Who had the wheels off last? They could have just forgotten to tighten one of the nuts and its come off?

Nah... its much more fun to hate those thieving bastards :)

it wasnt loose, i checked them after i bought the car, so they were all tight, plus like i said i didnt drive the car for 3 days and it went missing before i drove it again.... anyways im over it so pissed off but need to just replace it

that blows. I cant see why someone or even how they would steal one wheel nut?! I mean they'd need to be carying a bar and 19mm socket and then why stop at one? whay not take em all, or take 4 off each wheel? I reckon it just fell off.

I will try and see if I can get one nut for you.

hmm wen are u getting the others? and are ur old ones scratched up heaps?

I think they should be only a week away???

Dont think they are scratched up??? Im going to the car on Saturday.... Il have a look.. but if you need one straight away il just grab one off mine as its not going anywhere for a couple of weeks anyhow!

Yours are the short ones yeah???

thansk rich.... let me know if u find :)

yeh i was thinking the same, but like i have said it wasnt driven.

i mean it got washed on saturday, and all nuts were there, then monday i noticed it, and didnt drive the car since the saturday

hmm not sure if they are short..

never had them before so i dont know the diff, but they look like they are longer then normal short stubby nuts..

They look like the short ones in the photo.... they are about ummm few cms long I guess??? The longer ones actually stick out from the rims a good few cms once they are tightened....

Il grab one off the car when head there unless your around Penrith at all then you could possibly stop at the workshop and take on off yourself a bit earlier??

I reckon there could be two reasons you're missing a nut

- Someone just wanted to be a dick and stole 1 nut

- Someone was trying to steal your wheels but was interrupted and left quickly.

yeh i was thinking those, but also one more:

-some loser was missing one and decided he'd take one of mine... (doubt it tho)

Kids these days....

When I was a kid I used to see a nice car and stop and stare - not throw eggs at it...

We need to put up a Youtube video of the public castration of a little egg throwing, rays wheel nut stealing bastard! That'll teach em! :)

    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi
