I TRUST YOU RICHARD! I'm Just looking at my options atm.. I have NO money due to this rebuild breaking my balls. But when i get the car back and have a bit more moneys i want to fix the A/C and the bubbled dash. When those are done im all good... Interior wise i have 1 small bubble and the cracked vents. All seats look new.

Oh also need to replace the ECU... Verms needs to hurry up and sell me his Apexi.

hey mate It can be done without taking the dash out if your vents are already broken you can remove them with the dash still in place, just be very careful when putting the new ones in :)

ignore that if you are planning to replace your dash just do the vents then :)

Thanks mate yeah thats why i was thinking if its hard to take the dash out ill wait till my motorbike will be back up and running as when the car is back ill be taking the bike off the road to do a full respray haha. Hence my thoughts where just to get new vents and take them back out when i replace the dash. Still deciding.

Yeah - if your replacing old and there broken you can pull them out and just push the new ones in.

But be aware that the vents are screwed on from the back of the dash

Hey fellas just trying to put in a new centre vent in my 32... but it doesn't want to push in from the front even with a bit of force

Sinista, what do you mean that they are screwed in from the back? I can't see any screws in the new vent? or is there a bracket that screws into the dash from the back that holds in the vent?

Can i get it in from the front without removing the dash? is there some sort of technique that'll help?

I read somewhere else on the forums someone said "look inside them and you will see tabs which you put a flat screwdriver into and lever down. Its a lot eaiser than taking the dash out."

any help appreciated. cheers

My centre vent fell apart yesterday.. finally... they have tabs ontop and underneath them. but since mine was apart i could just pull it out, bit of glue for not and shoved it back in haha

Sorry about not sending Pics. Hit the turps early otaday and just got home.

EWill do it tomoz.

Edit: And Anthony when wouold you like the Dash for cash ?

Will have another available soon. Because my brand spanker is turning up mid to late Jan :D

well i need to see how i am with cash after the ECU, Injectors, boost controller and tune are done. if im all g ill grab it off you then... whats the go with those ID injectors you have?

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
