Oil cooler and relocator kit is in the process of being installed, but it seems unlikely there will be room on the drivers side front to mount the cooler due to blow-off valve piping taking up most of that space. Paul seems intent there is too much stuff already around the radiator mounts to place it where most do and it seems the only option which I was looking at anyway is on the passenger side front. He has also suggested up in front of the battery which i'm not liking(possible heat source problems here) really, but not sure yet. We may have to get some new lines to reach and Jez said he goes to Pirtek, I was thinking Enzed might be able to supply the right type of hoses for this, and the oil catch can hoses which will be replaced. A Trust Airynx kit piping kit has been ordered too, so the K&N's are not going on now it seems.

So realistically we are looking to get that I can remember:

Set of 4 cheap new or used 19x9 sized tyres, probably 255-35 or thereabouts.

Coilpacks and ignition loom, looking to stick with genuine nissan as they seem to be easily capable.

Hard intercooler piping kit, to replace the big ol' black ones.

AFM Deletion pipes as they seem to be called, along with MAP sensors i believe we'll be needing(Yay or nay?).

Rocker cover gaskets and some seal thing I was told goes under the center valley cover(Rocker covers and centre one are being chromed as we speak).

There's a small 90degree plastic hoses point on the firewall, right next to the brake booster that broke when removing the hose, anybody know what this is called?

Cheers for the help so far guys, plan is to have this car running by the 30th of this month, so hopefully we can get there and come check out some of the SAU activities soon after.

    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
    • Shall we... wake you up when September ends?  
    • I got the Repco video recommended on YouTube.
