  1. Hi guys building a track car atm. Its a 32 with RB20det. I have no rear wiring harnes as to save money and time i have wired all the lights in myself. Now the drama i have is that ive wired the fuel pump through an iso switch and a rocket switch on the custom center switch panel i have, which in turn switches a relay in the boot to start pump. But it runs the pump as soon as the rocket switch is turned on and continues to run even with car not running. To stop pump i just have to close the rocket switch. I require someone to let me know which ecu feeed can i use to switch the relay on in the boot to then run the fuel pump only when the engine is running. I have an ecu pin out list and have tried the original Fuel pump relay wire (no volts at all) and thats it. The rest of the car has standard 32 gtst wiring looms its only the rear half thats different. And standard ECU.
  2. Hi guys, this weekend a wombat decided to pop up on the road and smash up my front bumper completely. So now I'm just looking for the exact lip to put onto the new bumper I have just put on. As attached, the picture shows the lip I'm referring to. It's just the small part to put on top of the original bumper. If anyone knows what it's called, selling one or where to look to get one, please pm me! Thanks

  6. Hey Sau's So over the long weekend i had picked up another GTR R32 for a good price... i thought it would be a good idea just to drive around in a std GTR until mine was finished with my court proceedings.. so after owning the car for 26hours the motor decided to let go on me my misses was taking it for a drive at the time when the car sounded like it let something go and just turned off.. after trying to get the car to start again i checked the oil (i know i should of checked this before) but i was planning on servicing the car the next day before driving it again.. i had notice it was low now i have no idea what could be wrong but i assume the worst either the timing belts gone or its spun a bearing.. i know you can't tell what wrong without looking at it but i want peoples thoughts on what is the cheapest way to get this car going again as i dont want to be stuck with 2 GTR's that dont work should i bother gettting it looked at or fine a replacement motor???
  7. Can someone tell me whether this is the stock front bar or not, i read an article about the car but i cant find a bar to match, cheers.
  8. Hks 2530's running 20 psi. Can't get my car to boost cleanly throughout the gears , and i have no idea why. When i run 16 psi or 1 bar, no problems. As soon as I flick my eboost street to my other setting (20psi) it does this... Does anyone have any ideas or solutions? Workshop is telling me that i need new actuators... All pipes are tight, no leaks whatsoever. Runs like a champ on 16psi, but cant get it to run properly or boost properly on 20 psi. Keeps giving me that flick back Any feedback or advice greatly appreciated. Cheers
  9. Hey everyone, I am currently doing a r32.4 build, but just doing the front end conversion, Im just wondering if anyone has done this before as I need some advice. Ive got my self the front end of the body kit, veilside 34 gtr bonnet, 34 xenon headlights and nismo side indicators.. all i have to get now is the front indicators, but the problem I have at the moment is I dont really know how to hook up the indicators etc. Do I have to get my hands on a 34 indicator loom or something.. any advice will be appreciated if people are interested in this thread I willl upload pictures etc as time goes on.
  10. I Drive a 1998 Nissan Skyline R34 25-GT (import), I had it in the shed for 3 months then went to start it up and the battery is dead, which figures lol but after i jump started it, it started to have an engine chug sound, it does it in neutral, park, and while driving, it sounds like the fuel pump, but would like verification and details on which and where to buy.
  11. Hi guys, Have had this issue with my R34 N/A sedan for a little while now. Probably about 3 months ago, whenever i would flick to high beams, my cd player would turn off and then turn back on. My speedo backlights would also flicker. I had my battery tested (which was the same battery which came with it from Japan), and was told it was not performing well, and purchased another. I believe that my alternator was also tested at this stage, and came up fine. A few weeks later, I had the same issue. So, I popped the bonnet and had a look at the battery terminals, just out of curiosity. The positive terminal appeared very SLIGHTLY loose, so i tightened it, and also cleaned it up a bit. Problems were gone, and no issues for another 2-3 months. Until tonight. Driving home, popped high beams on, and boom, headunit goes off, backlights flicker, and even the A/T light is glowing at me. I was pretty spooked by the A/T light, as I hadnt had this issue before. Anyway, I arrived at my home, and the light was off, and my high beams no longer affected any other components in my car. (I had been driving for 30 minutes - discovering the issue again in the meantime) I have these Ebay LED's in my parkers. And the rest of my headlights are standard Xenons. My headunit was also professionally installed. Can anybody lend any thoughts? Thanks!
