Ha ha yeah seen ya too...... boy what a bad time to go through town. PEAK HOUR

spotted a dark 33 - looked like a GTR, had sun in the eyes - plates SLY 033, on Newton rd this morning. I know an ex forum member used to have these plates, but his was a silver GTST

then a little further up the road on Darley spotted a nice resprayed 33 GTST in a maroon metallic, 400R rear bar and drift lip. looked very tidy

Followed a wine red 33 this morning from south road down doctors road, states road, wheatshief road and onto panatalinga road. Looked pretty much stock. Pulled away from us as we got onto panatalinga road.. Was about quarter to 7 this morning.

wine r33 near repat, cute chick driver

silver r34 with kit,no wing. behind me on expressway, gave wave... nothing !!

silver stag with GTR stickers in chrome on the front gaurds, on patalinga dude take those off !!!

bayside blue, kitted up R34 -32 kit maybe... quick glimps it looked converted but not sure ? on king william rd

parked next to a silver r33 .5 spoke wheels up in prospect, auto box = fail

R8 in town with daytime runners on.man someone buy one in another colour then silver

spotted a car like andrews new one in the wyatt st carpark , custom rego

black r33 4dr, normal spot passing my house

R31 passage booting it off wyatt st area clean car.

and a few others I CFR...lol

spotted a red 32 going up to windy point at about 10.25pm, a white 33 going past me while i was on the side of montacute road at about 10.40pm, then a silver 33 with a blue sticker on rear window and a cfs top on at blackwood BP at about 12.20am.

Yesterday about 5:30pm spotted a white 33, not sure if was GTR on south road heading south from sir don bradman.

Then as heading north spotted a silver 33 GTR, very clean, gave the driver a wave, got one back, dont think is on here.

dark blue or black r33 with huge cannon on it,, doing about 110 on the expressway ... she pulled up next to me on south rd ,, it was a older lady, late 40's or early 50's driving it... some spiky blond hairdoo. I was shocked !!! thought it was a kid from the quick glimpse of the hair/car from a distance..lol

she was so lucky, the laser motorbike was out a few K's up the road from her entrance...lol

Spotted a nice midnight purple 33 gtr on south road at Darlington.

Also a stock looking silver s2 stag on Panalatinga road about lunch time.

Followed a wine red 33 this morning from south road down doctors road, states road, wheatshief road and onto panatalinga road. Looked pretty much stock. Pulled away from us as we got onto panatalinga road.. Was about quarter to 7 this morning.

Possibly me?

    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • 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.
