R33 Indicator Problems

Hey sorry if this have been covered but i cant find it if it has.

I have a S1 r33 gts-t and recently the indicators have been playing up.

Example: I will indicate left, and the indicator comes on fine, then when I complete my turn/ lane change and it clicked back as it should. But up on the dash the arrow is still flashing, and it still flashes on the outside of the car. Usually I can "fix" it by indicating the other way for a second. This happens probably every second time i use the indicators and it only happens for the left one.

One time it just completely locked on the left, no flashing, nothing, just a solid arrow on the dash and the orange indicator on the outside was a solid orange light, even though I had physically placed the indicator switch in the center as it should be.

Can anyone help? Has this happened before or is my car just a one off thing?

Thanks

a short in the wiring somewhere check where wiring runs through firewall etc and make sure there are no bared bits and its not rubbing against metal.

could also be a faulty indicator stalk on the column

      Belt flex under throttle

      By drifter17a · Posted

      Hi all, I’ve just finished fitting the timing belt on my RB25, following the standard procedure: rotate the crank twice, release the tensioner, then tighten it down. The belt feels tight, and you can see that clearly in the picture below I’ve heard some people say it’s actually better for the belt to be slightly loose rather than too tight, as excessive tension can lead to snapping. So that’s in the back of my mind. What I’m seeing is this:  • At idle, the belt looks fine.  • But when cranking and especially when revving (around 3–4,000 RPM), there’s a momentary flap/flex or flicker in the belt, which I’ve tried to capture in the video. So my question is — based on what you see, is this slight belt movement something you’d consider normal, or am I just being OCD? Could this amount of movement cause sync issues? Or is it just a harmless bit of flex under load?   from what I know belt flap and flex is expected when crank spins up and pull cam with it Would appreciate any thoughts or similar experiences.     IMG_7656.mov IMG_7657.mov

      I've replaced the front brakes of my NA to 324 brembos and 350z calipers: i'm going for 225/40-18 up front and 245/35-18 in the back. I have Rays 7.5*19 ET35(225/35) in the front with 5mm spacers otherwise the calipers "lock up/ won't rotate". When i use the calculator i come up with 8*18 ET30 for 225/40...... but not sure i get problems with the calipers. Anyone riding around with 18 inch. that can confirm "that it'll fit"? In the back it's 7.5*9 ET30 (245/30) with the 5mm spacers, but there is no problem with the standard small brakes, so i want to take 8.5*18 ET25 (245/35).

      Glad to hear. If possible, get your tuner to check air's to make sure everything is still where it should be.

      The problem with FB/Insta/Reddit etc comments relating to cars is simple. You get to ask a question once, and get one round of replies. For things that can actually be answered in a few lines of text, once, it's fine. After 6 hours, your original question is lost to the void. There are no follow ups, additional questions, anything. No project car is ever such a simple list of questions to ask. You need discussion.
