Hey guys,

I went to start my car after the gym and it wouldnt fire.I thought maybe it could be the immobiliser (AVS S4/S5) but I noticed the blue led light wasnt on or flashing so then I presumed it was a flat battery....apparently not :-( I tried resetting my alarm and tried my spare remote key with no luck. My headlights go on but when I go to turn it over it doesnt crank or anything?! I didnt check the fuses at this stage as I didnt have a torch on me.

The towey showed up and began to do the same checks I did and in the process he blew a couple of my fuses....what a dick......he said its a wiring issue but he didnt seem to know what he was doing and was pissed off cause he was having trouble putting my car on the truck cause its so low and it was past midnight.

I drove it to the gym an hour before hand so Im not sure why it didnt start? I read a couple of other posts suggesting it could be the battery in my remote which isnt turning off the immobiliser or the fuses....any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated :-)

Most immobilizers let it crank, but wont let it start.

Maybe a bad earth to the engine or faulty barrel?

Is yours a manual and have a clutch pedal lockout to start like the R34 GTR's? If so could even be that switch....wont let it crank....

Yeah mines a manual, found out it was the ignition switch fuse that kept blowing - checked and one of the wires from my boost gauge that was installed was grounding, so off to repco to get some more 30a fuses and run it on the diagnostic scanner to check to see if there are any more faults :)

thanks for the help

Would be hitting up the installer of the boost gauge for towing costs IMO. That is pretty piss poor.

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
