I have a 99 stagea, RB25DET neo with the auto obviously.  I went to go for a drive earlier and when I started the car the A/T light flashed at me which I've never seen lite up before.  It stopped flashing and everything seemed fine until I went to drive away.  There is a lack of power, like a lot, almost feels like it's in snow mode which it's not.  From what I've been ready there is fault codes which is the light flashing.  I've been looking everywhere to find out what codes mean what.  Someone else was telling me that there is a jumper wire also to make it flash the codes as well.  Any help at this moment would be great.  The closest JDM shop to me is about 2000km away.

You could get Nissan Data Scan lite version on an android or apple phone, read the fault code via bluetooth reader. Also ask your questions here https://www.facebook.com/groups/17462900896

I finally figured out how to get it into diagnostics mode.  I've been trying to get a PLMS cable, waiting for a response from a seller for one.  Anyways I got the codes, but not sure how to read the code.  Is it the number of short flashes before the long flash is the code or is it the long flash that is the code.  Here's a link to a video I just posted. Apparently once you get the codes out it erases the codes.  I started it back up and I was able to light the tires up again.  For now that is until it happens again.

      I was wondering about this. I'll do some research.

      Why not? Since mines been built, I've used low boost maybe 5 times.

      gauge needle removal

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.

      R-chassis INNER tie rod torque spec?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task

      Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.
