How did the paint not stick in and around the V8 badge? It looked like you only did a big square around it and I was expecting a black rectangle all around the badge.
ive heard the stainless don't have anywhere near the same level of breathability (performance increase) do you have any actual test results to show the stainless ones increase the air flow ?
Hi there. Your instructions were great. I ordered the Maxpeedingrods last Friday and it arrived the following Tuesday. That was quick. Everything about this heater when I unboxed it spells 'quality'. I am very impressed. Plan to fit it tomorrow. Can you tell me what wrapping you used around your pump please? That is the only bit of missing information. Again, thank you.
Sounds great! I used plumbing foam, it’s a this dense squishy foam and I was very very generous with it. Wrapping it around and using thick cable ties to hold it to the pump.. then more layers. It’s been good and quite:)
Having some issues with sourcing this 'plumbing foam'. It seems that the plumbers and plumbing stores I have spoken to today don't know what it is. Plus I also enquired with Bunnings. All of these plumbers are only familiar with the black tubular foam that wraps around hot water service copper tubing OR the green foam that waps around PVC pipes before a concrete pour. It looks to me that you have 2 types of foam to cover the pump. A white sided piece of black foam that has come off a roll and that is fairly thin and it is wrapped around the pump a few times and then, followed with a much thicker white coloured foam that is wrapped up with cable ties. I am thinking the 'dense squishy foam' description should lead me to the plumbing foam you have suggested, but it isn't. Does the foam you used have a proper name and/or can you tell me the name of the retail outlet you used to source your foam? Many thanks. This has become a great mystery!!! Chaslie.
@chaslie the black tube foam is what I used. There were different thickness ones where I went and I got the thickest. The white foam I had there was very stiff thick packing foam.
Well presented mate, very clear explanation and no mumbling unlike some, mine is about to go in tomorrow so your video was useful to confirm some things for me, Yep cold aint it? two years on and in N.E Vic .
What’s your verdict on the trans now a couple years or so on mate? We’ve done 111,000km in about 2,5 years with our y62 and it’s twice had an auto transmission shop run a service through it. Reports have always come back the oil and filter in very good condition, no debris in the pan. We drive it daily, tow trailers, tow our camper, bit of bush, a lot of long drives and a lot of stop and start. It’s always gotten to about 40,000-50,000km and that flaring crap gets a bit erratic. The lad who runs the auto shop has driven it and noticed the same and never been of concern. He’s of the opinion Nissan has stuffed up with the software around the shift pressures and ability to relearn its shift points. It’s one of those things gets a bit erratics, behaves a bit lazy at times and maybe a bit agricultural they aren’t the smoothest shifting drivelines but it’s also never let us down
why do i get this message when i click one of your links above,? Warning: This URL is no longer available because it was created by a suspended account.
I understand this is an old video. But am I the only one who can't hear the difference between stock and Harrop? No-exhaust sounds like a monster though. I took mine out for a drive like that when the cats were removed for a cleaning, it's terrifying.
Very helpful video, so firstly thank you. I think my timer must be set, but didn't set it. I have only just installed the unit it's like yours in the video but I've had it for nearly 3 years. I never set the timer but I walked out to the van this morning and it was going but it wasn't warm, how do I turn it off the timer please mate, and why would it not be hot, does it need to be primed before start every time? Thank you
Im a Caterpillar Mechanic. The darkness in the Auto Trans Fluid is from the friction disc wear. This is normal. The Fluid will definitely need changing.
Beautiful, but sad as well to see that cars are allowed on this beautiful beach, hopefully one day they will be banned to the very top end of the sand dunes and not allowed to drive all over the beach at will.
How about wet braking on road? I heard people complain about km3s being like roller skates and that the razr mt was top for a mt on wet roads. That is my biggest safety priority when choosing a mt in the tropics.
Great vid. We have the same Y62 and I just watched your recovery point install vid to help me do mine. Thanks for that. We also don't run a bullbar, but I'd love to know what brand of nudge bar you run for your light bar as we need more lumens up front and that looks the goods. Cheers, dd
It's probably the most profitable bakery in South Australia because lots of people go there, doesn't mean it's the best. People often have low expectations and just like every other bakery its products are high carb, high sugar and totally unhealthy junk food when it comes down to it. And yes, in my opinion it's over rated......
