Hi All,

I've recently bought my skyline! I just love it - a black, R33 GTS25T and lowered. Have got to say that is one good manual site...just wished I'd seen it before I bought mine about a week ago :ph34r:

Anyways it's probably been asked before, but since my car didn't have an insturction manual, there were two questions I had: Thx in advance

1) I was wondering if it was normal for the HICAS light to come on and the go off a second or so after starting up the car. It never comes on while driving.

2) My oil pressure light stays on for about 2 seconds and then goes off which is when the needle on the oil pressure gauge starts to move when I start up the car..this is normal right? As far as I know, the oil pressure levels vs. RPM are ok as far as I can tell...am I being paranoid?

They are nice cars!

Cheers fellas!

Most cars run through a self diagnostic when they start up.. it's when they don't light up you get worried :(..

nah it's normal.. hicas & abs & oil will all come on.. than go off.. oil should go up to about 6 until it's warmed up.. than head down to about 2 - 4 operating pressure..

glad you enjoy the manuals..

Phew, thats reassuring! Since when I checked it out, my mate who was with me at the time was getting more excited than the dealer! Took it for a short drive and before I realised it he's encouraging me to leave a deposit :D

Anyway, I'm pretty broke atm but eventually I want to put a cat back exhaust system in and a direct cold air intake. I heard that's supposed to put power up into the 200+ kW @ the flywheel alone! I want the car to still sound the way it does now though..kinda like a low growl...subtle but nice.

After that, tint the windows, put a nice pair of seats in like Duncan's and a proper head unit...and a new bonnet with a subtlely stylish but functional scoop to lower under bonnet temp.

Really want to change the oil and oil filter along with the spark plug and fuel filter myself but that might take a bit of developing my knowledge first!

Well, thats the excited ramblings of a new owner for now.

Cheers,

AF

Really want to change the oil and oil filter along with the spark plug and fuel filter myself but that might take a bit of developing my knowledge first!

all of those are pretty easy to do yourself, have fun!

thanks for the uploads Links, been looking for a while...

No worries Joh - AF man.. don't look @ the fly - count @ the rear wheels :P..

As for spark plugs and so forth - depends on what year the car is... everyone recommends oil + filter + spark plug change- depending on where you get it from if it's just been compliance oil + filter should have been done..

Good luck with it..

Thanks guys for the tips! But guess what? I was late for work one day and I swung my car into a tight park between another guy's car and the steel support beams...guess which one I hit??

It was the post - on my left rear panel just after the door :D Now I've got this mad scratch about 30cm lond and 15cm wide that looks like a giant car was sharpening its claws on the side of my car...it was barely one week old at the time :):D

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
