Brembo/Skyline brakes...These should be snapped up
Good priced setup there. The rear skyline ones are more or less the same as the Zed anyhow, just thicker discs. Must be a worthwhile upgrade for someone. Dave

Few interesting things I've learnt about oil pressure/smokey exhaust.
Just for my edumacation John: I understand the Pcv bit , but what does worn rings do to make high crankcase pressure, is it because the pressure comes through from above the pistons or something? Trying to learn from you people with white coats and big car brains! Cheers mate Dave :dance:

At least it's got a first aid kit to repair your ego when everyone laughs at the spoiler. Mind you, for a cheap run about I'd consider an old beamer. Dave

Rear seal is a gearbox off job, thus people often do it if they have taken the gearbox off for another reason such as knackered autobox.

I've seen one with a leaky (edit- rear half circle seal under the rocker cover) that did that, caused smoking to come up rear of engine after it hit turbos/exhaust. Someone had done a cowboy repair and tried to seal it outside with liquid gasket, obviously it didn't work to well. I changed all the rear seals along with the rocker covers and they def all needed replacing. Edit- sorry not the cam seals, the little half circle seals under the rocker covers.

Was wondering if you'd post it mate! I'm glad it wasn't anything major. Did you notice it overfilled before? probably would be a worry as people seem to have problems with the cam seals and similar things going. Looks like you solved the overfilling problem the rather quick way. Next time give us a call and I'll lend you a 14mm socket to undo the sump plug! Dave

HKS turbo upgrade for less than half price?
Oh right, I didn't realise that. Nice one.

Information on PCV valves....
Here some stuff. Auxiliary Air Controller. Pulses on and off in different cycles depending on need. Should measure 10 ohms over the aac valve terminals.

The mines ECU. Just remember someone talking about having to get rid of their mines ECU because although they are one of the best in Japan theres no-one here who can map them properly. Sorry if I'm spouting rubbish but would be interested to know either way. Dave

Information on PCV valves....
Sounds more like the aac valve (I think thats what it is called) ,it opens up when the car goes from high revs to low as you describe. Someone will have to confirm this though as I might be remembering things wrong. I'll have a look in the manual later and get back to you. Dave
