Hi Ppl,

just recently had my r33 serviced, and noticed that the stock boost guage while the car is idle, sits about a quarter the way up the guage (between -7 and 0)...is this normal. I'm pretty sure it stayed at -7 before when idle?

Also, at around the same time, I took the car in for a wheel alignment because the rear tyres are wearing on the inside, but then was told that because it was IRS, that nothing could be done. Why would IRS effect camber??

cheers

How much has it been lowered?

mine only sits on about -9 on my E-01 on idle and -12 when off throttle cruising down a hill ...

Indicates a vacuum leak somewhere but my idle etc is smooth as and no stalling issues etc ???? think mine is due to some dodgy vacuum line plumbing when the FMIC was installed....

my mates 32 sits on -15 to -20 on idle.... which is on the -7 (and beyond) on the standard guage

    • Yes the gear for the R33/34 is different, it is red and has a different number of teeth. My part didn't come with that gear though, so I don't know how many teeth are on the red one. You'd have to reuse the 260RS/R33 gear, as long as it's not destroyed.   Haha, as unfortunate as that might be it was working fine for about the first 1500km I've had the car for now.
    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
