Excellent video. We appreciate you filming this process as it will help others with their projects. The fact that you have been at it for a few years is amazing. Everything on the car will be rebuilt. Looking forward to the next video.
Good tutorial, will give it a go now. Thank you sir. Your vids are very useful and well explained. 👌 I'm an ex z32 guy myself but now balls deep in that bnr32 world, but it's all the same shit. Thanks brother. 👊
Mine had the spring but not small ball bearing so the loose lever ruin the threads. Later assembling the two bolts,apron holders gave me a little work for fixing in right position.
Excellent work as always Trev, love that here we repair instead of replace, when possible. Thank you for the in-depth view on the repair process, keep it coming.
Nice... My question this week is: How come I never see a torque wrench being used in a standard vehicle repair shop, eg, when installing a sump plug, brake callipers etc?
Hi Peter, I kinda get it, you do get a "feel" for stuff like that & when your just trying to get stuff out the door its one of the first things that seems to fall by the way side. Doesn't make it right though, particularly with safety critical stuff like brakes as you mentioned. Cheers Mate.
In Canada, I am having some issues with air flow. I am adding the under shroud from z1, but have my air filters blocking the condenser. How did all that ducting work?
G'day Mate, due to this project being yet to be finished I can't help with any real world data. I have done pretty much the same thing with my TT G37 & it was a massive improvement. Its in my other youtube videos somewhere. Cheers Mate.
Good stuff. I mucked up the short tube on the rack. Trying to source another one. Thought I could be smarter than a "brake line" fitting. Ha And I had a good laugh with you on the gasket.
Thankyou Sir, dammit, I have been chasing a different part number & have ordered a couple. Ah well, may even end up being the same seal, from Nissan but a different number. Cheers Mate.
If you haven't moved the crank position & have realigned your marks, there is no need & no point to putting it at TDC. Trust your work..... If you can't, this level of work is not for you.
What about the little shelf for your mates to put their beer down on just incase they have to steady themselves if there is a nasty wasp or something that may make them a bit unsteady on their feet?
Came across your video the other day and a great visual. Had a question about the system you're using. I'm using the Spal relay harness system, and the wires are different color. Been struggling where to connect everything. To the fuel pump harness. If that makes sense. Anything would help. Thank you.
G'day Eric, no, no one at all drinks Fosters in Australia, I'm not sure they even sell it here anymore. It was never even slightly popular, all just an advertising campaign for the US. Be like telling us in Australia you guys all drink Bud Light.Lol.
As always, another thorough video and great explanation of how to complete these steps. Oh, and great advice on how to take care of your shaft. It is a very sensitive piece of equipment. Ha!
Top job Trev. Going with know how and gut feeling has saved you and maybe a lot of other people some major grief. Then again you might be up shit creek if it was a Chinese manual
Absolute legend! A video on this has been needed for many years! Thank You! My buddy Eric (who did the R35 brake booster/MC mod) needs to get this done!
Interesting... What's the purpose of the very fine shim type washer ie the one no longer in production? Why not a single part machined to the correct dimension?
You made this exactly 4 weeks 2 short. Just put my rebuilt rack back into the car. I used a seal kit from a aftermarket supplier. Ill let you know how it goes.
I’ve been contemplating converting my drill press until I saw this vid. Thanks for convincing me NOT to do this unless I was willing to put much more of my time and money than I realized
Mate you're a Godsend. I've had the exact same problem since buying this saw. Couldn't work out WTF was going on with it. I'll go grab one from your website right now. Thanks so much for this.👍👍👍
Pleasure Mate, yes it took me ages to work it out, I was even thinking about getting rid of it. So glad I didn't. Cheers. Oh and thanks for the purchase.
I'll have to grab one as well, I thought it was an operator error for me... The challenge I've got with mine is the vise cracked and after attempting to weld it back it's no longer square.
Been running the bigger BS6V, haven't cut stainless but done 50+ cuts on RHS without issue, 50x50x3 up to 150x50x4 . Works great for a neat and accurate angled cut on wood table+chair legs too ;) Was told to only run bimetal blades in it as it runs without cooling, anecdotal only. I'm still on the original blade and haven't tried my bimetal spare blade as of yet. Perhaps I should save that one for cutting stainless and use their standard blades?
G'day Mate, if it were me i'd stick with the Carbon Blade you're currently running. Cooling has only been an issue when cutting solid sections. From my understanding the BS6V isn't as prone to the Blade Fatigue problems experienced with the BS5V. Thanks for the comment. Cheers.
@@TheAussieShed Indeed, the (longer) blade is barely warm to the touch after cutting a large RHS section. I also ran the blade in slow, and generally cut on the slow side. I'm not a machinist and have not had reason to cut any large solid sections, just a few shafts <25mm. The resulting dry chips are very easy to clean up with a magnetic wand unlike my mate's unit fitted with coolant. I use the swivel function regularly, an unexpected bonus is that this saw cuts small wood projects around the shop so much neater, faster, quieter and safer than the mitre saw and is faster to set up. Only major downside is it can't be modified to run vertical like some of the cheaper bandsaws. Can the smaller BS5V do this?
