G'day iv got some drama's with my 93 R33 GTS-T

what happend:

driving along, engine made a funny scraping noise then died

tried to start it but it woundn't even turn over...(just clunked once) sounded like a dead battery sorta, so i tried to jump start it with my GTR but no luck.

anyways, i tried to manualy turn the engine over but it was very hard, managed to get a good hold on it and i could only move it one way, i noticed every time i moved the pistons the car would start to wind over (when i turned the key) so i manualy turned the engine over for about 2mins and then tried to start it again and it fired and now runs, BUT it sounds like its running on 5cyl or less and there is a VERY LOUD banging clunking noise comming from the front of the engine (its very very bad) engine sounds like its f**ked all together.

the car remains stock apart from a high flowed turbo, exhaust, fmic. the engine is only touched when a service is due.

(also the engine has a noisey lifter at the rear of the motor) - but now cant hear it from the knocking noise..lol

any help appreciated very much.

thank you.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.

      Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
