Hi. Having major problems with car & after eliminating so many other things starting to suspect ECU. Does anyone in SE Melb (Im in Cranbourne) have an ECU they are not currently using (car off road, etc) I could try? Car is a R32 GTST but fitted with a series 1.5 (95 model) RB25 so s1.5 or s2 will do the trick.

Thanks

im not local but ive got a series II stock ECU you can try - can bring to next car club meeting

its unlikely the stock ECU is fault, it has lots of built in / post diagnostics and failsafe modes to protect itself

try unplugging the main battery terminal to the car, pump the brake pedal a few times and then reconnect batt and start car

this will clear all the daig codes on the ECU and instruct it to self learn or at least re-run diag at post engine start

it may clear some non-fatal crap but worth a shot, given zero effort required

Hey man just wondering how your cars going, no rush on the ECU or anything just curious if it fixed your problemo

Na mate, had no luck... Thanks very much for your help but. Think problem is somewhere in AFM circuit... Have replaced AFM & checked resistance & voltage of all wires & came up good, but when car is running & you wiggle wires it really changes idle so has to be a problem in there somewhere... Was going to return ECU yesterday but went to leave work & found the lancer had a flat tyre... After fixing that was absolutely rooted! Will give you a call & come down either over weekend or early next week if thats ok? Thanks again buddy

      Did tie rods. Steering now not "springing" back.

      No. GKTech arms have spherical bearings in them. No bushes. You will not need bushes for those arms. The sphericals are a bit of a maintenance nightmare. I have replaced all of mine several times in the 5 or so years I've had them, and I have the arms out regularly to clean and lube the balls. Worth the pain on an R32, because the standard arm design is trash. If you need the camber adjustment, there are other options (than the GKTech ones), although I would still lean towards and prefer the GKTech ones, even with the maintenance load of the sphericals. The caster adjustment is also highly valuable, allowing for setting the car up to drive straight. There are a million options for these, including the GKTech ones. I've had Tein rods on mine for 20 years and the balls are much less trouble in that location. Never given me a moment's pain. All positives, no negatives. I consider them compulsory.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      Thanks for all that information I appreciate it. To answer your questions: - Yep that's what I mean. These guys are professional painters to so I must be missing something. It's a bit hard to explain. - With the primer landing on clearcoat, I make sure that the surrounding clearcoat is scuffed to 240 grit as my epoxy primer says that I only need to sand the area to 240 grit. - Yeah so similar to the first question, assuming that the paint landed on the unscuffed clearcoat because I've seen that happen. - Yep I want to prep the surface in that order. Only reason because epoxy primer will protect it from rust and I need that atm with this crappy Sydney weather. I think I was worried about time, if I try to put the filler down but screw it up somehow and I don't have time to sand it off and reapply it then need to put primer later that it might start to rust again so I wanted to apply the primer as quick as possible to not deal with rust.  - I just deleted some answers, I just realised after watching a video and what you said about looking at the data sheet, that I need to read the data sheet on the specific filler I'm using. It's possible now that I put epoxy primer first was a waste of time and need to go to bare metal lol

      I did. I went to a suspension guy and he told me because I don't have adjustable camber arms it's the reason why my car veers towards the left if I take my hands off the wheel but if I drive my other every day car and take my hands off the steering wheel it goes completely straight. I think it's common with Skyline's. In order to fix the problem, I likely need gktech camber arms then nismo bushes since I have poly bushes atm, then a wheel alignment after that. With my car if I take my hands off the steering wheel on a really bumpy road before stopping at a light I have to hold my steering wheel somewhat tight otherwise my car will legit just go completely in the other direction quite quickly and I'll slam into something lol instead of stopping straight. I Believe this YouTuber had the same issue and fixed it with gktech arms. At timestmap 6:05 he talks about how the car doesn't veer anymore after installing these arms.
