Hi everyone i have a automatic skyline R33 GTST S1 i have run a A T Cooler instead of running it thought my radiatar because it was easier to by a manual radiatar than auto radiatar and i also run a PWR Transmission cooler just to make sure i was wondering what line i could get accurate tranmission temp reading because i think i have it in the wrong line cause it is on reading 110 D F which is about 44 D C and i have a funny feeling i have got the sender after the coolers instead of before the coolers.

cheers joe

are you only running it through one oil cooler? how big is the oil cooler? running it through the radiator is recommended because it removes a lot more heat than wat a little external one does. as for the temp sensor why dont u mount it in the actual sump. then you'll know wat the actual temp is in the box

hey mate thanx for the reply it is running though both coolers and they are both 19 row coolers and i thought about putting it in the sump of the box but i was told the sump would worp with the heat because you would have to weld a nut in so the sender could screw in.Wouldn't it leak if you didn't weld it

cheers joe

just silvier solder it in with a oxy an the solder rod. if ur careful an do it properly it doesnt affect the sump at all. 19 row coolers should be ok but you'll still have to watch how hot you get it

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
