Ok, guys from Moscow approached me today. They have a "demo" version ready, now they need a brave person in Perth who's got a car DVD based Xanai unit (M35 Stagea or Skyline up to 2005). This gotta

No I haven't swapped them yet. I just looked up the overall heights of the Kumho and Bridgestone, then measured the tread depths and it works out that the bridgestone is 9-10mm shorter in height than the Kumho. Would it be fair to assume this is to much of difference and causing it?

Even then if just that one tyre is replaced with a new ku31 that tyre will be around 4mm taller than the other 3. Surely Nissan has given enough margin to allow for something like this.

As much as this sounds funny, the same size in two different brands are not exactly the same size. Try pumping up or letting down the bridgestone and see if it has any effect. That is not a permanant solution obviously, but might give you some evidence.

Well I borrowed a set of factory wheels to see if that fixes the 4WD light issue I'm having. It didn't fix it. The s/hand Bridgestone they gave me measured up at 12mm shorter overall height than the ku31, thought that would be the problem but not looking like it. I

'm going to try and sus out the relay and see if that the problem.

How can I check if there is a code to check? Is it read out of the ECU or the attesa control module?

If you get desperate Paul let me know, and we can swap over the relay. Worked with Mike's, he tried pumps and all sorts and I think it was relay in the end. As soon as I put his relay in my car, I had a fault light and 2WD.

I might take you up on that offer Ryan. I can't find one locally to try it so that would be great if we can swap to test.

When is a convenient time to try it?

I believe its based in the ABS computer, not the engine ECU. I don't know of a manual way to see error codes, but I'd just hook up my cipher cable/laptop if you were in sydney.

Maybe one of the general code reader that mechanics have can read ABS too?

faaaaaaaaark what a long thread, packed full of great information, thanks to all the contributors.

However I did not see the actual story on how to eliminate the problem I'm having, which is, How to get the wagon to do a burnout! I have TCS off. it will light up a little when I launch, but stand stills are shit.

Also what exactly does the wire cut for transmission lock up do, I am considering wiring the brake and trans' mods to the TCS switch, to make it the FUN switch.

NZJP have told me they will have the workshop mannual ready in 3 months, they advertise on Trademe the NZ trader site.

there are a few options to be able to do burnouts

1. sell your stagea and get a commodore

2. grow up and dont try to do burnouts in car designed for AWD

My car is RWD

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2

      Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
