Hey guys,

Me got an '93 R33 and it has one of these electronic front spoiler jobbies. It is supposed to work when over 80km/hr, controlled in the driver's seat by pushing a couple of buttons. Anyways I can only get it to work when i'm parked and have the handbrake on, or so it seems.

Throw some light on the subject!!!!!:)

The buttons are there so you can lower it when parked with the park brake on for cleaning or just admiring after all this is the only time you can see it . It pops back up when the handbrake comes off and activates automatically around 80Kph both up and down.

Anyone want to count up how many times this question has been answered here and on SDU :)

Spot on...

Reading from the manual

"GT Auto Spoiler switch

With the ignition ON the Auto spoiler has 3 modes: UP, DOWN, AUTO. Press the UP switch to have the Spoiler permanently in the UP position. Press the DOWN switch to have the Spoiler permanently in the DOWN position. Do not press either switch to have the spoiler in the AUTO position. In this mode the spoiler will automatically come down when the vehicle is driven over 70km/h and the spoiler will automatically rise back up when the vehicle slows to less than 50km/h"

how do we get a hold of the manuals?????

To My Knowledge no manuals exist except for a comprehensive owners book about $60 www.rmaimports.com.au which is worth having and an engine manual for the R32 which covers the CA18i RB20E, RB20DE,RB20DET, RB25DEand RB26DETT about $160

Some time ago gts32t posted in the sales business forum that he gould get any manuals translated to English for around $180 but was not willing, apparantly, to divulge any further info eg the source manual

      I always wonder where the obsession with legal/illegal spacing on number plates in the UK comes from. Because it comes up in comments in every UK-based video I see on youtube. From my point of view all of your plates look a bit odd. Just because there are no markings whatsoever. In Australia we have the state that has to be on it. In Europe you get stamps and state logos. Yours look a bit like a throwaway draft that people then stuck with. And attached with blu tack so that it falls off at the slightest disturbance. Not trying to hate, but it's interesting how things are done in different countries. Do you have to follow a lettering convention when choosing a custom plate?

      Hybrid sounds like a supercharger... It's half a turbo, with a belt to drive it! Oh wait, they're just called super chargers...

      It's either an ignition failure or a fuel failure.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Before starting any work, we attempted to adjust the tune. However even after adjusting it to certain extremes like completely stopping fuel, it had no effect. What fixed it was removing the Nistune Board and installing the original EPROM instead. This immediately fixed the issue. Everything should have been fine with the Nistune Board installation, so I am unsure why it has caused a problem. The soldered connector is also properly soldered. This worked when I first got the 550cc injectors, before cleaning, but that may have been a coincidence.  We ended up not installing the fuel pump hanger (at least for now). So currently running stock injectors, stock fuel pump, stock fuel pump hanger – Well everything stock except the exhaust. Now I have around €1400 in Nistune, Injectors, and Hanger collecting dust for the time being, perhaps I'll install them in the future. For now I'll enjoy the car as is 😁 Thanks a lot for all your assistance, I really appreciate all the help you have given me.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      The turbo can’t be the issue. They’re proven to make much much power than you’re making. There is something in the setup that isn’t correct. - has the exhaust got any silly step downs? - what exhaust manifold?
