So thats gearbox oil, diff oil and exhaust polish done today :D

Whoever did the gearbox oil last time definitely made sure the plugs were tight... They were a real pita even with a breaker bar... :angry:

At least gearbox feels a lot nicer now, will be interested to see how it feels cold mornings now.

Nice! :)

What fluids did you use? I found that Cold mornings, even though 1st to 2nd was still a bit Stiff, it was definately smoother and less crunchy.

On the tight plug thing, I got the Exhaust place to Crack my GB filler plug while up on their hoist. It was still a major pita to undo but with a jack under a breaker bar it finally Cracked. ;)

machined rotors.

found brake fluid leak from bleed nipple.

was also crooked.

removed to straighten.

no yhread left for it to go back into.

swapped standard brakes back on.

bled up.

thank god I kept those.

also, removed and disassembled passengers head light due to parker lens floating around.

glued into place.

Nice! :)

Yeah, just bought the same that you use.. Go off your recommendation, will see how we go. So far so good :)

Yeah literally took me an hour to get the filler plug haha! Was uphill after that. Next time it won't be as hard haha.

Also.. Diff oil smells sooo bad lawl!

diff oil smells even worse when you get it on your shoes then hop in your car and it get's into your floor mat and or carpet, i am so glad i changed my carpet. On a real hot day with the windows up it made me feel sick. :yucky:

Having unwillingly donated a weathershield to the NSW countryside at 100km/hr today, I have sadly removed the remaining three.

Sh!t thing is, these have been on the car for well over a year with nothing but cheaparse Go-Lo mounting tape.

I recently redid them with better, more expensive tape and lost one within a few weeks.

Now to hunt down another set...

Can anyone who works at NISSAN Help me? :whistling:

I actually dislike the look of it, also I feel that it serves no purpose as I like to drive with my window up when it's raining. So, Dad ripped it off (thanks -_-). Imo, looks much better however, if it wasn't wrapped in carbon fibre plastic then it may have just looked better - Sadly it was and it got removed :D

Yesterday i waxed the roof, cleaned the engine bay, detailed the inside of the car. And lost my trim detailer :angry: Don't know where it is.

Also got a bolt stuck in one of my socket ends when putting the OEM mesh from richard on... Sigh. It's well stuck in there.

I'd also like to note that richard is COPYING my engine bay. There we go. said it.

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
