he didnt no wat 2 say , so i handed a texter 2 him and said , cross out the R on the badge , and slap a S there mate .

have a nice day lol

the guys face was priceless lol

You real champion!

lol.

Well seeing as we are here: an aquantence of mine with a gtst (told everyone how I paid too much becaues I paid twice what he did and my cars older...) about 2 months after purchasing his cheap skyline stops driving it. Ask him about it one day he tells me "it has 50 psi compression in the front left cyliner and 60 in the front right.."

Everyone calls it a skyliner!

They ask me if its illegal cause its RHD

Some dude was at my house the other day with an aristo i commented on how nice it was and mentioned i have a skyline, i think he got offended he was like "pfftt i have one too"

Driving to Uni it had been wet but was mostly dry, just a few light patches left, didnt think much of it when I cam up to a corner the was completely wet. Started to brake, and there was nothing, locked wheels, and back end started to step out. I wasnt going very fast when I got to the corner but manged to get the car around the corner, half sideways, waiting to clip the gutter.

Just touched the gutter with the back tyre which straightened me out, Im now pointing the correct way facing down the street to which I see a truck pulled over no more than 25 meters away.

The truck diver had just stepped out his vehicle to see a skyline crossed up through an intersection and clipping a gutter, he walks out into the first lane of traffic and points and abuses me. All good I would have taken the abuse but it was his 40L drum of oil that had tipped over and covered the road making it slippery, he just didnt know it yet.

one time.... at band camp

this old asian dude was sitting in his car in a carpark as i pulled in, stopped right near him, looking around for a spot, and he sticks his head out and says >..< "ooooh nice car, haww, japaneeese." i figured he was japanese and said thanks. lol

what a nice old guy.

I don't get any funny comments.. they pretty much all sound like "nice import fkhead", "go back to japan", "get a holden" etc etc

I have had props from a few cougars about my Stagea though :P

Stagea comments are amusing, i've had a few people do the whole 'Oh, it's a skyline wagon, I know all about them', and they proceed to rattle off a bunch of facts, all of which are wrong.

There was also a group of Japanese tourists gathered around the car taking photo's of it once lol.

I live near a Uni and regularly drive past. I have some Jap/Asian students looking at my car :P

Maybe reminds them of home....

I don't get many comments however when I'm at the lights a [insert riced 4 cylinder car/commondoor/fjord/porsche here] will always want to race me ;)

The best if their GF is in the passenger seat checking out my car - if the guy looks like he is getting pissed off - I blow a kiss to their GF

If it's the episode I'm thinking of, it was Hammond. It was the episode where they all

bought crappy rear wheel drive cars and took them to the track, they had to compete with all

the other drivers in their much better cars.

Hammond jokingly said this to a GTR driver to try and psyche him out... there were a bunch

of cuts to all three of them saying stupid things to other drivers to try and put them off.

I watched a very old clip on youtube the other day with Clarkson saying the r32 GTR would beat

an f355 Ferrari in competition

QUOTE(Munkvy)The guy on top gear saying that R32 GTRs brakes sometimes explode!

i don't suppose you know the episode that was in?

anyway mine...

"skylines are so passe"

yes, i've also had the "skylines suck"

"skylines don't have any torque" to which i replied "do you even know what torque is?" ... "yeah it's it's it's it's er it's um"

i don't even own a skyline

    • My plan is to go the pink option. But still add the 4th fitting near the oil cap and just cap it off for now.  That way I can add 2 extra to the sump and have 4 dedicated breathers/drains if I ever remove the sump for any reason. 
    • Oh, yeah, look - here's the thing. You always replace the tensioner when you're going in there to replace a belt....under normal circumstances. You want to make sure it is good and safe, and that you don't create a reason to take the front of the bloody motor apart again. But in this case, OP is replacing a belt that has aged out on time, not usage. The belt is a million miles away from aging out on usage. The belt gets a time "limit" merely because it is made of rubber and can degrade naturally. The tensioner? Not so much. I reckon it could last forever on the current usage pattern. So I reckon if the thing is going to continue to get used at the same rate, replacing the tensioner is somewhat gratuitous. Would I replace it if I was doing it on my car right now? Hell yes. Because my car does 10-20 thousand kays a year. So it's all going to be the same thrashedness. Would I YOLO it on OP's car. More than likely.
    • I dunno. I think any one of those from each side to sump is probably enough. Remember - this is about creating a path for gas flow up from the sump to the cam covers. That gas flow then has to leave via the lines to the catch can. There's probably little point in providing 100% more capacity from sump up to covers cf. what you have from there to the catch can. Put in the 3 convenient ones? Any which way that you see fit. That'd be my thoughts.
    • Getting holes drilled into to cam covers and AN10 fitting welded on. My sump has 2x AN10 fittings on it already. These are the options I have come up with that can be done without needing to remove the sump to add more fittings. In all options front of passenger side cover connects to VCT head drain bung (i know this isn't the best spot but my feeling is it must do something). Option 1 (pink). The back of each cam covers gets its own line to sump. Option 2 (blue). The back of each cam covers are linked and share a line to sump. The front of drivers side gets its own line. Option 3 (Black). Drivers side are Tee'd together and share a line to the sump. Passenger side rear gets its one line to the sump.
    • I'd be surprised if Nissan doesn't mention it in the manual as it seems unlikely that a tensioner is going to last 200,000km.
