was pretty happy with the economy of my car today 608Km's out of a tank. Would have been better if the ultimate was $160+ in the middle of nowhere

down side is the car is pinging due to the crappy unleaded that went into it. I think i need to flush it out and run some good stuff in there now i'm back in civilization :cool:

bit sad that my 33 is my daily and i have done 26000Km's over the past 3 years and have done 2000 in the last 4 days

i know that feeling mine is daily driver aswell thats alot of kms how did it go in the heat

yeah that nearly 1/5th of my annual Km's and i might be heading up to QLD in the next week or so and that'll add a lot more

pretty well, i flushed the oil and radiator ect before i left so i wasn't to worried.

It might need a wheel alignment as it pulls to the left when the wheel is straight :cool: have to wait to i get a new job

i noticed it on the way over, it could have been doing it a while i just don't drive enough to notice (long straight roads anyway) not that fun when i went to grab a drink and the car starts to drift off the road when it should be driving straight.

not the most comfortable seats for long drives

Yeah right, :cheers: unless the height of the mount is actually different to standard nissan.... the engine would be in the same place no matter what.

Dont make sense though, would mean different gearbox mount etc....

Inless its actually shaped different to clear lines or something. I dont own a 33, so Im trying to use logic here LOL.

Edited by R31 drift pig
r the gtr seats any better to sit in does anyone know." 4 long drives that is"

Yeah there nice...I dont mind them and sat in one for 6hrs from Sydney to Shepparton ;) But I was driving I guess you would get fidgety if a passenger ;)

    • 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 😡
