LOL... Farken R33, money vortex. I know the feeling, some how at night your brain keeps telling you to spend more money on it for no reason.

You going to All Jap Day? 

 

Also there is merit to @BK's post, however might not apply to Nismo clutches out of the box.

For context, my current shitbox once upon a time also ran a Nismo slave, paired with an NPC 10" carbotic. Long story short, I needed a new clutch and was too lazy to do it myself againn so I got Western Clutch in St Marys to supply and fit a new clutch.

When Scott at Western Clutch supplied and fitted his modified Xtreme ceramic clutch (bends the clutch puks forward to allow gentle engagement and also driveability at low speed) he advised an OEM slave to be installed to allow the clutch to fully disengage as the Nismo slave has a reduced range of motion. 

The same clutch is still in my car (9 years old), been through 3x motors and seen power from stock all the way to 438kW, albeit it is starting to slip if you don't let it fully engage before hitting the fun pedal.

haha nice, some faith mine will still hold up for a few more track days.

It grinds 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th if I try and shift over 7k rpm, hence you see my track videos I'm fully granny shifting LOL

correct i have ducted cold air straight to two 40mm pod filters . we tested on a dyno airbox on and off and not difference so 0 restriction 

Nice. Any chance you have some pics? I’m keen to try get my stock one in for some more OEM looks..

ill have a look at some old pics . just give me a few days ... i think i may have posted stuff on this topic 

Thanks. I did initially look back (I think I went back 10 pages) but I just found it on page 15.

cheers

never been do they do mid week track days..

They sure do, great for when you need to chuck a sickie 😅

 

You should definitely give the beast a squirt on the track, great to enjoy the car

    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
