Hey all. I have an R33 GTS-T and recently had trouble with the driver's side power window. The window is stuck down. I recently replaced the P/W regulator. I took my vehicle to the local auto elec and after testing confirmed the problem was most likely the P/W amplifier assy. I tracked down afew import mobs and they were'nt able to match the product numbers. Has anyone had a similar problem with their car and can possibly suggest a different problem to the amplifier assy. If you think it may be the amplifier assy does anyone know where I could find one. Cheers.

Had driverside issues for a while when i had the r33, the fault in mine was that the up/down switch for the drivers windows is worn/boroken - the window will be closed, however the window will still be either winding up/down all the time and wearing out the motor brushes.The drivers switch should recentre itself.

Heres my feable attempt to fix it. Your best chances are to look in the parts / wreaking for sale forum.

Power window

The buttons are the same for S1 and S2, however the circuit below the buttons are not.

- if your talking about this unit, - think they are the same as the r32, r33 and 180.

The other thing to try is to open it reheat the solder joints to eleminate dry joints.

If i knew that the driver side window switch was broken, i would have just preplaced that instead of fixing the pw motor every 3 months and bang the doors in fraustration.

i got this issue with my series 2 stagea, would the electric motor on the stagea be the same as the skyline? Havent got it tested yet but im assuming the motor died cause the window would go up slower and slower and one day nothing. Passenger side the switch only works from the drivers side

      There are advantages, and disadvantages to remapping the factory.   The factory runs billions of different maps, to account for sooooo many variables, especially when you bring in things like constantly variable cams etc. By remapping all those maps appropriately, you can get the car to drive so damn nicely, and very much so like it does from the factory. This means it can utilise a LOT of weird things in the maps, to alter how it drives in situations like cruise on a freeway, and how that will get your fuel economy right down.   I haven't seen an aftermarket ECU that truly has THAT MANY adjustable parameters. EG, the VAG ECUs are somewhere around 2,000 different tables for it to work out what to do at any one point in time. So for a vehicle being daily driven etc, I see this as a great advantage, but it does mean spending a bit more time, and with a tuner who really knows that ECU.   On the flip side, an aftermarket ECU, in something like a weekender, or a proper race car, torque based tuning IMO doesn't make that much sense. In those scenarios you're not out there hunting down stuff like "the best way to minimise fuel usage at minor power so that we can go from 8L/100km to 7.3L/100km. You're more worried about it being ready to make as much freaking power as possible when you step back on the loud pedal as you come out of turn 2, not waiting the extra 100ms for all the cams to adjust etc. So in this scenario, realistically you tune the motor to make power, based on the load. People will then play with things like throttle response, and drive by wire mapping to get it more "driveable".   Funnily enough, I was watching something Finnegans Garage, and he has a huge blown Hemi in a 9 second 1955 Chev that is road registered. To make it more driveable on the road recently, they started testing blocking up the intake with kids footballs, to effectively reduce air flow when they're on the road, and make the throttle less touchy and more driveable. Plus some other weird shit the yankee aftermarket ECUs do. Made me think of Kinks R34...

      Return flow cooler will be killing you I reckon. You can certainly push more through a low mount setup but they're good numbers for a stock looking engine bay.  Mine made 345rwkw (hub) at 22psi on 98 with a "highflow" on a stock manifold but it's a long way from a normal high flow or standard engine. I used one of those Turbosmart IWG-75's and it was great with the Motec running closed loop boost with pressure being applied to both sides of the diaphragm.
