Hey guys just a few noobie questains:

1) firstly my car comes with the motorised front spoiler/extention. however it seems to always go up whenever i pull handbrake down. is this factory settin. it seems that the car wont let me drive with the spoiler down.

2) i have check my coolant levels and the over flow bottle levels(all good) but my temp sensor is still displaying a bit above half. is this also normal? my brothers R32 show only half way.

thanks for you time peoples.

(1) Front spoiler comes into action at approx 75-80 km/hr. It wont activate until that speed. If the hand brake is on and you press the spoiler down button, the spoiler comes out -> t his is for cleaning purposes for the spoiler. It goes back up once you disengage the park brake.

(2) Could be a slight innacuracy in the temp sender unit ?

Provided it doesnt keep rising, but stays at approx that temp, it should be okay ?

#2 may need a new thermostat or yeah, sender unit. Have you flushed the radiator?

If you get time take the radiator out and flush it with a hose. I used to work at a radiator place where we took the tanks off and put rods down each tube, you wouldnt belive how much crap was in a radiator till you saw it, even newish cars developed gunk in them after a couple months.

    • Hey, yeah I really like the color. Only paint I'd rather have is KN6, but those are expensive. Right now I'm trying to get the car to the point where I can get it tuned to 370hp so the whole setup can be driven legally, and pass the next inspection that is already due anyway. Beyond that lots of rust fixing I'm afraid, winter project is most likely going to be a front end teardown and fixing the strut tower rust. I know these can be driven daily but I don't think I will do so anytime soon. Will post a build thread soon with a list of issues and futute plans.   Cheers
    • Wanted to reply to this topic. I'm in the somewhat same boat with our Stagea. I'm trying to install a different rear diff. The Stagea/Skyline uses mounts on top of the rear diff for the ATTESA pump. Any way you can relocate the pump? I did find this kit https://theskylineshed.com/products/nissan-oem-attesa-mounting-kit-to-suit-r32-r33-r34
    • So here's the deal, my wife picked up an S2 AWD Stagea. Super cool, clean car. Looks like the owner in Japan went track spec as it's got some heavy modifications including Exedy twin disk, tension rods, coilovers, GTR brakes, oil cooler & a Nismo 2 way rear diff. Now, cool mods for sure. But, she is just using this as a casual daily driver. The 2 way rear is AGGRESSIVE. It also has solid subframe bushings & poly diff bushings. So that doesn't help either. So far I've tried changing the diff fluid to the correct fluid. Even tried a little friction modifier. No help. This thing clunks, skips the tires & has some slight whine/NVH when driving. Might sound like I'm being picky, but just trying to find a better solution. Here in the states, it's impossible to find a Stagea rear diff. No luck. I do have a 300zx non-turbo diff. Same ratio, 5 bolt axles. On the Stagea, you need both front & rear diff ratios to match. This car is a 4.083. I'd like to just swap a normal rear diff into this thing. Nothing fancy. Even open diff is fine. She's not tracking the car LOL The difference is that the ATTESA pump mounts to the top of the rear diff. There are 3 total mounting points for the pump on top of the diff. With all this being said, what would be the best way to go about this? I could remove the Stagea diff & see if I could get somebody to possibly weld the 3 tabs/mounting points onto the 300zx diff so we could mount the pump on the 300zx diff. I could swap the internals from the 300zx into the Stagea diff but this is not in my comfort zone. Is it possible to mount the ATTESA pump to the underside of the car? Sorry for the paragraph. Just trying to figure out how to go about this. Any help is much appreciated!
