The ecu controls the throttle, that is definitely traction control. I wish I could rip mad skids like the rb guys. :(

Your tyres aren't worn differently or the pressures different? Do you have a spare set of wheels you could try? Could be diff windup.

You bloody do mate!

it did it on the other wheels too (the other stock wheels :D) yeah i guess there is THAT traction control which we all hate :(

same tyre pressures! i cleaned - well, sprayed the TPS - today so ill see how it goes on the way to work tomorrow.

ive never experienced any vibration in mine as the 4wd motor is f@$ked and the 4wd light has been on since day one.

so there is a good chance what you are experiencing is transfer or front diff related.

apparently there is something inside the torque converter that can cause a vibration when its worn out. commodores and other such cars suffer it a lot im told.

im HOPING to take it to be fixed either this week or next

Dominator had never seen a converter like mine before, ther wanted $1500 to make me a replacement high stall. I hope you are taking it to a professional Iain.

im taking it to the dealer where it came from (for warranty) and they are taking it to an auto transmission place. the guy at the trans place sounded like he knew what he was on about so i dont feel worried taking it there.

Isn't it basically the same as the 350Z auto, with a transfer case stuck on the end? Or maybe even more similar to the Model Year 2000 odd Pathfinder, as their 4wd is ATTESA like ours..

I guess not too many 350's putting out that many ponies run the auto box. The valve body had to be imported too, although I have heard they are available here now.

The issue was they were just built too lightweight so cant be machined out at all to open the vanes. How much are they covering Iain? You putting a shift kit in while you are there?

no idea as yet, i have to speak to the boss man. and he doesnt like paying for things.

this was originally diagnosed within the 3 month warranty before the extended warranty. they just never fixed it for the 4 times they 'fixed' it.

so ill fight to the death with this one.

shift kit? no. at this stage i just want the car fixed. i can do the shift kit later. i dont want to complicate things further

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
