Is there anyway to stop that auto-locking "feature"? today, i had the unfortunate result of that feature happen to me, basically my keys fell out of my pocket into the car when i reached in to get something, long story short, the car locked me out and i had to call racv to come and break into my car (took him about 2mins to break in :) ). Can that "feature" be disabled or do i just have to live with it?

nah it doesn't have an aftermarket alarm yet, and no the car wasn't moving at the time :) It seems to lock again after a few minutes of remote unlocking, i thought it might of been a nissan security feature... but if your cars dont do it then was there an optional security system or something that this might be linked to?

after thinking about it for awhile though im considering taping a spare key to i/c piping inside the front bumper, that way i wouldnt have to, the next time this happens i wont have to worry about somehow getting home, finding the other spare key, then getting back before someone else takes it. sane idea? :)

OK...we'll take note of tht :O

But seriously...should be a way to disable it...its a pain in the arse function...maybe post on the alarms and car audio section and wait for chris rogers to answer.

its a skyline thing as far as i know...

lol 2mins to break in... what a pro.

yeah he used a little air bag thing he pumps up near the top of door to create a small gap, then reaches in with a piece of wire to pull the lock back; it took him longer to fill out the paperwork.

im guessing its hard coded straight into the ecu... maybe actually installing an aftermarket alarm could override that feature.

My R33 series II is supposed to do the same thing (according to the manual) however is doesn't.....

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2

      Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
