Yep, that was mine.

Hmm, 750 bucks currently for a leather interior, popup screen, reversing camera and Nismo exhaust which are all in good condition.

Turbo, intake, dump may be okay, but I don't know.

Steering looks fine!!

Oh, and that headlight was fine Alex :P The other one, well that was in a million bits... instantly. Can't believe how readily they disintegrate!

Scott, and what radiator cap to you have Mr. Mishimoto?

Should've grabbed that damn G35 battery cover pinch.gif

Quick search for "battery cover" brings up this Paul whistling.gif

Any Nissan/Infinity dealer in the US, I went through West Covina Nissan for mine, but they are not so cooperative since Tony left.

Might even be some on Ebay Motors.

Should be a bit cheaper now though, I believe my mate got his recently for around the $100 but really needs to make up a couple of brackets.

How much factory bodywork did you need to cut? Any pics?

looks a lot neater with that cover.

Cheers

Yep, looks waaay nicer with one.

If you look at yours, you will see that there is an extra 10-15mm(?) of metal above the square rubber grommets for your hoses.

Cut that in line with the top of the grommets and run a brush with some rust prohibitive paint, then all you need to do is make up a small bracket for the top right section of the cover and cut a little in that area to fit :)

Surely they have some stupid hidden reserve for like 6k?

Yep, I was told they had $6k on it.

You can't cut the plastic cover?

I'm somewhat interested, but I can't find the run through from last time you did the group buy - am I just not searching properly? It's not on here or the 'somewhat awesome' forum as far as I can tell?

You won't find one.

GB didn't go ahead and it was only after I installed mine that I thought of offering the GB.

I think you can cut the plastic cover, but I couldn't see doing so would end up with a satisfactory finish so I cut the top strip of metal instead.

No need to worry Ryan, it is not a big job.

      Blue slip

      You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Duncan · Posted

      yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia

      Another "where do these lines and plugs go" RB25DET question

      By thatjawncrazy · Posted

      GTSboy, thank you again. i’ve been reading all the other SAU RB25 vacuum line threads and you have the utmost patience for people asking “where do my vacuum lines go”. it’s appreciated. i did also enlist a few other RB guys local to me.  i would like to run 5 to 4. turbo pressure side to wastegate actuator. i would like to run 3 to 1. power steering air valve line to intercooler outlet. (this is how it was previously). i was told 2 is the bleed port for the boost solenoid - which i’m not running - so should be capped.   anyone see any problems with that?

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.

      Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
