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.

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
