Sounds like you are having the same problem as my brother...

Ok...deal is...Lights will turn on, stereo will work, hazard lights etc....your battery just doesnt have enough charge to kick the motor over...your battery doesnt have enough charge to do this and needs replacing...

I'd say your security alarm is draining the battery to much and your alternator has shat itself again..

Chris

K thanks man.

So best bet is to get the altenator fixed again, grab a fresh battery again... and disconnect the alarm all together...

money money money, never ends.

SUP GUYS.

just throwing it out there if anyone is up for a cruise. it will be later down the line.

ATM i am just getting an idea of who wants to come-a number thang.

atm its looking as either a fri-sat-sun, day or night event, leaving it open to debate.

:):)

my mod update, i have a safcII and a 3" dump pipe with seperate wastegate screamer pipe VTA on the way: ETA= this week :)

i saw you drive past my house on the weekend christain. you car shines in the light lol do you wash it like every day?

Hey Blinky.....

I usually wash my car every Saturday to keep the paint in good condition. I am glad you think it looks nice. I believe the wax i use helps.

Cheers buddie.

Do you skid it? or is it auto

Nah mate... I follow the road rules.

Thanks

Hows it goin chris,

He has to look after his rep in the council :thumbsup:

You can still skid it, there is always willowbank.One day i'll join in a cruise when i get my next car hopefully soon,real soon.

I am yet to attend a Skid pan day...would be good to get an idea of how many people would like to attend such an event and i would organise a day up in Gympie...pretty sure i can hook this up.

Only looking for around 12 people or so....$90 each...but plenty of time this way...

Yeh man I would be down for Gympie Skin Pan, I never done it, would be awesome fun!

im going to one in first week of september. tis $30 entry but there is alot of ppl there (45-50 entries) for the day and you need either cams or aasa licence. Still a fun day though! :)

You dont need a cams licence or a aasa,who told you that ?.Have you ever been to one of these?

They told me that and they were needed the past 2 times i've competed. I've been going every 3mths for about 2yrs now.

Though if they have a special event, i'm fairly sure the extra cost of the day includes extra insurance or something and that the extra licence isn't need. you'd have to check that!

sup guys just thought i'de add a couple of mods that i have recently got.

this week i finally got my Apexi SAFC. and my new dump/screamer pipe with a seperate vta wastegate pipe. this coming tuesday the SAFC will be installed by autobarn.

and by the end of this week i will hopefully take the dump pipe to the muffler men to fit it. while doing this i will get a 3" H/F cat installed (only $30 extra).

so by next tuesday everything will be pimpin'

the only mods i have left to do is= TURBO/ TUNE-UP/FUEL PUMP &REGULATOR, twin/triple plate clutch with an OS Giken flywheel and nothing else. time to enjoy cruising in it :)

:):rofl:

Your mad getting any sort of controller installed at autobarn. do yourself a favour and get someone else to put it in for you.I know such a person who is very good with nissans here on the coast , but im prob to late to mention this to you.

yeah, it should be right. im getting cameron to do it.

i went ova with him exactly wat i wanted and, he has done it to an r33 before, has experience.

and will only cost $60.

also he will tune the safc for me( as good as possible without a dyno)

but if it doesnt work, ill give u a buzz :(:(

Yeah no worries. I know cameron but i guess he must have a few skills, ive seen some stuff fitted pretty rougly from autobarn's on the coast, thats why i suggested someone else.I wouldnt get him to tune unless you have air/ fuel gauge, just get it done on dyno safer that way .But anyway up to you.

yeah, i do have a af gauge, and i will only get him to tune in the settings, i have to find a place to dyno it, which is almost impossible on the coast. no good tuners here for a good prices.

B-Dog,

You should be ok with Cameron....He's not bad....If he cant do it, he will tell you...might take a while though...he sorta learns on the way...

Don't get it tuned at Autobahn....take it to a Dyno and get it done...more than happy to go with you..

Latest mod = Apexi Pod Filter, sounds like a V8 with a turbo...Psssssssst...wooooossh.... Big pimping...heaps more power...

Looking forward to the custom Allo box this weekend bro.. Need ur help.

Talk soon.

Chris

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
