Hey im new to this site, so bare with me. My 34 has been playin up lately. while im cruising along, the tcs & slip light will light up on my dash by itself, followed by the engine light, then it will start to lose power & stall slowly, so i have to pull over on the side of the road, then i will start the car back up, sometimes it has trouble starting again, but when it starts again i can drive it again. this only happens now & then. not all the time. it really pisses me off tho. my 34 is auto by the way. Is my AFM playing up? please help. need this fixed asap.

Nah. ive replaced them for brand new yellow jackets, bcoz at first that's what i thot, but still the problem occurs. Im guessing its the AFM. Anyone else had this problem, please tell me. need help. just don't see why the TCS & slip light comes on by itself on the dash when it starts to play up. weird....

I've taken it to the auto electricians. they did the scan while they were cruising & when the car was dying they saw that the AFM was at fault. so im guessing its the AFM. Ive got brand new yellow jacket coil packs in it, so it can't be the coil packs. just hard to figure out why the TCS & SLIP light turns on when it starts to play up.

Pat just stated he had 2 out of 6 brand new yellow jacket coilpacks fail on him, maybe he got some ultra dodgey ones - or maybe they are all dodgey? nfi

Ever changed your standard panel filter assembly over to a pod yourself and left the afm plug off? does it feel like that?

swap the afm for a used second hand one and see it it is any better. should be one on here for $50-100 max.

i brought the car with a apexi pod filter already installed.

brought it late last year, just recently playing up.

im borrowing my mates afm this friday, so hopefully its just my afm thats faulty. not something major.

i'll tell you all how it went. im borrowing it for at least 2 days.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...

      Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.

      Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?

      Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
