G'day

I have just bought a R32 GTR it has been sitting in the shed for a couple of months whilst I get a few small things fixed up for rego. I have been starting it and taking it for a quick blat up the road every couple of weeks. The battery in the car is dead so I have been jumpstaring it to get it started. Today I rolled the car down my driveway (slight hill) in reverse and dropped the clutch. The car backfired and it didn't start, I noticed a clicking noise coming from a black box near my abs unit (I have never heard this box click b4 in my life) So i turned the ignition off, then back on and the clicking went away.

I tried to jump it like I ususally do and It would backfire every 6 th revolution of the crank (I think). Then I put another battery in the car (which I know is good) and all It would do was backfire and want to start but it never did. I notice smoke coming from the 4th coil pack so i quickly turned the car off and disconnected the coilpack. One side of the coilpack had blown out and it was F*king hot as.

The car has 1/4 of a tank of fuel, refueled 2 weeks ago

It is getting fuel to the fuel rail

The compression of the car is within specs as I did that 2 weeks ago

It was getting spark to the front two coilpacks didn't check the other 4 as the 4th one shit its self.

Has anybody got any ideas as to what has happened to my car?

Possibly the Clicking noise Near your abs is one of your relays are stuffed that is in the black box attached to the ABS pump?? I have a problem with my ABS at the moment and the Red light in the Boot flashes saying it a ABS motor relay so i go out and replace the Relays (Expensive from Nissan so find one on here if ya can!!) and the Light still illuminates on the dash so got me F3cked on what it is!!! And when the turbo timer is running there is some constant clicking noise like a solenoid or some crap clickin but only does it when the turbo timer is running not with the key in the ignition!!!!!

With your other Problem i'm not sure what it is! Maybe try some new coils!

Hey, I still can't start the car I fried my ecu. I put another ecu in today but she still won't start. I have borrowed a coilpack and bought another wirring harness. I am going to replace all the coilpacks and I hope that fixes the problem because if not I am going to have to take it into an auto elect so they can have a look at it. Is it possible for a timig belt to jump a tooth, doing a clutch start? PLEASE ANYBODY GOT ANY IDEAS.

Hey, I still can't start the car. What I have done so far, I have replaced the

-coilpacks with super spark coilpacks

-spark plugs

-wiring ilum to the coilpacks

-brand new battery

-new battery terminals

-2nd hand computer.

I have also tried putting my crank angle sensor from my series 1 r33 and the ignition module onto my GTR. With no luck. Today I tried to retrieve fault codes from the computer but i kept getting code 55 which means every thing is fine. Obviously every thing is not fine. PLEASE CAN ANYBODY HELP

dude.....your guessing.....do you have spark at all plugs?check by unbolting the coils and stick plugs in them and watch them work....

do you have injector pulse???Check with a noid light....spark fuel air and bang bang it goes...theres no science behind it

Hi I feel like an idiot. I put my car on a trailer and took it to my local tuner, he found the problem it was my battery. I had put three different working batteries (tested each battery) and they couldn't start my car. Thanks for all those people who helped out.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
