You must have an auto right?

1. The power means it will change it down a gear for more torque, makes the car have a more aggressive feel and more torque. Also, it changes gears later in the rpm range.

The snow starts in 2nd gear for less torque, and keeps it in a lower rpm range, so it has less chance of wheel spin. Good for driving in muddy situations or snow.

So, you should have more torque in power mode and much less torque in snow mode.

2. As for the spoiler up and down button...to me it sounds pretty simple, but I have no knowledge of this in Skylines. If the button doesn't work maybe the motor for it is broken or your car has an aftermarket spoiler, which made the button obsolete. Who knows. :D

Please correct me if I am wrong people.

Hope this helped Justin.

Cheers.

^^^ correct.. The spoiler up/down button is for a front spoiler you may have had and its been removed.. look under the front, or get a mate to press the button while you look under your front bar.. if your front bar is aftermarket then it has definately been removed..don't worry about it..

I have this button and a standard front bar but no spoiler, dont suppose you have any pics of it, i have not been able to find a single bit of info on the spoiler.

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
