As it states, she won't turn on. Here are her symtons.

All electrics work. U can turn the key to accessories and everything still works but once you try to turn the ignition, everything dies. No electronics what so ever and the car doesn't even turn over. Its totally dead but after a few hours the electronics will start working again.

Weird part is that on occasion it starts perfectly. I know my alligator and battery are both working so i need other suggestions.

Due to it being intermittent when it is stationary would rule out other reasons like faulty wiring, main fuse. car alarm, etc...

If it didn't start at all or it turned off when car was running I'd be looking for something else (loose connection/wiring, fuel pump, fuel lines, AFMs, IC piping, Ignitor, etc..).

When something doesn't start it points to an inhibited Fuel, Spark, Air issue. (or a mixture of these).

As yours starts sometime it is likely your battery recovers some charge.

Quick way to tell - swap the battery with a mates, mum/dad, neighbour. Rules it in or out.

Then we can start helping further :)

Edit: Could try swapping the ignitor too. Make sure it's grounded. Yours could be almost farked.

IMHO

K i topped up the battery and charged it to full. It turned the electrics on but couldn't start the engine then everything died again. Got it tested and it said the battery was ok? However im unsure if it got a false reading due to the recharge and top up. Does anyone have any new ideas

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
