I left a mates house lastnight in my 32 gtr giving it a bit up the street then was just cruising and the car like backfired and didnt feel right, but the lastweek or so iv had trouble with one of my coilpack connectors the clips broken and it doesnt clip on it just sits there so its been running on like 5cylinders then 6 so its been running like shit most the time, after it done the backfire wouldnt be suprised if it was the shaft comming threw the zorst as i dont have a cat felt like i shot something out the bak, i looked in the mirror into the cars behind me's headlights didnt see any smoke or anything, also looked down at that time and sore that the oil pressure guauge in the dash was at 0 and the red light on so i pulled over and tuned the car off and we towed it home, are these signs of turn failure or is it to do with the coilpack plug or a blow oilpump or something?? thanks

bang + no oil pressure + warning light = not good

if the guage just dropped to zero it could be the sender but if the light is coming on as well then thats bad

Yeh im thinking the same thing, i just looked down and it was on 0 and the light on it doesnt go off, i dont really wanna start it now either, do you think i should get it dropped off at a workshop and see what they rekon?.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2

      Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
