OK, so...

rpm is out... what feels like red line is reading about 5000rpm. upon hittin the clutch the dial falls slowly.... rather then dramatically back to low rpm

speed is off... amid 60km/h traffic my speedo reads about 80km/h...

all other aux. gauges seem fine...

what should i do? what would be the cause?

trip to the auto eleco perhaps??

First:

I suspected that u probly damaged the shaft, while removing the needle.

try to remove them again, but this time Push the needles back slowly, and gently.

To test it, just turn up ur needle and see if it drop back to zero freely and slowly without any hesistation?

Second:

Could be the overlay is not made of good quality, it might be not as smooth as OEM, cause it to not moving freely.

and If u have Not calibrate ur speedo needle, then u should calibrate it. Turn the needle clockwise, adjust so that the needle siting at ZERO.

thats all i could help,

cheers,

darrien

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
