Yep, happened to me the other week after putting the seat back in after 2 year lol..

Push the seat forward and recline it as if you were trying to get into the back seat. then twist the knob all the way (cant remember which way though). Pull the seat back into normal position and it should come good.

sounds like a job for WD40 :miner:

Good old WD40 - its good for everything!

I've tried turning the knob whilst the seat is in the forward position - and it wont budge - think I will try pulling it apart.

Has anyone done this? I dont want to stuff it up and be without a seat!!! If not I'll get someone to weld it in place!

Just as J'z-R33 said.

move the backrest forward, whilst in the forward position, wind the knob all the way - then its fixed!

I’ve just discovered that my passenger R32 GTR seat won’t recline, or come up, as the twist knob seems solidly stuck. I’ve tried to move it once I’ve ‘unlocked’ the seat from its position (as if I’m allowing someone in the rear seats), and tried to turn it then, but no luck. Any thoughts?? I know it used to work perfectly.

      @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.

      Noobie Stagea owner..

      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?
