[/b] Hi Guys,

My name's Kylee...This my first post on this fourm....Just got rid of my Vl which i had for over three years and decided I needed somethin a little newer and a bit quiker. So I bought a 94 R33 GTST and was just wondering if anyone can give me the correct specs of this make (Inc kw's). I was also curious to know whether or not they come standard with LSD, I have been told many different answers. Also, just wanted to know what the HICAS light means, I know what it stands for but it keeps comin up after i have driven the car for a while. I have been told its nothin to worry about and someone even mentioned theirs stays on the whole time cos they have a non standard computer? Anyway, my car is pretty much standard and I just had it dynoed and it has 158kw's so i was curious to know how many kw's they came out with :(

they came with 184kw (manual gearbox). that is at the flywheel, not the wheels. any power figure quoted by a manufacturer is at the flywheel.

and yes they come standard with lsd, but there is 2 types of lsd. most have the standard viscous lsd. some have the active lsd.

should these questions have come before you bought the car?

No, because i would have bought the car anyway. I was just curious... having answered these questions before I bought the car would have been irrelavant. Knowing how many kw's they come standard with and if they have LSD would not have changed my mind about buying one.. things can always be changed on it anyway!

hi kylee,

um good question i was also after specs on mine stocko. I have simlar model to Yours. .. i found this in the forum. One of the guys here made it, (great work btw), check it out here. http://nissanskyline.6te.net/

got loads of info on skylines stock.. um i think they were 147rwkw stock btw.

cheers

Oh ps. Hicas light comming on. isnt normal. mine comes on occasionally, (hicas diagnostic mode) where light comes on and steering tightens.. but i disconnect battery for about 15 mins, then reconnect, and its ok. I think probably sensor issue. But No mechanics or performance shops ive been too so far can figure it out. so good luck with that one. but first think is to disconnect battery, hicas fuse, Hicas computer, and check all sensors. and clean connections. if u can find someone who knows how to troubleshoot the system properly. let me know. :P

187kw for series 2

and less than 184 for auto R33's

Thanks guys for the input.

The hicas still came on when i had the standard steering wheel though.

I now realise after looking at the other sites that i make the extra power at the wheels from standard because i have the exhaust upgrade. :)

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
