Any of you R34 owners had or have heard of this problem. First some back ground info. I have had my car for about 6 months now, it is a Tiptronic-Auto. Just serviced and also has a new battery. The problem is that I seem to have some difficulty starting the car. This only seems to happen after the car has been running for some time. For example, go for a 15min drive, not really pushing the car. Pull up at a corner shop turning car off, come out a minute later and wham, the car just won't turn over. ( I let the fuel pump churn over everytime I start the car).

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks for the quick reply guys. What I find strange though is that it used to start on queue first time everytime until just recently. I will try to call Nissan and see what they say.

nsm034, do you know where I can find more info if any on this R34 recall??

Skyline recalls:

A couple there that look like they could be related to your problem.

Thanks Ant for the those details. It is a very informative site. I even found the recall for my little old Hyundai Excel from many years ago in it hehehehe.

If I'm reading the site info correctly, only 2 of these recalls can possibly affect my car as my car was made in 8/2000. One of these is ruled out as it is for police cars and the other doesn't list my cars model number.

RJ-0887-0 NISSAN SKYLINE 23/12/1998 - 27/04/2001 speedometer

RJ-0946-0 NISSAN SKYLINE 25/05/1999 - 31/03/2003 brake lights

SO, I guess I am back to square one again.......unless somebody else knows or has experienced this type of problem???

So does it kick over and not start or not kick over at all?

Also 4 litres without the filter or 4.5-.4.7 (can't remember exactly) if you replace the filter as well.  More info in pm to folow.

The car starts perfectly every morning when I drive her out of the garage. (turn key count 1, 2 1/2 START. But on a hot start count 1, 2,- 10 even still won't start. Then I wind back key so no auxiliary is on then wait 20 seconds, then turn key. Count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 then it turns over and starts. It is getting very frustrating.

LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
