Looking for opinions; The last 1000kms the car has been a bit gutless (not limp mode issue, just have to really push it to get anywhere quick), and fuel economy has gotten ridiculous, I would normally get 600kms to a tank, am getting 400 all highway driving. I've recently replaced the SCV...

Thanks Tony, I'm glad you pointed that out otherwise I definitely wouldn't have noticed! It's unfortunate but it'll have to do I suppose

Normally I wouldn't need anywhere near that much power, but wanted to make a box to put them in so I can power my mates sites on an upcoming trip

Just a quick question, I managed to score 2 Century C105 Deep cycle batteries from work that I'm hoping to put in my dual battery system, they each have 225Ah. When connected in parallel they'll have a combined 450Ah, but in the manual for the Ctek it says it will only charge up to 300Ah...

I just bought a RTT from 4wd supa centre. What's been explained to me is its only dynamic weight you have to worry about, which is the weight of the setup while you're driving (65kgs), your roof racks will probably be able to hold close to 300kg when parked (this is the static weight). I have...

Hey guys, recently I've noticed a pretty big change in my nav (08 stx), it seems very subdued, when taking off and general driving it seems to have huge amounts of turbo lag, and smoke pours out the back when you change gears. Its always had an amount of smoke but this is considerably more than...

Thanks for that Tony! And thanks for the solid advice, when I have some time this weekend I'll definitely give that a go. I'm just glad is not a huge issue, I was having kittens seeing all that oil leaking out, hours make sure those clamps are all on there right

Yes sorry, hose that connects to the intercooler. So I shouldn't be concerned about this much oil? Would it be best to clean out intercooler etc? A catch can was somewhere on my list of things to do so I might bump that up the list haha

Hey guys, To start with, please pardon my ignorance. I noticed today while having a look under the bonnet today that my dump pipe had a huge build up of oil on it, I removed it and noticed inside it was pretty soaked with it. I've just come back from a small trip camping where I noticed I lost...

Hi guys! A bit off topic to any Nissan product, but here is a great new product called the Bajaboard! The BajaBoard is the world's first electric skateboard to feature independent suspension and steering, with high tech spring & shock absorbers. It has a four wheel drive chassis, fitted with...

Works great for me, couldn't be happier!!

Hey guys, thought I'd start a thread that can work as a guide for me and any other less-than-experienced home mechanics. I'm planning on doing all my own services (all the minor ones at least) for obvious financial reasons and also to get a better understanding of the car I'm driving, and was...

Yeah looks like all the other kits on eBay work out to be the same, does anyone else have any cheaper options?

I'll definitely take one!

Yeah no worries man, just let me know how much and I'll send it through
