snacks at work, she makes my lunch everyday and breakfast on weekends and she cooks my dinner on nights that I don't get take away) she does all the washing, cleans the house, helps me work on my cars (even does stuff on them when I'm at work if I need her to, removing/installing turbos is her best skill, small hands lol) and to put it plainly bed manor isn't a problem. Maybe I'm just lucky

    • But I think you missed mine.. there is also nothing about the 98 spec that supports your claim..  according to the fuel standards, it can be identical to 95, just very slightly higher octane number. But the ulp vs pulp fuel regulations go show 95 (or 98), is not just 91 with some additives. any claim of ‘refined by the better refineries’ or ‘higher quality fuel’ is just hearsay.  I have never seen anything to back up such claims other than ‘my mate used to work for a fuel station’, or ‘drove a fuel delivery truck’, or ‘my mechanic says’.. the actual energy densities do slightly vary between the 3 grades of fuel, but the difference is very minor. That said, I am very happy to be proven wrong if anyone has some hard evidence..
    • Hey guys I’m chasing a Rb20det complete or bare block need a good running engine as mine has low comp 
    • You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.
    • 98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.
