If the steering angle is incorrect, you will get an error code telling you that.

I have a stock wheel on my series II R33. I do get an error code telling me that my speed sensor is not present. I have done this diag on several other R33's with great sucess....

I don't always get the car to wiggle it's bum ( it does this the first 5 or 6 times that you put it into diag mode) as I believe that you may need to reset the ECU after several attempts....... As everytime I try to put it into diag mode now for the HICAS, it just shows up the error code (21 in my instance) pretty much straight away....

When I get a chance, I will re-set the ECU and see if that makes any difference :(

I've found out with one sensor that ECU doesn't always detect a slight fluctuation in voltage.

For example the voltage difference was roughly 0.02v from recommended voltage

for that sensor. Basically wasn't enough for ECU to detect sensor is faulty and

produce an error code. ECU thought everything was working properly.

Found this problem sensor by checking via volt meter at the sensors.

That's interesting about the 5-6 times.

seriously i dont understand why u guys dont just lock the f**king thing up. beats tearing ur hair out trying to find an electronic issue amongst all the crap.

but thats just me *shrugs*

It really helps turn in, and stability on sweeping corners. I am not using the car for drifting, so Id like to continue to use it. Really comes down to driver preference, And Id like to see how far I can excel with the Hicas. Ive driven Non hicas cars my whole life, And Im liking the technology.

Please dont whore this thread. Lets keep discussions on track.

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.

      By cosline · Posted

      Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
