Dude, sounds like you got a bum deal when you bought your skyline. Nobody has this many problems.....

except awesome.. hrmm makes me wonder if luckiee = Awesome (user name not him personally)

Haha, yeah haven't seen him post for a while....... :)

But anyway, what makes you think that water would affect your steering luckiee? I'm not having a go, i was just wondering what your thoughts were.

I'm probably with WYTSKY on that aftermarket wheels might scrape on something when doing a full lock turn..... might be hitting your suspension or front guard...

if its a gtr or gts-4 ive found that crap quality front tyres lose grip and because they are full locked/almost full locked they shudder.

It used to happen all the time in my gts-4 when it rained (round abouts and uturns) I was running sava intensa front tyres.

never ever had a problem with mine, and Ive had a few poor man's tyres..... and I have a 4wd controller to set how much percentage of power to front and rear and still no problems....

luckie, do u have a gts4?

i was doing 2 u turns today.. and it made a KRRR noise.. idont know what it was.. but it was when it was full steered right..it was raining today so it could be that

then i tried again and it didnt happen.. anyone know what it is?

what sort of car is it?

AWD or RWD?

it could be a no# of things..... CV joint if its a front wheel or some AWDs

could be debris & needing greese in the rack & pinion

or it could be rubbing of tires to the guards or the mud guard.....but whats "krrrR"

is it a high pitch metal creaking sound? a rubbery grinding sound?

you need to be more specific with the sound cause we cant hear it..

its just like metal creaking sound. its like "KR" for half a second.. i went to the mechanic he sed its normal o_O and my cars gts-t 96 series 2.. its RWD..

yeah i know what your talking about........a loud high pitch *CRUNK* sound whilst doing a U-turn or something?

the Rack and pinion....

very common in dated cars

something may need tightening or lubing.....

try it again when the car is stationary..........

have a look underneath when you get someone to turn it.....

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
