Did you check the muffler bearings? Also, last time i was in your car; there was definitely a loose nut behind the steering wheel...

Haven't updated for a while not that I've really done much to it lately but did take it out to SMSP South Circuit again and managed to knock off another second off my lap time with a 1:08.26.

Still tossing up between keeping the Brembos or fitting the Akebono set... Do I really want 19-20 inch rims? Perhaps if I can find a set of R35 wheels...

What's that I hear? Your selling me your brembos?:D

Yes, except he had the silver Infiniti calipers instead of the black Nissan one's. Same-same, but different

I haven't updated in a long time but the to do list is as follow's

1) Wideband AFR meter installed. with custom dual pod holder for it and the boost guage where the sunglass holder used to be gave up on the fibreglass and made a metal one that I now have to make pretty LOL.

2) Waiting on my OB-Link to connect up to my Nexus 7 tablet so I can run some more gauges; Water Temp, Air Temp, Oil Temp, Trans Temp, Fuel Pressure and Volts all depending if the stock ECU supports this.

3) Waiting on Flush mount bonnet pins before I get my vented bonnet sprayed and installed. (hoping to have this done before the Stagea meet on the 29th)

4) Waiting on my Akebono brakes to arrive and then I can order my 18" track rims ready for the track day on the 29th of October.

then finally #5 highflow turbo as its almost reached 100,000km and I have every chance of blowing it on the track day HAHA

along with the supporting mod's of fuel pump, injectors and a retune!!! :D

pic's will be up as soon as they are completed!!!

They are boxed, ready to send mate. What a mission, 70kg including the box so you will need to pick it up from the depot. I will PM you about it.

you wont get trans temp or fuel pressure, but you can display the rest

Why not sell the Fail-Con....sorry F-Con and go adaptronic with a digital dash. http://adaptronic.com.au/products.html?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage_new.tpl&product_id=49&category_id=5 Then you can have everything.

Better yet just get a Greddy informeter

damn now I have to figure out what else might be useful instead HAHA

if you haven't got your OB-Link set up by the time the cruise comes along, you're more than welcome to have a look at my one & see what it does

and Craig, what does the informeter show that the OB-Link wont? just curious because I did consider going informeter before i got the OB-Link/tablet setup

It depends if you get the external sensor harness, then it displays oil pressure, oil temp, boost pressure, wideband o2 analogue input as well as the usual (accurate) speed, timing, injector data through the OBD2 port.

      R34 gtt rb25det neo timing belt kit

      By Duncan · Posted

      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

      R34 gtt rb25det neo timing belt kit

      By drifter17a · Posted

      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.
