ok so my mechanic has informed me that the reason my 4wd/ abs light wont go off is the error code 16 (lateral g sensor) needs attention. After talking to him it needs replacement as the capictators are burned out. Im not an electrician as you might be able to tell cos i have no idea what he is talking about. I'll ring around wreckers and import places but Id dare say this will be a challenge to source one.

Anyway I am after a replacement one in good condition preferably.

Price: Send me a pm or call me on 0430 470413 jack im happy to negotiate

Please forgive me for my first post as i am new to the forum.

These are a common problem with R32 GTR's due to the technology that was used when they were designed.

Nissan are always happy to sell you a new one for about $2,400 or you may be lucky and find a good second hand one. There are also some threads on SAU regarding repairing your existing unit if you are a techo as well as some new replacement units that are currently being developed.

Welcome to R32 GTR land and good luck.

thanks very much guys really appreciate all the help and advice. I ve had a look at a few good posts on G sensor and other related electronic wizardry. I will keep updated as too how i go

  • 2 weeks later...

fixed the G sensor, lights have gone out in dash finally! . Turns out i was responsible for breaking a G sensor :( I was expecting a huge repair bill but $670 isnt too bad i think.

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
