R33Gtst

[HR31DRFT]

Hi Guys,

Before u flame i did search and was unable to find solutions to my issue.

Ok well i have just purchased a S1 R33GTST and noticed the following...

It seems like something electrical is causing my rev tacho 'OEM' to jump around like crazy, hopefully this is an common issue and can be sorted without too much fuss, i bang the dash a lil and goes back to normal but i dont like beating my car ahaha.

Also can some1 hook me up in Perth area with some strut braces to suit?

Much thanks,

Smitherines..

Also, check my job on restoring the headlights :-)

Pretty stoked on the outcome.

I originally intended to keep the lights on the car but found 1 had water in it so i baked and re-sealed.

I have coated the lights in 3 x layers of UV protectant to avoid this happening again.

Yellowing = GAY

is the sensor look like it is connected to the throtal because it could be the tps.

Yes it is the throttle sensor, my car runs like sht when im mucking around and forget to plug it in!

you will find some broken wires somewhere unless you have some ecu that dont need it (doubt it)

Also see a vac line missing, there important for proper turbo/inducion operation

OK thanks for the reply, so where from here.

Seems like some1 has fkd with some stuff on this... The cars runs really well but i'm concerned about this..

Can anyone help me out?

[HR31DRFT]

Ok, so the m/t does not run the plug.

I reset the TPS to 0.50, about to go for a cruise to see mum.

Hopefully runs a dream :-)

I'm giving myself a lesson in RB hahaha

Next job's to fix...

Rev tacho has finally stopped working totally, so i will remove in the morning and suss out.

The hi-cas light comes on now after about 10mins and stays lit, i have searched around and found that it could be due to the after market boss kit, if anyone has pointers for this help me out please. Tried the diagnose function but couldn't seem to get it in that mode??? help...

But after re-calibrating the TPS the car runs like a hot curry

Also i will say that it seems i have had no help from many on here which is a little of a let down

this may help diagnose the hicas problem...

the tacho problem is common (mine has started dancing around) im lead to believe its just cracked solder joints.. you could try re solder it or just buy a second had working cluster..

Thanks mate, i found this vid the other day and tried to go into diagnosis mode but it didnt do it, i've tried like 10 times... i've just bought the car so i might have a look around n see if the is a there is a tomei hicas lock unit on the hicas unit...

Any reason why no1 is helping me out?

Regarding solder joints, i had the tacho out this morning and couldnt see where solder is used, did you have a rundown of this??

Thanks again.

Oh and i think i know maybe why its not going into diag mode, the after market steering wheel????

iirc you may need to get a hicas adapter / boss kit..

it took me a few tries but you have to turn it quickly to engage it.. but if you have done that it could be the steering wheel.. the above video the guy has an aftermarket steering wheel so it may be something else..

the tacho may be a wiring issue also

[HR31DRFT]

Yeh i'm not sure if they hooked up the hicas sensors for the s/wheel.

Might remove n check it out.
