Other than the fact it's under finance, that's what I love about the van - ridiculously good on fuel (~1000km from ~57L), can carry heaps of shit and you can sleep in it.

Shame about the expensive part haha

yeah that is frustrating. I can connect the Leaf but neither the Cube nor Cima work, they must be too old for ODB2. PITA

Speaking of the Cima it finally arrived on the weekend, drove it down today (goes great, it's like cruising on a lounge chair).

But...there are 2 problems:

* check engine light is on (goes fine though)

* front brakes need machining

Is there a workshop in Canberra who aren't afraid of imports and have a consult 3 or similar tool that can turn the light off, and can machine discs? I'd prefer to get both sorted this week if possible.

Is it just me or do you have your lefts and rights confused. :D

Consult (Grey Plug)

My Bluetooth adapter is OBD and with an adapter cable will plug into my Consult port but won't connect.

It would be worth a phonecall... I've only dealt with National Capital Motors in Belconnen (mostly for Parts) but they do have a service center there too.

I should imagine they would have the appropriate Technology. :)

all sorted now, turns out a lot of the Nissan dealers think they can't do imports :blink:

just got a local guy back home to do the discs and turn the light out at the same time. it was an AFM warning but I am 99% sure it was only because I unplugged it while f**king around with the headlights

BTW is it me or did winter just start again?

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
