Good Day Skylines Australia,

My name is Sahin (translated to Falcon, no joke!). I live on the Northside of Brisbane where i manage the family business, which of course is a Smash Repairs and Mechanical workshop.

I drive a Nissan R33 Skyline which has been in the family for the last 9 years and am currently on my Green P Plates.

I really enjoy drifting! Please check my latest video on Youtube :)

Couple of upgrades had to be made! This vehicle is running a 4 speed AUTO gearbox which will be up for sale soon.

2.5" sports exhaust

Limited Slip Diff (out of a r32 GTT)

Lower Profile KYB Shocks and King Springs

-working on manual conversion...quite expensive

Retrimmed Steering Wheel (black leather with red stitching)

Stock Dash/Surround resprayed to a nice red.

Kenwood Double Din head unit and Fusion 12"sub & amp Pack.

My plans for the car is basically to have it running at full potential until i get off my P Plates.

-Manual Conversion is my next project

-I wouldnt mind getting the front seats re-apolstered Black with red stitching

-Much later in future will be to convert to 5 stud hubs and wheels. Upgrade the brakes to GTR Brakes

The video was taken at Queensland Raceway and if u have the right gear you can jump on the dry track. Which i cant wait to try when i go manual.

yeah you had pretty good control in that skidpan, especially for an auto.

looking real clean though, i dont see many 4drs that look nice but this is certainly an exception. thought about getting some nicer wheels?

good to keep the family tradition going :rofl:

I don't mind the wheels that i have at the moment but i DEFINITLY have thought of getting bigger wheels.The ones that i want are all 5 stud...so unless i run into a nice 4 stud set that i like, im just going to wait till i can afford to convert mine to 5 studs.

My mum used to drive this r33 before i took over, she now drives a R34 4d auto non-turbo.

Dads got a 06' Gto Monaro sitting in the garage and a 93' 180sx that my younger brother gets to drive as he is still on his Learners.

    • 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. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
