Hey guys, Went to start up the gt-r on sunday morning to find the batery was completly dead after just being replaced last month.

I have connect up the meter and a light bulb and yes, there is a constant current being drawn from the BAT 10 amp Fuse, this is highlighted in WHITE on the fude cover lid. But i cant read jap so i dont know whats draining my power. The light bulb does not shine at a consistand brightness but, dimming in and out if this means anything.

taking the fuse in and out everytime i drive the thing is begining to become a burdon. It's an R33 model 1995.

Hope you guys can help me or throw some sudgestions to find were this power is being sucked from.

Cheers.

Are you referring to the japanese writing on the fuse box cover inside the dash?

This fuse layout is that I know from R33 GTS-t, but I think it applies to all general R33 including GTR. Hope it can solve your problem.

Car will not start. and the the battery go's flat is whats happening

interior lights still work, alarm and everything is running. and no its not the alarm!

Thanks for that translation mate and acording to that it's the Electrics Fuse.

odviously then its somthing to do with the elecrics of the car... so this eliminates anything else with a fuse and whats left?

And after inspecting the rear strut tower brace, the nut has been cross threaded and used before... so previous owner has odviously had battery out before afew times as well.

maybe i should give supercheap's head office a call and hassle bob, see if he knew what the problem was.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
