Hey Blitz,

I will be staying at the hotel (new T) on the 14th, we fly out the next day so Friday is the only day I can have a look around. What are you guys up to on Fri??

Ken

Ken,

I assume you mean the New Tsukamoto hotel? Friday is the press day for Autosalon which we hope to get into. If you are at the New Tsukamoto then we can meet after autosalon for the nights festivities. There will be a number of us staying at that hotel.

Hi,

I am Japtaxi's gf - living in Nagoya, Japan. We are coming up to Tokyo on Friday night. Here is where we are staying for Friday, Sat and Sun nights:

I am not sure how far/close it is to TAS. We are also going to stay here on Mon/Tues night:

Then on Wed we are heading up to Sapporo, Hokkaido for 4 days and 3 nights. Then it is back to Nagoya and back to work for me the following week.

Japtaxi will have a JR Pass and I won't, so I plan on getting any train tickets when we want to catch the train - will this be a problem? I hope we can sit together.... :Oops:

Basically you need to be a member of a press association, and/or be covering the event for a publication. Don't take my word as law though, this is just the requirements as I understand them.

    • Thanks for advice chaps   so you would change idler and tensioner bolt as well ? I guess because you thinking they have stretched once ?   i have done some research and on nissan belt and seem to hold 700hp but thinking HKS to be on safe side   i think I put nissan there last time   also thinking of changing cam cover to glass style:)
    • 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.
