thats not good i would like to keep the value of mine up.

yeah ditto! its caus every day new skylines are imported.. and when u think bout it.. none of them are leaving, so we gettin full! O, and also the petrol.. bloody Johnie.

*looks at people with 15 year old GTR's*... you ruined my resale value bastards! :P jokes

Depreciation, the cars are starting to get really old in Japan now and are worth stuff all, which means they get imported for cheaper. 2 years ago a 1999 R34 GTR cost you $100,000+... you can now pick them up for a touch over $60,000 (same price R32 GTR's were 5 years ago).

Hey JoN - be good to see you mate - in a GTR!!!!

The only thing better than an r32 2 gts-t is a R32 GTR :D

Richard how are ya??

Yeh hopefully wont be too long now. Once i get it i will be up for a few NSW SAU track days so hopefully might see you guys up there

im always buying you food at the jerra leigh! goddamit i dont even know if you have a job! jks :P yes i have a j-o-b and work at telstra, i give info on (if anyones seen the adds or stuff on the news bout it) the new legislation about workplace and industrial relations reform policy and other things along those lines. started today and only had to work 5 hours but because it was advertised today i only got 3 calls! yay! but will be working 5 days a week in dickson :) the add is a long mofo and says "workchoices" numorous times. its not as good as eb and doesnt have its "benefits" but ohwell had to give it up some time... i shall have my line soon :) but wont put a date on it...mayhaps early next year :)

and leigh i know your going to say something like "everyone get off the roads" or "im gonna catcha bus to work" or "be afraid, be veeerry afraid!" but i thought id beat you to it :)

congrats dude pity i am no longer working at the ACCC which is in the transact building its like a 1 minute walk to the dodgy telstra building :) oh well

also i wouldnt say that about your driving thats reserved for gus :)

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
