I recieved: Oil Cap, Thermostat, GT Titanium Knob last Friday, 2 MONTHS after I sent payment...

Although Dave's trustworthyness and honesty was never in question as far as I was concerned, I will hesitate to do business with Dave again due to the frustrating lack of communication.

Thanks for the goods!

I gather it would just be delivered to a home address and left oon the front steps or something. It's just in a padded parcel with australia post stamping on it.

I didn't have to sign for it or anything. I walked away from my desk, and walked back and it was delivered. NO one said anything about having to sign for it :?

In the last group buy, items were sent out by Registered Post. Technically you are required to sign for Registered Post items on delivery, or they leave a card and you can collect the item from the Post Office (with appropriate ID).

Of course because most delivery is now outsourced to contractors, and they don't give a sh!t, often its just left without a signature.

Of course Dave may not have used Registered Post for this lot (I didn't buy anything this time, so I have no idea).

LW.

Has anyone got a key yet? Or any word on them being sent? I sent an email to Dave but haven't got a reply for about a week. Hope the lad is ok.

Also, afaik its only the blank keys that wont come in the next box... they should be sent in about a week, but will let you know for sure when i get confirmation.

Hi Dave,

That was 1 month ago. I'm sure everything is cool and I'm not trying to be a pain in the a$$. I just would love to know what is happening, I understand your busy and all that, but I emailed you a couple of weeks ago with out a reply, and it's been a month since you posted that the keys would be sent in "about a week" and you would let us know for sure. If you could just say: "Keys will be here in XXX weeks I'll be happy".

Cheers,

Richard

got my nismo knob, it was mailed on the 1/9...

still waiting for key but he said there was going to be a delay... very wierd whats going on. im sure there is an explaination.

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
