Did the dealer fix the brake issue?

Brake issue?

Not exactly sure what you are talking about. These cars do have crap rotors fitted on them from factory. The rotors were worn out at 50,000km and I replaced them along with new brake pads.

There was a recall for the 1.4L turbo cars. The ABS could randomly crap out or something like that. Your model might be excluded (can't remember if it was for auto only), best check with a dealer.

My brother had a blue SRi almost same as yours, his brakes failed (pedal went hard) at an intersection and smashed into a car. A couple of days later, he got a letter in the mail telling him about the recall.

Sorry to be a bummer, but would suck to buy a car then have it randomly try to murder you (or sell your car and have it try to kill the new owner).

Good cars though, very zippy on boost, does awesome mileage, cabin is insulated really well, very low road noise. Sucky automatic programming though (which this car doesn't have!). My brother's car didn't even reach 30,000km.

*edit* it's for auto only, so please disregard my posts.

Strange it says during warm up, but my brother's car was running for more than half an hour before his accident.

Cheers, didn't know about/hear about that issue. My car has had a full-service history at Holden and they never mentioned anything. Although they have done some software upgrades along the way.

Very scary issue to have especially on the brakes! Is your brother OK now?

I guess since your car is a manual, they didn't need to concern you. Yeah brother's fine, he walked away with whiplash and a sore foot.

But hey, at least we know your car won't try to kill the new owner ;).

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
