not 100% on this but did u replace the fuse u blew? or was it just one in the switch you got? cause if u blew one in the car it might be one that controlls some other stuff check to see if your cigi lighter works its on the same fuse as ur windwos i believe i know this from installing sound systems alway come accross this fun stuff so yeah check ur fuses inside the car and see if that helps i didnt even know was it possible to make it go from AWD to 2WD?? with just a switch u need a bit more then just the switch to make it work dont ya? well dont know if this post will help u just though it might be an idea seeing ive done something like this once before

if u blew the fuse in the switch it pretty much doing nothing right and with the fuse block (couldnt remeber wat the bugger was called lol) if u blow a fuse in there that can cause ill kinds of trouble when installing a system just cause i didnt grond someone correctly i blew one fuse that fuse took out my cigi lighter power windwos and water squiter thingos u know for the windshield so yeah all i had to do to fix was get a 50cent fuse and then it was all good hope it works

      R34 GTR Seats / No longer reclining

      By bilbo117 · Posted

      Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers

      Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
