Hello, 

I have a full stock r34 gtr however the brakes locked.

Brakes are fine (pedal feels good), I had to go over 90km h under rain to make it locked.

no brake leakage and brake fluid level is ok.

I'm using used (good conditions) winter tyres.

abs goes on and off after ignition is switch on.

I had a fault code 72 that I clear and it didnt get back.This fault code was relating to TPS (MFD show correctly the TP) I also checked the TPS signal on the abs connector and voltage is within spec (0.5 - 4v)

I checked the wheel sensors from the connector of the abs module I got values (using a cheap chinese ohmeter) between -0.5k and +8k (depends at which speed I turn the wheel ) with average/rest at 1.2k 

during the wheel sensors signal measurements; I moved/shake the wheel sensors wires/connectors to make sure there is no short or open in the loom/connector/sensor.

I'm out of idea ? can it be a relay ? fuses ?

best regards

Thanks for your answer however now I'm out of idea...

 

I have performed the following tests :

- continuity test between the wiring of the abs pump and the abs ECU

- ring abs sensor are in good condition and have the correct number of teeth (46)

- all fuses are ok

- tyres are globally in same condition; is within +/- 10mm

 

- I have electrically disconnected the abs pump to test it :

* relay are ok (80 ohms and I can "hear" them when I powered them)

* solenoid valves seems ok (4 ohms or 8 ohms and consummes 1.5A or 3A; it will depends if it's an inlet or outlet)

* the abs motor is working

 

My questions :

- I have a front limited diff slip, is it possible that's making some trouble with the ABS ?

- should I open the abs pump to check the valves ?

- should I go for new tyres ?

- where can I found the software to use with nissan consult to connect to the abs ECU (so that I could log some infos)

 

Any other idea maybe ?

 

Thanks for your time

so I have bleed the entire system and the wheels are still locking

I have dixcel m or z type brake pads (I dont know if that could be an issue somehow )

I have order a consult 1 we will see
if I am still getting into trouble I will change the master brake cylinder, abs pump and abs control unit ...

best regards

I finally got a (german) consult

I was able to do the active test with success (meaning the abs pump should be ok)

the wheel data seems to be ok too, they are between +/-1kmh between each other and they are matching the real speed.

I was not able to do the self diagnostic with the consult; I might do something wrong in the process I guess (see picture)

I'm suspecting some solenoids being blocked as my wheels are still locking (my feeling is it seems to be the front only ) so I will dissasemble the pump
I have made a test this morning (7am at 1 degre; the road was dry but we some humidity on it; sorry I don't get the english word for it )

you can clearly see from the picture that my abs control seems to react correctly !
 

if the solenoids valve are in good cobdition, I will put everything back to stock :

  • no winter tyres
  • OEM pads
  • new flexible hoses (avionic )
  • new brake master


thanks

So to conclude,

My assumption was false, based on the curves I provided we can see that the wheels has locked but the ABS release some pressure to unlock them...

Replacing the winter tyres by some regular tyres give a much better feeling too (but I don't think it was necessary)

So at the end, a bleed of the system + some cleaning on the calipers (with a lot of WD40) seems to have done the trick....yes it was such simple

French test has been passed with success this time

I can finally drive legally in a few weeks hopefully

THanks for having a look into my problem.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
