pva glue.

It still could be instrumental. Get it checked out and stop being a tight ass LOL. No honestly the readings are taken off the coil. Could be faulty wiring or connections or the tacho itself. get it check out by a mechanic or auto electrician.

good luck friend. :P

:( I had a similar problem and got auto repair after repair to hunt down the wiring, checked all the engine managment and sensor and was fine. Adventually I got of my ASS and replaced the Tacho all fixed, mind you the Tacho wasn't cheap!

Where is Tacometer sensor is located?

I think mine is bit out of scale...:D

cheers

There isn't a 'Tacometer[sic] sensor' as such, the ECU gets the angle of rotation of the camshaft from the CAS (Cam Angle Sensor), from this it can calculate the speed of rotation of the crankshaft, and using this generates a negative pulse for every rotation of the crank.

This pulse is the signal on pin 7 of the ecu, and that is what the rev counter uses.

Sounds to me like a problem with the rev counter instrument itself or the wiring between the ecu and instrument cluster, as there is very little that could go wrong with the ECU.

      Why not? Since mines been built, I've used low boost maybe 5 times.

      gauge needle removal

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.

      R-chassis INNER tie rod torque spec?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task

      Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.

      gauge needle removal

      By JC71 · Posted

      I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
