Hi Guys,

Back again. Had to make a new membership becuase my old one is really screwed up.

I just wanted to let you know that in relation to the topic of discussion that generated so many posts before, my R34 GTT also managed to finally lock into 3rd gear.

Rather than re-wire Solenoid B, which is one of the designated fault sources for this problem, I managed to source a Nissan shift solenoid kit from Nissan Australia. Specifically, from their dealership at Burwood.

The cost.................$449.

The install...............$350.

The car now runs as it should.

I will post the part number for the shift solenoid kit shortly.

Regards

Jim (TR34GT)

The part Number is: 319404AX05

Good to hear you got it sorted, it's damn annoying when it happens!

Hey 666DAN,

Thanks mate. It was a long process. Would you believe that it was only the guys in South Australia, MV Automatics, who had faith in the solenoid re-wiring. I couldn't get anyone to re-wire where I live. The guys here had no experience in this regard. I can thoroughly recommend getting hold of the full solenoid kit though. You were right. It was the solenoids after all. Glad I took the chance, as right up to the end, my autotrans (specialists) could not read the fault code, even when I brought the car to them with the fault still in place.

By the way, the $40 induction box we made still works a treat.

Watch this space for the answer to the negative camber adjustment on my car as well as a performance tyre at the right price.

Hope all is well. Regards

Thanks for the follow up mate.. it's great when members are able to come back and tell us how they went.

Hey Howie.

Just wanted to let you know that the part number mentioned was definitely right.

The wrong part number was ordered twice yb different autotrans specialists, until I found the right people to speak to at Nissan.

Hope all is well, and the white R34 in the pic looks great.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
