Hey there R33Dan.... welcome to town mate and trust me when I say handling the heat doesn't get any easier the longer you are here. And if you don't have a nice big fmic now, then you should probably think about making that your next mod - especially with that new turb.

And hey, that reminds me ..... there's a guy down at Perkins Shipping who reckons he can get a heap of cheap Jap performance parts. Says he has some Galant, Silvia, 180sx and Skyline GTR parts for sale. I got him to put my name on a set of Brembos ....... and at the price he quoted me, well shit ..... it's practically stealing!!!!!

Hey Ken, you interested in any of these parts?  :ddd:

4CDFED I'm always interested in some cheap (stolen LOL) brembos to fit the stagea.

Cheers ICE

hehehe....... truth be known mate, Ken probably went on some drunken rampage through Ropongi one night and got half the parts off cars parked in the streets as he went along. I'm sure he did get some of them at Auctions, but I'd hate to imagine who he filled full of piss to achieve that!!!!! :alcoholic

Grabbing parts at auction is fine, getting caught doing it isnt though! All my parts are legit man! I have got a set of bnr32 brembos with slotted and drilled rotors coming in the container but Craig has first option. Do have another set of 4pot 32 calipers and rotors if you are interested.

Cheers,

Ken

hey do you guys wanna meet up somewhere go for a cruise or somethin or who will be out where 2nite

Okay guys .... I suppose we had better stop post whoring R33Dan's post.

R33Dan, sorry mate - we'll get back on track now and answer your last question.

I'm sure we can all catch up for a drink sometime, but most of us NT guys in this forum are nearly all married with youngens - so I don't think we get much of a chance to go cruisin at night anymore....... although sometimes I have been known to do it when I'm trying to get the young bloke off to sleep :)

Anyhow, that said - a few of us don't mind a few cold ones on the weekend and I myself don't mind a couple after work on a Friday arvo - that is unless the missus wants to go to Casuarina, but hell - there's a couple of bars over that way too :ddd:

But if your into cruisin, best bet is just to have a look around town on a Friday or Saturday night. Check out the Carparks on the cliffs around Casuarina Drive or head down around the Trade Development Zone (TDZ) about halfway along Berrimah Road and your sure to bump into some other like-minded souls.

I'm also going to head out to Litchfield Park on the ANZAC Day long weekend with the family if anyone else is interested. We will be heading off early on Sunday morning (24.04.05) and will be staying in Bachelor overnight - so that I can partake in our traditional ANZAC Day past time and sleep it off before heading back to Darwin on Monday arvo. Anyone else wanting to tag along is more than welcome, but if u want to stay overnight, then you might have to pitch a tent or get a room at Rum Jungle.

Cheers ...... Craig

    • Hey everyone, I recently bought myself a 2001 Nissan Stegea M35, and I've had a few issues that I had to fix, my car would start intermittently and I had a bad rocker cover leak, after a couple days of looking I finally found a part number that interchanges with the OEM starter as the OEM starters at $1300 and I can't afford that, this starter was only $270 and I replaced the start and still had the same issues, I posted a video asking for help online and it went very well, some guy said it was probably a bad ignition switch so I took my dash apart and turns out my ignition switch was half screwed in and was loose, once it was tightened it fired right up, I found a local place called "Boost factory" and they sold me a part of OEM Nissan rocker covers, they were $600 which was a shocker but I couldn't find them anywhere else, so I installed them and fixed my oil leak as the old rocker cover was cracked and warped, I now need to replace my boost air inlet hoses as they have some cracks.
    • I am being real ocd and do not want to make amy mistakes so appreciate all help provided. I am overly cautious so asking for opinion even if i know the answer   few questions,   1.re tensioner, should spring be greased lightly?    2.tensioner has two washers , one pressure washer and other has recessed/ seat. I am going to put the recessed one facing tensioner where edges are cut out and pressure washer on top   3. my car has custom triger kit sold few years ago by guy who initially built the engine. I moved the crank gear and it moved in and out easy, only way to remove belt is to slide the crankshaft gear forward which I did. I have seen these being very tough to move , anything to do with my woodruff key?   it has a crank sensor shown in purple which I assume reads from the 12 teeth position mounted to the crankcase gear   4. timing belt doesn’t have arrow stating front or back just a arrow which I think is direction of rotation . Do you agree?   5.i figured out why my crankcase cover was worn as there was no washer installed over the crankcase cover before the harmonic balancer was put in place. It is missing, anyone knows the part number? It looks like this https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-crankshaft-timing-gear-rear-plate-washer-nissan-s13-ca18-a31-r32-rb20-r33-r34-c33-c34-c35-rb25?currency=USD   https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4535.382Zy2 https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4537.382dSz https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4534.382q4U  
    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
