Hey, recently had an Autowatch 446 premium alarm system installed on my 32 gts-t, wondering if anyone has/has had this same or any other Autowatch alarm with a turbo timer? If so what are your thoughts on it?

I have to take it in again to have the turbo timer installed and was wondering if it was worth it? I don't really know why but I'm not huge on the whole turbo timer idea I prefer just letting it idle for a little while I'm still in the car.

Any thoughts / opinions would be great,

Thanks in advance

Turbo timers are a defect, not ADR compliant.

just drive normal for the last few min and use synthetic oils, idle for a min while you gather your stuff and you should be fine. don't flog it then shut it down or the turbo can sludge up from burning oil.

      Bleeding Air From Coolant

      By silviaz · Posted

      I read on YouTube that the neo has 2 bleeder valves? Can't see anything in the manual though

      Recomended Coolant For Gt T R34

      The only other time I changed it is when I noticed it had become discoloured after a few track days (it was .. yellowish). So I drained and refilled the rad.  I think most people are in this situation. It's not like the car ran any cooler after I changed the coolant either. I'm gonna go with "If it makes you feel better, change it!"

      Ah ok. I put in a new radiator previously and flushed the coolant out at the same time but it is getting to that 2 year mark. My car is pretty much a daily driver in a sense but haven't put heaps of km on it.

      I think you'll find that with modified cars, the radiator has to come out more often than once every 2 years, meaning this generally gets cycled pretty well lol. If I had a car that had been sitting for 5+ years I'd probably flush the coolant. Coolant really shouldn't go off. It's main purpose is to inhibit rust and stop the whole thing from freezing, the latter not really being an issue here.

      The nissan manual says to change coolant every 2 years. Is this still necessary if you're using coolant like Penrite or nulon which has improved over the years? It says it lasts 500,000km which seems hard to believe lol.
