Is it wrong to be in love with this
My box cost 4k 5 years ago which sounds mental from Snap on but its lasted really well and the quality is excellent.I agree totally its better to have a second hand Snap on than a new other make of box.At least with Snap on the draw runners locks etc can be bought if they fail.

Brake bleeding 94+ abs
Well id say that air is still trapped in the system then,in modern ABS systems sometimes the pump is actuated by a diagnostic computer to activate the soleniods in turn,instead of bleeding the system id go back to basics and force the air out from the caliper end using a clean oil can filled with brake fluid.If you look at it logically the pump is only a pump not some magic box,if you force the air the right way it will come out regardless of some fancy procedure Nissan may have,many ABS cars have bleeding done by many garages without the aid of special equipment.some systems need many litres of fluid to flow through before the air leaves,i had Nickz32s car in last yr,he had a clutch fitted by a Skyline specialist in London who fitted a braided pipe at the box end,the biting point was on the floor,they said the clutch was faulty and wanted more money to remove the box,Nick had somebody familiar with Zeds look at it and he couldnt cure it and then agreed it was a clutch problem,after alot of fluid ,and pumping with the oil can and patience it bled up,took quite a while but it worked.and if the pedal has overstroked or the caliper pistons were forced back to hard its not uncommon for seals to flip over in the master cylinder.

Ah just seen this Bob,must go back through previous rather than last posts,I never painted the sump,dont shoot me for that pmsl.Its a very good engine thats needing better turbos and bigger pipework,had so much potential imho.Im glad your enjoying it.You ditched the Emerald then ?

Weve got some aces up our sleeve Pete this season,engine and drivetrain mods that should prove worthy.The car Bob bought has a great engine though.Kyle said it was good for 1200hp on nitrous for a year and was willing to give warranty on that !! It spools up really well and has loads of torque.

Your determined to go 89mm arent you,all that aggro and for what little power it will yield,id stick with 88mm, but if you want it i can post it up,if your boring the block it wont be necessary,however if your re ringing and want to check the bores are good before honing you will need it.
