I will take a closer look but I have a funny feeling it isnt there....the car is still getting the aircon sorted out... Im sure I am going to get murdered for the 134 conversion and the second hand compressor.... :)

could it be somewhere else? its 11/92 R32 GTR......

I never really noticed or felt the ATTESA working on mine. My bro thinks its what makes it squirm around in the wet when driving over standing water, but I keep telling him that its aquaplaning cause the rear tyres are too worn :roll:

My hicas light comes on after 10km of driving and stays on. After chasing around worring about what it could have been it turns out that I've got an aftermarket diff and that's the cause.

Well they didn't find the prolem today, they did work out that it comes on after about 4km of driving. But they couldn't get the HICAS ECU to do a diagnostic check, so it might be the ECU. It's going back in, in acouple of weeks, and it'll stay there till it's fixed this time.

4 wheel steer @ high speed and only up to 1.4 degrees i believe

Nope, not just high speeds. While parked, get a mate to yank your cars steering wheel to full lock (left or right) and watch the back wheels.

Jordan: You wouldn't experience ATTESA unless you own a GT-R or GTS-4. :D

sav man: have you tried getting in to HICAS diagnostic mode yourself? Its not all that hard: instructions are in the FAQ forum. Actual understanding the codes is a bit difficult though :rofl:

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      Yeah, I get that. I try to be as cost-efficient as possible with cars, and typically prefer to buy them at the bottom of their depreciation curve. I was looking at those Bilsteins too as they're roughly in the same price bracket as the BC's - lack of adjustability and being soft put me off, not that I want anything too hard. That's my issue with the Skyline, it's too expensive and it's reflected in my driving. I don't mind going full pelt as long as there's a gravel trap to catch me. Really, proper safety equipment is needed for total confidence. Well this just turned up for the BMW. I'll try and get the front together tomorrow and take some pics of the absolutely horrid rear end; perhaps I'll have a crack at the rear on Wednesday. I need to make the car drivable before the weekend as I'll be driving it over to London.

      It does sound like a fuse considering the indicators work..I’ll triple check when I’m free and report back.    thanks for the reply.

      While going through data logs late last week, I spotted a small issue with my WMI. My WMI starts to progressively inject at 11psi of boost. I'm using a 25psi cut in pressure switch on my WMI as an added safety and if the curve is linear, I should hit that 25psi on my WMI system around 13-14psi of boost.  As per my data logs, my WMI pressure switch only activates around 19psi of boost. This is causing my non WMI 4D map to trim for WMI. I'm presuming this is caused by the mechanical switch response time, injection curve not being linear or both.  I ordered a 2-10psi adjustable cut in pressure switch which should correct this. If this doesn't resolve it before my dyno appointment on Friday, I'll just remove the pressure switch temporarily and more than likely replace it with a pressure transmitter afterwards.    BTW Speedtek has yet to refund me.
