Mine is still going I think, I lent it to Jase a year ago. 13 years is pretty reliable if you ask me.

If only Nissan still sold that original part, not the part they sell now which only lasts a few weeks. (if you are lucky.)

My aftermarket ones seem to be lasting fine Leon... :)

That's a good point Scotty, & you are totally correct. Just because a heap have failed in the last 12 months or so, doesn't make the AFM any less reliable then a cam sensor, window motor or electric seat switch. They're all going to be getting close to the end of their life after 13 years or so.

I've got 2 original AFM's & given how little distance my car gets driven, I reckon I'm set for another decade or 2 :)

it happens every now & then in between gears. I'll be looking into the Kompact BOV asap.

Where does the factory boost guage connect up ? Mine is is always reading in the neg & occasionally goes to 0.

Is there a guage you can swap in it's orig place without going all ricer & mounting one.?

sensor of a black oval box in engine bay next to wheel arch. Pull it apart and resolder the points.

To follow on from the Facebook argument from last night... M35 part required for when the time travel switch fails on the clock assembly.

Does anyone have the part number for the lower ballpoints from Nissan and a price? I recently sourced some v35 ones and installed them and now front end has constant cracking in the front end.

For ballpoints, you can't go past BIC. :P

Assume you mean ball joints yeah? the lowest ones on the steering knuckle?

Nissan doesn't sell it separately, they'll only sell you the whole assembly. Have to go on ebay.

DAmmit I bought them too, seems like some other haven't had issues with them though...

Microguard Pure-Tron Cabin Filter: B74946N025

This probably won't help many. I found that my Stagea didn't use the standard cabin filter instead in it's place is a Microguard Pure-Tron:

When i'd pulled the glove box etc.. out i was presented with this:

Amayama have the replacement filter for ~$65. Looking for alternatives.

Yeah it's an Ioniser, with a filter sitting in it. It's the first one I've seen like this, all the previous ones i've seen / dealt with have been the parcel shelf models in Skylines and 'rollas.

The standard filter doesn't fit, it's way too big (i purchased one prior to pulling the car apart). The ioniser takes a up about half the height and the filter sits within it's frame making it smaller in all directions.

Size comparison (Stock filter bottom):

I had the same as this on my ARX. Gave up trying to find a replacement that fitted, and when back to the XTrail/Maxima sized one...

In addition, the actual ioniser screen was discussting, covered in cigarette smoke like rubbish... Actually found it all in the garage over the weekend and tossed it..

G'day all,

I'm chasing part numbers and possible price of valve stem seals for vq25det engine. Any help would be great.

It's an engine out job, are you sure it's the valve stem seals? Have you tried leak testing them or something?

It's just the PCV valve, it sucks crankcase vapours into your engine and overnight they condense and run down onto the valve. It burns off as you take off in the morning.

I wouldn't worry about it at all. I ended up fitting a catch can to my PCV line, but it has to be sealed as it's in vac. It worked well to stop it, but it's a pain to drain.

    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
