hi guys i have a s2 250gt sedan, stock, and i have few things that concern me,

first of the suspension makes creeks and noises when taken over some uneven parts of the road or when they have to compensate for some movement, usually heard on speed humps or crossings, im thinking the suspension might be needing a rebuild or something?

secondly, i haven't had the time to check and the brakes and maybe the rotors are uneven and faded so i might need some new ones there, anyone know what the sizes are for pads and rotors (front only)?

third is the air bag light keeps flashing, iv heard to take it to Nissan, im in Liverpool area and i don't like attitude of Liverpool Nissan (been there a few times with the old coupe and there a bit dic.ish), is there any Nissan dealerships that fix this problem with the airbag light and also how much would it set me back?

that's all, and that's for the view and read :)

The suspension could be bad bushes, some suspension shops will do free, or cheap inspections, so it might be worth taking it to one of them to get checked. Otherwise, get your mechanic to check it next time it is in for a service.

As for the airbag light, anyone with a scan tool that is compatible with the V35 will be able to read the codes. As for the cost of repair, that is totally dependant on the faulty item that has caused the warning light.

With the airbag there is a manual reset that I have used many times as the plug under my passenger set is a bit dodge.

Turn ignition switch to the on position, as soon as the airbag light goes out switch it off.

Repeat this process 5 times and then start the car, airbag light should come on while it does its initial startup sequence and then go out, and stay out.:thumbsup:

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
