either the button isnt tight on the stick, pull the bottom of the stick down and make sure the sirclip is in the correct spot.

or u have to have the key in the ignition and foot on the brake otherwise it wont move

yeah you need the ignition on and your foot on the brake pedal.

if thats not working, its probably the solenoid that activated the locking mechanism. there is a manual override next to the park position. pull out the little stopper and stick a screwdriver in the opening. it will release it

this is on an M35. C34 might be similar.

Hey thanks for the help guys. My foot is on the brake. I know I have to do that for the shift lock. On the c34 I can't see any manual release thing for a screw driver. I do know what they look like I've seen them on new cars. I am looking for it. Where is it? I have called mechanic b says it's electrical problem. Because I can hear the click sound when it unlocks but then it won't move dam it.

I DOUBT its an electrical fault.

The lockout for park on these cars runs off a PHYSICAL locking cable that runs from the shifter to the underside of the ignition barrel.

The cable up and to the left of the shifter in this car is the Lockout cable.... see how its been removed for manual conversion. Pull your centre console out and have a look to see if its still in place and then look under your barell to make sure its not causing issues for you.

Alrightey I fixed it. It was the ignition cable. Runs from the console to the ignition. I took off all the plastic under the steering wheel to trace the cable to the stick. Injust gave it a pull and it's fixed. I've played around with it and now it's better than before. Thank kidafa for that link and everyone else.

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
