Hey guys my car seems to have come across a 'common problem' with the v35 coupe but is a little different and sounds more serious then others..

anyway i started the car this morning only to notice these problems

- VDC, SLIP, AT CHECK all lights on

- No speedo or tacho

- No indicator arrows blinking (although indicators were actually working)

- No wipers (they would come on some times)

- sluggish and rough changing gears

- Headlights were flickering and flashing even when they were switched off.

- Stereo and a/c working fine, seats, mirrors all working fine?

Now the battery seems fine..

however I was driving through some quite heavy rain last night on the highway.. could this be an issue?

I've also read that this sometimes happen when break pads need replacing.. are they easy to check how much pad is left? if so whats involved?

would really love some help/advice asap as the car was supposed to be put on the market this week!

thanks in advance guys

I can't see how worn brake pads can cause this..??

Sounds more like a power related issue.. possibly bad ground points.. Sorry, I don't have a difinitive answer for you.

fuse boxes.

one in the drivers kick panel, one in front of the battery, and one behind the battery. youll need to take off the cover and get the battery out to get to it. there are a LOT of fuses in there

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
