I was trying to install my FMIC this arvo only to find out my car was one of them cars that need the support bar to be cut... decided to give up after that and send it in for someone else to fix it. Basically front bar is cut, and the hole to fit the pipe through is also done. Just wondering where all you people got your FMIC's installed, thinking in consideration to prices... thanks all !!!

do what i did: buy a cooler kit and a case of jim beam and cola. Have a can. Go to your mates place who has a set of ramps to put the car on. Have a can. Take off the bumper bar. have a can. Remove old side mount cooler. Have a can. Remove old piping for side mount cooler. Have a can. Cut holke for new cooler pipe. Have a can. Attach the cooler to the car (i put it on about 10cms offset to one side because i was a bit pissed by now) Connect up pipes. have a can. Put bumper bar back on. Have a can. Look at the cooler through the bumper bar and notice its ofset. yell, scream and curse and stumbell all over the shop. Take some photos and have a few more cans. Throw up because youve had too many. Have another can and pass out in the backseat of your car.

Get woken up by best mates old man asking you why the fu(k you are sleeping in your car. Mumble something to him, pack up tools take car off ramps. Have a glass of water to make you feel better. Head to maccas for a greasy breakfast.

Make sure it gets done properly! :lol: I still havent fixed it, you cant notice it much unless you look at it for a good 10 secs or so. I think ill fix it next weekend.

Yeh i mounted the Can to the FMIC piping hopefully it wouldnt move , its such a big piece of crap and its pretty stable also took out the silencer hopefully give the exhaust more flow. On a sidenote: Nothing wrong with the install of the Piping work yet, all running fine ... i just need to get the T join to see how much boost im running.

      Rb head oil drain dimensions

      I personally would run 2x from the cam covers into the catch can, 1x sump vent to catch can (would mount this at a low point of the catch can, so it can also act as a drain). I would see if you can run a -12AN down there to improve venting and also draining. The head drain thing, just drain that back to the sump on the other side. Catch can to be vented, unless you plumb or back to the intake.

      Yeah the head "drain" is rather a sump/crank case vent. My catch can stopped filling up after venting the sump to the catch can. I have 4x fittings in mine, which is about 5Ls. 2x cam, 1x sump vent/catch can drain, 1x fitting back to the intake and a massive breather which can be blocked so it's a fully sealed system.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By Zabuza · Posted

      Ok glad you clarified on the frenchy’s options , I was worried about if my oem hoses would fit the new compressor or not if I just bought the bracket/compressor kit ,  didn’t realize they also sold a larger full conversion kit. Hmm may just go oem in that case then to make it easy only because I plan to sell this car to upgrade to a 32 GTR or 34 GTT.

      Right, here's a video of the basic operation at least.  This is what you can expect day to day when you turn the car on and it boots from standby.  The only thing from a media point of view I haven't gotten working is for it to autoplay plexamp when it turns on from standby (it works from cold boot) but that's more of a plexamp problem as it will autoplay other music players.  Also attached is my one stray cable.  It's part of the screen's wiring adapters but there's just nowhere for it to go in my car.  I've just now done a bit of research and found a matching port on a 2010-2014 head unit with BOSE.  Mine has no BOSE so that's that case pretty much closed I think.  Plugging in the Infiniti AC panel basically did nothing for me, so that's a dead end as well.  Next port of call is to mess with this CANBUS module and see what I can find from it.  I found this resource containing the DBC files for a 2010+ G37 : https://github.com/icecube45/Dash_InfinitiG37/blob/master/InfinitiG37.dbc I'll now have something to go from when I try to extract my CANBUS data so I can see if the HVAC Mode, Fan Speed, Temperature, etc. match and also the gear shifter position.  It's a pretty big assumption that it's just mismatched CAN signals but considering all the devices in the CAN network are talking to each other (AC can be fully adjusted just with no info on screen) it might be a safe one.  I will report back WhatsApp Video 2025-02-26 at 12.49.10.mp4

      Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went?
