Even though a trans cooler is a must have, are you sure the shifting issue was due to trans heat and not an issue caused by the ecu change?

Very confident. I haven't had this issue at all on the street. Also the three runs where i let the car fully cool down I didn't have the issue, the three times i kept the car warm it had the issue.

Fitted up my r34 gtt brakes today. Also painted the rears black to match the front. While I was at it I changed my oil, diff oil front and rear and transfer case fluid.

For those playing at home I fitted QFM HPX pads front and rear

Nice productive day.

Man I need some 18s. It's such a subtle upgrade but makes the wheels look the right size. I found a decent chunk out of one of my 17s yesterday and pointed it out to my wife, who subsequently claimed responsibility. Time to angle for a Christmas present...

Installed my nismo dash today.. instantly went from 105k to 180k. Also noticed missing screws holding the dash in, no guessing needed as to why... I wonder how many ks it really has

That's a crowded dash! If I had more time I would like to mess around with microcontrollers and the serial output on the adaptronic. Then you could integrate another digital display somewhere on the dash, instead of old school gauges.

There are digital race dashes that plug straight into the adaptronic, I just have many things that are higher priority with my funds. I do plan on moving those gauges one day.

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
