Recently today my R34 had a problem which was found out due to the Immobilizer system. the car would not start due to the immobilizer not deactivating so i would be able to start my car. had to call up RACV and they had to power the starter motor manually for it to start up so i could drive it home and as soon as i were to turn it off i cannot turn it back on until i get the immobilizer fixed. would anyone happen to know a good auto electrician or someone with knowledge on immobilizers to give me any contact details on trying to fix this immobilizer problem or to just basically take it out?

Cheers

+1. or if you can get it going see stylyn in boronia and let them sort it out.

I got it towed back yesterday to the dealer SEI motors where i bought it from. a mechanic there spent all day today looking and checking stuff with it and they rung me at 5.30pm when they were closing saying that they could not find the problem with it why it would not start. so not exactly sure the problem. there electrician is checking it tomorrow to see if he can find any problems otherwise im not sure why my car wont start. when you try to it doesnt even try you just hear a clicking noise which sounds like its coming from the starter motor. the only way to start it temporarily was using this device RACV supplied which pwoered the starter motor manually but the car wasnt running to its normal potential. couldnt go over 3k revs and acceraltion was very very slow. took about 10 seconds to get to 60 lol.. so yeah. am not quiet sure what can be done at this point in time.

IF anyone has heard of problem like this before or something similiar please feel free to let me know

Thanks

    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
