ok i went on a trip with some mates last weekend and we was staying at a house that had a gravel road to it...bumpy as and now my car has the shakes. its hard to describe the sound it makes but it only makes noise when i reach 20-30+kms, steering is not too bad but i know its not good ;)...any idea on what may have happened/happening???

Rapped bushes? Jack the front end up and move all the ball joints etc and see if you can notice anything that defently looks out of wack would be your best option - Almost impossiable to pin point something with the description given.

Just going to have to get underneath it and have a good look underneath.

My car does the same thing after going on dirt roads. I just clean the wheels out from all the dirt that builds up inside the rim which causes an imballance in the wheels give that a go

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.

      I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
