Ooooh, I got some of that Nulon Air intake cleaner stuff yesterday. (spray in a vac line with engine running etc...) is this the same?

gonna try it on the SkyWags and if good I'll do the 33 and the Micra too.

I got Threebond upper engine cleaner, apparently its the exact same product as the Subaru one.

You can get it at Repco.

Its nice and smooth when cruising around, i can feel the difference.

I think what you got is basically carbie cleaner. Which is real good for fuel deposits and gunk in the inlet.

I dont know if it cleans inside the combustion chamber as well.

Mechanic in a can is never as good as pulling it apart and cleaning it properly.

But so much easier... its a pity they are only good for maintenance not repair.

Also tried my foaming brush today, :down: too much water, not enough foam.

Maybe i can adjust something and get it working.

Oil change and new leads/dizzy cap/rotor on the r31 and new lithium battery installed in the s13 (1.5kg!).

lol - hehehe

Battery, fuel canister and fire extinguisher in the middle - awesome !

So we have spark and fuel. Oxygen in the vehicle. Lucky you have a fire extinguisher :P

Well after washing the cars 2 days ago then with rain and then dust yesterday :rant: I washed them again :rant: today....

also put new Ultra high performance Century battery in the 32 and new spark plugs :)

a lot easier to do than 33's and 34's but still a pain due to strut brace and valley cover

bought some Stanley tools from Supercheap ($280) and then returned them an hour later. Stanley are Shit :rant: tools now days.

Will go out to that new Total Tool shop in Fyshwick as apparently they have quality tools !!

Oh, those Nulon instructions seem like the best way to clean the pistons.

Mine didnt say to do that. Hmmmm......

Foaming too... not carbie cleaner.

And yeah the Volvo got filthy 10 minutes after i washed it, and the 32 didnt get dried, so it was filthy too from going wet into a dusty shed.

Total tools had a 7/64 or something allen key that is a stupid American weird ass size. Only place i could find one.

They have a VERY large selection of tools. Good brands too. :thumbsup:

You will like.

I got sick off shit tools so have slowly been building a nice set. It makes life soo much easier hanging off tools that dont strips heads or blow out ratchet gears.

The subaru upper engine cleaner works BETTER at cleaning an IACV with the engine running, than what is possible when you strip the IACV off and scrub it!

He said your learning to DIY....

Good stuff. :thumbsup:

Hacking out some steel with Rob thisarvo, making a strutbrace for the skywagon.

The tricky bit is done, just needs a little trim to fit.

Rob, ever done mig welding? Wanna have a go? You can practice first.

Im not much good at it, but its fun shooting drops of molten metal at 50Hz. :D

Nup, never with a Mig, only did a quick Arc Weld in Metal work in High School. Was fun though. :D

I might have a crack at it!

Put a can of Nulon Foaming Air Intake cleaner through the Wagon today. Was Expecting a cloud of 24yr old crap to come out the Zaust.

I got Nothing. :(

Feels a little snappier in response now though but it must've cleaned something out good. (AAC Valve) In park It now idles a 2000rpm!

Need to adjust it.

and yes, RoseBud is starting to Bloom. New Fuel filter, Oil filter and Fresh Oil all done (Mostly) by Jeremy. :D plus a couple of cable ties here and there.

Anytime Bud.

LOL! Yeah... Theys is me Girls. :D

Cold Start valve cleaned/adjusted.

AAC Valve/idle screw adjusted.

Cruise control cable adjusted. (too much tension/Throttle was slightly open)

Now the Wagon idles at 1000rpm. :banana:

I love this game. :D

Who's your favourite ? lol

Well after doing new plugs and battery on Friday the GTR wouldn't start :wacko:

Got annoyed and let her sit and think about what she'd done wrong to me !!!

Until today.

I decided to take a look and eliminate things it could be. :unsure:

Started going through things from Fuse to Fuel pump via ignition was the plan.

Checked Fuel pump fuse and all other fuses. Fuel pump was priming ok or at least making the right sounds. No idea if fuel was getting to the injectors yet.

Was starting on removing the valley cover to get to the coils, loom etc and the new plugs and thought I'd just try the ignitor first

Kicked over first try when I put my spare in - always the simplest things hey ... :yes:

I was :woot: that I didn't have to keep going

    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
    • Hi all! Looking to relocate the battery to the trunk of an R34 GTT. I want to do it using as many stock GTR components as I can (including the harness protectors from the 34 GTR that run underneath along the chassis to the engine bay). So far I’ve purchased the battery tray from a 33 GTR, as the captive weld nuts are already there just asking to be used. There is also the slight issue of now having to relocate the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU, which in GTT’s sits right above where the battery will then sit on the tray. Has anyone already achieved this, and if you have any pics that you wouldn’t mind sharing? It would be great to see how others have done it and where you put them, as there are countless holes in the parcel shelf panel to potentially use. Just trying to get some ideas bounced around, and to help uncover any potential problems I may encounter by  my choice of location. TIA for any help!
    • Brand was ard.   I also threw a brand new battery at it and beefed up the wire from the alternator to battery and added an extra earthing point from the battery 
    • Evening all,       I'm replacing some bolts on my RB25 with probolt Australia bolts.       Does anyone know the following, m5 m6 etc 10mm 20mm etc       Coil cover   Cam covers   Plazamaman fuel rail   Front cover (timing cover)   Etc   Any help would be awesome   Or any lists anywhere
