Hi Govich I have a 1996 R33 GTS-t manual modified. I know you posted this a long time ago so I hope you are still online. I am having a similar problem however I don't have an A/T fuse. To give some history I left the car sitting for a long time and the fuel pump seized (Walbro) and I have it earthed properly bypassing the FPCM etc. When I found it was seized I tried fixing it by pouring rust remover in it which cleaned the rust out and that got it moving slightly so I plugged it in for 30 seconds and tapped it but it wasn't working so I removed it but noticed it was warm. I then decided to check if there was power to the pump but there isn't. I have traced it back to the trigger wire from the FPCM ie if I earth that wire I get power to the pump. I can't figure out why it isn't triggering but Is it viable to just earth that wire from the FPCM so that the pump will run continuous as soon as the ignition is turned on?

Wow thats a big drive.. yes I only had 1 problem and it wasn't a Skyline part! Have moved permanently... started Autoworx (RAW importer) in Perth in 1999 and sold this year... of course kept an R34 (for my wife) and my R33 with lots of goodies.. will be doing the Suncoast Rally this year and other things I hear about.... best cars in the world

OK worked it out now..thanks for your help.....

thanks for the reply but that will only load a photo on your personal profile when someme clicks on it.. I mean the one like you have.. the McLaren logo.. how did you load that?

How do you add a photo to a post on the left hand side with all your other personal info? I have stuffed around for hours and still can't figure it out.. can anyone help?

All sorted out.. I got onto Xtreme Motorsports at 17 Ingham Rd in Townsville and they were great. Not only did they have an R33 castor rod but they also fitted it for me for only $75 all up! So many thanks to those who responded to my post and special thanks to Extreme Motorsports for their help. Make sure you go and see them for parts or just a chat if you are ever in Townsville. Check out their very good website at http://www.x-trememotorsport.com/index.html Now onto Mission Beach! Paul

thanks for the replies guys...... my mobile # is 0408 924 089.

I know that this is off topic but I am in a bit of a spot... I have driven my R34 turbo sedan from Perth over the top and am in Townsville QLD on my way to Mission Beach. Coming out of Mt Isa the R34 was pulling to the right under brakes quite severely. After having a look I found that my after market right hand adjustable castor rod had snapped at the adjustment nut... it is quite OK to drive but can be dangerous under heavy braking so I would prefer to fix it before continuing on to Mission Beach.. the questions is.. does anyone in Townsville know here I can buy a factory castor rod? I am pretty sure that castor rods are the same for 180SX/Silvia, R32/33/34 and 300ZX although it is possible that lengths may vary slightly but I would appreciate anyone based in Townsville letting me know if there is a local import wrecker or anyone wrecking a Nissan import privately....
