Hey,

I currently had an accident in my R33 SERIES 2 skyline, resulting in both my airbags to pop out- both steering wheel for drivers and side passenger. I bought a new dash with airbags in them already the other day as the dash is cracked, and planning to install the dash in for the airbags and to reset the computer. However some guy was talking to me regarding the computer for the airbags and said that in accident the airbag computer blows up itself or stops working on impact of accident so therefore needs a new airbags computer- I WAS LIKE THATS CRAP LOLOL. Does anyone know know where the computer of the airbag is and if it only needs to be programmed or reset to get the new dash and airbags working like new.

thanks

john

yeah bro, i just changed them recently on a car.

its under the centre console behind the hand brake, take it off, unplug it and get a second hand one from wreckers, make sure it is off a series 2 though with dual air bags, plug it back in and goto nissan or a good mechanic with the computer to plug into ur car and reset the airbag light..

air bag computer should not pay more then $150 for it, and to reset the light ur looking about 30 - 50 depending who you know !! good luck

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
