LOL took a month for him to start work on it?

I take it he's doing this for free :whistling:

Contemplating getting the Nismo front bar...hmmm

Hmmm, they were refurbished and in primer WEEKS ago; but when he gets busy...

The Nismo bar is porn; if I could've found one, that's what I'd have.

your wifes gonna chop your balls off.

No BC's Ryan?

Yup, BCs. Looked at heaps of others but everyone is so happy with their BCs why bother? Seem like the most practical, and one of the cheapest, options.

Looks like I'm getting a set of DBA 4000 disks too, hopefully find out tomorrow :ph34r:

Ok so I've done something. Took the airbox out last night and now my Atessa light is showing on the dashboard. I believe there is a relay right near the airbox, which makes too much sense to not be the problem, but everything looks plugged in and ok.

Is there a common problem with this thing?

And it's the relay UNDER the airbox for the 4WD, not the ones next to it, isn't it Brad :whistling:

Something for the "What haven't you done to your Stagea" pile, I haven't ordered my BCs because Just Jap haven't got any stock. 7 day wait at this stage, which almost makes it worth going to Street to Track.

Brain fail. I think it's the check engine light that is showing up. Two years of no cars and longer with no Nissans. :laugh:

Only other thing is plug in the boost controller/turbo timer harness in last night. Can of worms opened!

Did you unplug the OEM boost solenoid?

Id say check the error codes, theres a squence to get the CEL to flash which corrospondes to OBD2 error code list. The squence is documented here: http://www.m35stagea...ic.php?f=6&t=11 and the error codes: http://www.m35stagea...ic.php?f=6&t=12

Checked the codes. Realised how much I blink usually hah.

Pretty sure it was P0100 Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit Malfunction or P0110 Intake Air Temperature Sensor.

Either way, cleared the codes and it's fine now. I'm wondering if I clicked my car onto ON without the AFM plugged in or something..

:rofl: I have the same issue.

That'd definitely cause the CEL light to stay on for a while, it would eventually turn itself off apparently, but when I've had it happen to me I've always just cleared it.

If that was the cause, it shouldnt come back on now. Easy fix :thumbsup:

yeah turning the car on without starting it WILL throw a CEL if the AFM isnt plugged in.

and dunc is right, it will clear itself after a few days, but you can clear it if you want yourself......

    • Nissan/Pitwork is fine stuff. HKS is just marketing wank. I personally wouldn't do the idler if it is already new. If it looks and feels fine, it is fine. But as D says - it's cheap to add it to the job. The water pump ditto. Even more so. If it show no signs of problems, then it is nearly new - leave it.
    • 1. I can't see a location on your profile but you do mention GBP so I'll assume you are in UK. In Australia, CBC make a timing belt kit with the gears and idler and tension bearing and that is what I use without any problems. I'm sure OEM or HKS are also fine but I wouldn't pay extra for HKS over anything else. 2. Yes, I would always change the idler and tensioner and the stud and bolt that hold them in. Assuming they were all done last time it is highly unlikely you would have a problem, but they are very cheap to add to the job considering the time it will take anyway.  3. No, you don't need to lock them as such (I think that is more for engines without timing marks), but you should make sure they move as little as possible once the belt is off as you can hit pistons on valves if they move too far. As always, make sure you line it all up to top dead centre with the timing marks aligned before you take the old belt off.

    • Hey everyone,   I’m looking for some advice on replacing the timing belt on my RB25DET Neo-powered 1998 Skyline. The engine was fully built about five years ago, including a fresh timing belt, water pump, and other essentials. However, since then, the car has only covered around 2,000–3,000 miles. It’s currently making around 650hp.   Even though the mileage is low, I know timing belts have a time-based lifespan too, and most recommendations suggest changing them every five to six years or 50,000 miles. Since I’m at that time mark, I’d rather not take any risks and plan to swap it out soon.   A few things I’d like to hear opinions on: 1. What’s the best belt for this setup? Should I go with an OEM Nissan belt, or is the HKS fine-tune a better choice given the power level? 2. Would you bother replacing the idler pulley and tensioner at the same time, or only if they show wear? 3. When swapping the belt, is it necessary to lock the cam and crank gears in place, or is lining up the timing marks enough? I’ve seen different approaches, and I want to make sure I do it right.   The water pump was changed with the rebuild and isn’t run off the timing belt, so I don’t see a need to replace it again. I just want to make sure I approach this the right way.   Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks!
