Just a quick question, if pineapples are fitted to the rear of an r33, will it upset the rear camber at all. I'm having lots of problems setting up camber and tracking and i'm looking for the best setup at the best price. Also I live in Ireland and the roads are full of holes and sheep and goats,

I have got one set of rear camber bushings installed and set up. But i still have 1.26 degrees of negative camber and i'm wondering is it the pineapples that are causing the extreme camber. I have lowered the car only 40mm on springs.

1.26 neg is nothing to worry about. if you are having trouble with the car wanting to steer itself all over the road, then i would be looking at toe settings.

Seems a bit better since i got it tracked on ssaturday. What sort of toe settings would be suitable for a road gtst. Also does the car have to be running to set the tracking, (i now have a hicas light coming on).

Thanks for all the help so far.

Ah k, got ya. No the car does not have to be running when it's wheel aligned.

BUT I wouldn't be going to get a new alignment with faulty hicas. get all the suspension and steering working (inc hicas) properly before getting the alignment done.

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