  12. im in bendigo and just bought an r34 gt-t, when i took it in for a roadworthy they picked on the carbon fibre bonnet, does anyone in central vic have a spare one i could borrow or buy for the roadworthy? it would be a great help! i also need the front bar that sits behind the grill as mines been hacked up to fit a bigger intercooler
  13. Hey everyone i bought some side skirts for my R33 coupe today and i hadn't realised that my car has no holes for the clips to go into. (the 4 or so holes under the doors) i just had a few questions, Is this standard for all GTS models? Can i get it done cheap at a body shop? If not, tips on how to do it myself? And where to buy more clips and side skirt seals? thanks in advance and again, sorry if its a stupid thing to ask! Cheers
  14. Hey All Looking for some advice on how to go about reshimming the LSD for my RB25, and also looking for some info on front and rear strut braces. So the Hicas is disconnected and I'm wanting to know what else I need to do to complete the mod? I'm also rebushing the whole rear support frame for diff as it's seen better days :S So could use some tips regarding what's the best to go with. If anyone's done this or wants to throw me some advice on how to go about any of these tasks let me know, would be super grateful! Going over my car and decided to remove cooler pipes on my Blitz front mount to check oil build up and noticed the front bar had rubbed a hole into the pipe itself, I slid a silicone joiner over the hole in order to patch it up. Wondering if this is an okay solution, because the pipes come with the intercooler kit and weren't exactly cheap haha Anyways to clean oil from intercooler system? Or is that not something I should worry too much about? Would like to relocate igniter from coil pack cover...any suggestions? Advice would be appreciated
  15. Firstly Hi all, I have my project C33 laurel which was running the RD28 motor doing a 25DET conversion. Pertty much everything is done except the wiring, I have changed fuse box loom (from RB20E A31 cefiro) and cabin/dash loom (from RB20E C33 laurel). I have mannaged to get power to the dash and interior (windows, lights, heaters etc) but not getting any power to my ECU. Anyone able to help or guide as to what i may possibly doing wrong? cheers
  16. Sorry if this is in the wrong spot,but I am trying to fit a aftermarket taco,and can find a the single wire for the RPM, I can get the guage to light up and stuff but just no single, I have tried the wires front the ECU and on the back of the cluster, any ideas?
  17. Fellow SAUers, I am currently in the process of upgrading my brakes, and in doing so, i am using larger diameter rotors front and rear. My dilema is, in using a larger rotor on the rear, i need to remove the covering plate that sits behind the rear rotor. Can anyone tell me how to remove this? Do i need to remove the rear hub to get to it? Any help would be appreciated. Cheers, Damo.
  18. Hey all, New to the SAU forum here. I've recently purchased a 1989 r32gts (nonturbo) auto for $2k Pretty stock except the usual, pod filter exhaust, wheels.. it seem like the sump is f**ked in my car (no way to tell other then it's been bent in by a jack i guess) and apparently you have to lift the engine out a little to be able to access the sump to remove it. if this is the case, i'll be wanting to remove the rb20 and replace it for a rb25, i have a mate who want the rb20 so no hassles getting rid of it. i was going to the swap regardless but if i have to replace the sump i was thinking of doing it sooner. i have seen all the threads with pretty much everything on how to do the swap,yet i wouldn't be comforrtable doing it myself as i have very little mechanical knowledge, ( I'm learning!) if there is anyone on here who can inform me on how much a rb25de would cost, and also if there is anyone on here who would be able to help with the conversion that would be great. it'll most likely be done on my driveway lol. Please leave me with some replys! Thanks guys.
  19. A couple months ago I noticed my r33 gtst hicas ball joints were flogged but neglected the issue. I recently had a full wheel alignment done and the rear end is still snaking under acceleration and deceleration, so i decided I'd better have a closer look at the problem. As expected the balljoint are creating play and they need to be replaced asap. I've had a solid look on the net for the best upgrade without buying a whole hicas lockout system and not much luck. I have a lock bar already and i dont want to tamper with the aligment since i just paid for one. Does anyone know where i can get solid bushes to replace the worn ball joints or what the best upgrade would be. this is the only option i have found so far - http://www.jdmgarageuk.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=843. I've herd rubber(non solid bushes) would create unwanted play...

  22. Hey guys, So I've recently resprayed my r32 from Acrylic green/clear to Acrylic metallic black/clear and I'm now looking at cutting it back and polishing it up to bring out a nice reflection and the metallic flecks alittle more. First off I'd like to say that this was my first time attempting painting anything that large before and also my first time using a compressor and gun for the job. The car was painted in a pop up car port so it was out of the whether, but obviously was not a booth job either. And there is a fair amount of orange peel in the paint and it probably wasn't applied the greatest due to trying to get the gun to spray correctly. I've now started sanding back the car with first 1500, then 2000 grit paper, then using an orbital polisher at around 1000 rpm with wool pad and a cut and polish compound to bring out the shine. I'm noticing this is leaving some swirl scratches and is also not quite removing all the 2000 grit scratches either and isn't quite giving me the shine that paint should. I'm wondering if anybody could help me out here in possibly giving some advice as to what products I should be using, maybe some tips and tricks as to the method and just some decent information from somebody thats worked with acrylic lacquer before. I can post up pictures of products I'm using and how the paint is looking too if need be. Any help would be appreciated fellas
  23. Weird squeal/screech noise when I hit high rpm/boost in my rb25det neo r34 nissan skyline. Anyone know what this could be? turbo? boost leak? Found here: Cheers.
