hey!

Though GTR-8OY wont read this:

I was in Japan, notably Tokyo about 12 months ago and it was the same story, HEAPS of vans, ( general courier style vans ) and taragos with huge chrome rims and exhaust/spoiler kits and lowered, looked crazy :D

But I did see heaps of skylines aswell, but mostly 4 doors, which at the time I had no idea existed * blush * The real head turners in Tokyo seem to be old cars which have been kept in beautiful condition because the registration expenses are phenonimal for those and have some sorta reputation attached to them.

Where abouts is GTR-8OY staying? I stayed at my dad's apartment in Yoyogi, near the park, which was about 15 mins walk from Shibuya and Shinjuku :D I really should hit my dad up for parts since he lives in Japan eh. *shakes head*

    • Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again. 
    • Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.
    • Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!
