Hey guys, first time posting here.

I've had my m35 stagea for about 6 months now (250t rs our) and i absolutely love this car. ever since about the start of last month it decided to enter limp mode on me. since than i have replaced a lot of parts. Started with plugs and coils and that fixed it for about a week, then i moved onto cleaning the intercooler piping and tb, same thing happened as it was fine for about a week then started going into limp mode again. then replaced the throttle body, maf and accel pedal position sensor and did all the relearn procedures. car ran good for almost 2 weeks! and well this morning on my way to my morning college class it wouldnt even leave my driveway without entering limp mode. I'm honestly at a loss with this car and not sure where to go next with it

Can anyone think of anything else to diagnose? i dont have a scanner of my own to check the dtc's when it enters limp mode but im working on getting one.

to clarify, my stagea is a 2001 with 124000km on it. always maintained properly in my ownership as well.

I had the same problem just recently, going into limp mode  with an nm35 2003 model but is was limping  once a week or 3 times a day .( 149,000k)

There was no perceived pattern.

The mechanic swapped two relays around . one relay was the lights and unfortunately  I can't recall what the other was . PM me if you haven't resolved the problem then  I will visit him Wednesday  for you, as I don't come onto the forum very often. Obviously the relays were interchangeable if that helps.

He mentioned that perhaps there was some moisture or a poor contact. sorry I can't be more useful

Previously when this happened  a few years back, a throttle body was replaced but you have done that already

      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.

      gauge needle removal

      By JC71 · Posted

      I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
