central locking not even working. ect ect.

the starter motor isnt even clicking.

it seems like a totally flat battery, but i tried jump starting it and still got nothing. checked the conections. checked all the fuses in the boot, in the cabin, and also in the engine bay but all fuses are ok including the main fuse in the boot.

The other battery i tried is excellent i use it in my other car no probs. ive checked all the fuses including the main fuse.

Gloof i do have an immobiliser, if this is at fault could this stop power to everything though?

i found the problem..............

i must have left the interior light on, the night before it died which ment the battery was totally dead. then in the morning i had nothing tried to jump start it after checking all the fuses and it wouldn't even jump start so i continued asuming the problem was in the car...........

later with the multimeter in my hands i desided to check the jumper leads i was using for continuity. and to my surprise it turns out they where stuffed for some reason they whern't carrying the current??????? they where brand new antizap leads???????

so i tried a different older pair of jumper leads and it started...

end of drama....

cheap jumper leads are worth their weight in packing foam. :D the el cheapo chinese ones have the cable crimped onto the ends through the insulation and generaly are open circuit. either buy decent leads or cut the clamps off, bare back the jumper cables and solder them onto the clamps.

usually even if they do make contact the actual wire is so small theyb wont pass enough current to start a car without glowing red hot and melting all the insulation off them :P

Al

i know i should have just replaced it (now)

but i thought i had a serious prob. any way my mistake.

secoh

the jumperleads i was using where (looked) like very good quality. they are the anti zap ones 400amp from a good spare parts dealer. must have just been a dud set.

    • A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.
    • Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.
    • Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.
    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that
