Nah rear diff is just more important lol

At least i didn't give up on mine!

Though Ants you will be glad to know i went over it for about 2 hours on Fridee and it has almost no rust. A little bit of surface rust on the front jack up points and a little bit in the drivers wheel arch. That's all i could find. After seing yours i was a little worried.....

not given up, will be transplanting my engine and transmission into a late model R33 GTR. . Rust on 32's are imminent. You should be worried.

Nah mines all g. Typical places for it there was nothing.

Rust is something that will happen on all cars. I'm lucky here in that Canberra is very dry so rust isn't really an issue here. And my car only very rarely gets in the rain so i'm not worried at all. Eventually ill be doing a bare metal restoration anyway and ill fix what little rust has come up then.

In the mean time ill convert the current stuff and paint it.

TBH in a few years 33's will have the same issue.

As will the 34's.

Rust on 32's are imminent. You should be worried.

Rust on all of them 32-34 (being so old) is imminent if they're being used regularly and haven't been maintained.

A 34 is 15-17 years old. My car was 15 years when I first bought it and has essentially been kept in storage for most of that time. I've seen 34R's driving around in worse condition now.

this is true. Except that in a few years I will have a running GTR and yours will still being fixed :P

See i'd rather drive my GTR on the road, i'm not one of those cruise ship people.

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
