alright im new to the skyline scene and i recently bought a r31. I took it to my mechanics and i fixed the gearbox as the syncros were stuffed and it wouldnt go into 4th gear. I also changed the thrust bearing because it was crap. I told him about this rev problem i was having and he said he took a look and it was fine but just before it happened again on the way home. I turned into the street and went to 4 grand revs in 2nd and then i took my foot off the pedal , the revs just stayed there without dropping so i tried to put the car in neutral and try 2nd gear again and the same thing. then i turned it off while it was rolling in neutral and then turned it back on and the revs just bounced back to 4 grand. i parked it after i knew that there was somthing wrong and let it sit there for about 2 mins and i put my foot behind the pedal incase it was stuck and thats the reason it was giving me 2 grand revs. i did it and they fell down to 2 grand. after i thought its better so i proceeded to head home. got to the next street and stopped fully and the car was back to normal. i have no idea what this problem is and im paranoid incase it happens at the wrong time and something happens. Does anyone have any idea what the problem may be?

the cars a 1987 r31 sillo 5 speed with extractors exhaust other then that i have no clue whats been done.

Cheers Costa

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
