When my light went on I assumed it was overheating a little because I was on the race track and since my fix for the problem was to do about 3 km at about 70km/h to cool it down this seemed right, however, I have since discovered that there is a separate light for overheating transmission.

This is in a 1999 R34 which I'm expecting to be relevant to you despite your car being uglier :rofl:

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but this exact thing happened to my SII auto Stagea today... .... whilst cruising at 100kph about 3000rpm, engine stuttered a bit like a rough gear change, then an "A/T" orange warning light showed up. Light went off and it happend again a few mins later. Got to a traffic light and engine stalled on me. Started up again straight away with no problems?!?!?!?!

My stagea manual says - A/T Mode Switch

"... should there be a problem with the system the POWER light will flash for about 8 seconds and then go out."

Rested the car for bout 1/2 an hour, started her up again and all appeared to be ok. Checked fluids by looking at the transmission dips stick and it looked pretty full.

Any ideas guys??? Can anyone recommend a local mechanic(s) in inner city syd that know stuff about stageas???

Thanks for the replies.

wow I have never seen that light, for a sec I thought u may of been getting confused with the O/D light which is also orange and between the indicators. Hope I never do see it either. Or is this only on the S2, I never knew it was even there. As for the flashing power button my old S13 180SX used to do that occasionally but the TPS was also fubar among other things, did a manual conversion....that fixed it :/:P

Topkart R33 - oil level seams to be full, a little dirty (she is due for an oil change soon) but still full.

66yostagea - sounds like it could be a manufactures fault... how long ago did this happen to you? Should i not worry about it as the problem may just go away by itself?

Mr_RS4 / yokotas13 - Always wanted a manual stagea, this would be a great excuse to do the conversion!

DaveB - ECU error code check procedure? Is this something that i can do myself???

darrinspencer - Light is still on after doing a manual conversion?!?!? My manual conversion might have to wait till i get to the bottom of this A/T thing :happy:

Thanks for the replies guys!

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
