its just throttle body/carby cleaner, on my subaru it didnt make much difference what so ever. wynns or nulon make a really good carby cleaner. just spray some around the throttle butterfly, open it up and spray some down the throttle, then disconnect one of the vacuum lines at either end... say... the fuel pressure reg hose and the charcoal cannister hose one at a time and spray some in there, then start the car, it will run rough as, give it a rev till it comes good, then disconnect one of the hoses and spra it in while revving the engine, then do it at the other end... it will run like a pig again, and then come good.

you could also get a bottle of fuel injector cleaner, put it in a clear drinking bottle, then remove the brake booster hose and stick it in the bottle while revving the engine. it cleans it out good too.

ive done it to a lot of cars, and sometimes they bellow out white smoke, massive amounts, they run sweet after its done though. i did it to a mates supra, he knows nothing about cars, it started chugging and running rough and then blew out smoke, he thought i ****ed it. crazy kid, he was freaking out. came good and went heaps better.

subaru recommend it be done at every service, so if your mate had never heard about it until now, then it may have made a difference to his. but when its done all the time, it makes no difference at all.

cheers

I used this on my car and its the best $17 i ever spent. Once the car hits boost it doesnt die down till red line and stays on hard, not like it use to where it would die down near red line. the cars idle is now stable and idles lower and fuel economy for me has improved. It basicly did the same thing for me as it did for my friends wrx. On an RB20DET engine on the intake plenium near the area where you bleed the air out the water system in the engine theres a little tube that comes off by hand and has no claps on it, thats where you spray it in from

you can grab it from any suby dealer for $17 or so. first time i used it the freakin plastic hose that came with it got sucked in the plenum.!! my mate just started workin at suby docklands and he brought with him an extention hose so it wont happen again..LOL didnt really do much the first time, i guess my car was internally clean already but i still do it every 10k just for the heck of revin the engine and the atomic mushroom.

hey i kinda got a rough idea were that tube is. Its the one that comes out of the pelenium that has no clamps on it. But u got a pic of anything u can send or post up. I just wanna make sure that im not putting this stuff into places that it shouldnt go into.

if u got a pic send it to thin_69@hotmail.com

    • Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents
    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
