Hey guys. I am having an issue with my GTR33 and I just cant seem to figure it out! Here is the info:

I have a 96 GTR33 and my rear end shakes at speeds exceeding 100kmph. Now it does this in all different gears not just gear 3 or gear 4. However, I do not feel the problem at all with speeds less than 100kmph. When the rear end shakes it feels like I hit a wet spot and lost traction for a second and then regained traction and instant later. It is not a violent shake, nor does it last long, it also happens intermittently. It happens every once in a while. Also it often happens when I am not in boost at all and I am also cruising at a constant speed. I am not necessarily stepping heavy onto the gas. I mean it feels EXACTLY like my rear wheels hit a water spot and slid a bit. Also if I recall correctly it tends to shake to the right. Any ideas on what my issue may be? I am going to the shop tomorrow for a tune up and would like to have something to tell them to check out. Thanks guys.

Well came back from the shop today and it appears that my HICAS motor is dead. It SEEMS that the rest of the system works however. So now I am in the market looking for a HICAS motor. (You know the little black thing in the back under the car in the middle of the rear axle?) If anyone has one, or knows where I can get one decently priced any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks a lot.

Also

I have indeed heard from quite a number of people that it would probably be best to just eliminate the HICAS system all together. However, I would really like to get it back up and running first. I at least want to experience the system and then make an informed decision for myself on wither I want to eliminate it or not.

Especially with the problem being something as simple as just the motor. That is just a few bolts and then im done. So while I do appreciate the opinion to remove the system all together, I would appreciate it even more if someone could either point me to where I can get a new HICAS motor or tell me that they had one available (im sure some of you do since you have locked your systems). Thanks a lot for the help!

was about to say HICAS before i read your post, woohoo 1 point for me.

put up a WTB thread, plenty of people have removed HICAS from their car, so you should get the motor cheap.... GTRgeoff is one of them, maybe you can pm him.

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
