Thats the drivers side. Maybe because there is more pressure in bank two due to the return flow regulator being on that side (I think it is)?

Thats my 2c!

But that would not explane why it threw up the fault code would it?

There is only one O2 sensor on the turbo, bank one. It is seeing a lean condition and can't add enough fuel to compensate.

If the o2 sensor was buggered it could cause this along with bad fuel economy, it needs to be checked for oscillation, otherwise you should do as Cam mentioned and check the filter and fuel pump.

After doing some googling some other things that popped up with this code were:

MAF, vac leak, PCV and the fuel filter as Cam said.

Scotty:

Fuel economy has been ok, well as good an an M35 can be. Have not seen a spike as such.

When you mention the O2 sensor do you mean the one on the dump yes? If it was this would it not effect both banks not just throw up an error on bank 1?

FYI: The issue came about from normal driving conditions in peak hour, not giving it much stick at all. When I got home I checked the fault code and then cleared it, ran the car for 5-10 min and it has yet to come backl.

Cheers.

There is only one o2 sensor (the one in the dump), bank one is it's name. The 3.5's have bank one and two as they run twin o2 sensors. If it doesn't come back you may be fine.

O2 sensors only have an 80,000k life so there is a good chance it needs changing anyway.

Genuine.

Have the books and also the de-reg papers that show the kms every time it was serviced and everytime it was registered. When I received it the kms were only at 29XXX.

Yeah I paid a bit more for it but got a very clean car, inside and out. I have seen other M35's, most other M35's I have seen have very dirty under carriage and engine bays. This is so clean you could eat off any surface, the previous owner must of only drove it once in a blue moon.

Cool, good to hear. Mine had genuine 59k on it with de reg paper and also was very clean under the car and engine bay. Only problem I found was a chocolate milk stain on the back seat from kids. When I removed the rear seat I found little girls hair clips and collector cards, so was deffinately the family wagon.

Hi everyone

a +38 offset will sit inside an ARX more? 18x8

if will, can I run bolt on spaces to make it sit flash?

The spacers you buy will have to be custom if the wheels you are fitting are stock. This is due to the hub centering ring on the hub and groove in the wheel being the same. Normally when running a bolt on spacer you are using aftermarket wheels which have a larger bore and that's what off the shelf spacers centering hub on the wheel side will allow for.

Hope that makes sence...

Actually, most of the off the shelf spacers will have both hub centering bore/rings the same size.

If you go different hub bore size on new wheels; it's normally up to you.

The thinnest custom spacer I've ever machined for a Nissan with hub centering rings on the outside, and matching bores on the inside is 8mm; anything below that, and the centering ring on the outside has no material behind it.

I've never seen an off the shelf spacer with centering bore/rings thinner than 10mm, so Rafael should be ok.

Could you please point me in the direction of these as most places I've been to in Adelaide only stock ones with a 66.1 inner but a 73.1 or other outer meaning you can't space out stock wheels.

    • The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.
    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using. 
    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
