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

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
