The remote was the original one that came with the car; I've taken it to Action Alarms in Osborne Park and the guy said he would need a working one first to be able to fix my stuffed one.

"Oh yeah well if he's so smart, how come he's dead?"

That does sound quite right to me, I wonder what system it is?

Sorry I'm the guy fixing remotes and I have looked at and fixed a lot of remotes, which we have never even sold even down to original remotes from manufacturers like Ford, Holden, Mitsubishi you name it I fixed them. But yes, sometimes I need to get an old remote working before I can come up with a new one, simply because I need to get to know what the old thing is doing. However in some cases repair is the only way, as we don't have every single remote control available as a new version. So if you would like to try me again, give me a call on 9242 4000 with your remote control in hand so that you can give me a gescription of it, that's just in case you don't know what brand it is. Even better, send me a digital picture and hopefully I'll be able to identify it from there.

Let's try again, shall we?

Cheers,

Norbert

Hey thanks for the reply MaxAction! I'm not sure if you remember me but I came to see you last Friday and we discussed taking apart my remote to have a look at it. Well I've been able to take it apart with out smashing it to bits, so I'll drop by sometime soon if that's alright by you.

Howdy, now that I have got the remote, as promised I'll try my best. I started to work on it today, but so far no luck. I cleaned up what your father tried to fix, but that wasn't it either. So I will give it another go tomorrow. As I said, in this case, seeing it is your only remote, I will only charge if I actually get it going.

I did fix the 2 Mitsubishi Remotes today and also the old guys Nissan remote. but yours is more of a challenge.

Well, I give you a call when I have something more positive to report.

Cheers,

Norbert

Howdy,

it is all good news for your remote, it is happening again, working away.

Man you are lucky, but call me brilliant if you must ;-)

Give me a call on 9242 4000 for a time to pick it up and test it against the car.

Cheers,

Norbert

PS: anyone else out there with remote control problems?

Brilliant! Thanks for the help, will get in touch with you soon!

Max,

You work for Action Alarms? I've got one remote that is being held together with good ol nitto tape - the other remote for my car disintergrated quite some time ago. Having one working remote ..... and being close to work ..... is this something that could be programmed within a lunchbreak? Or would I have to leave my car with you as well?

Hi Nizmo,

Usually we do those while you wait.

I'd suggest though. when you come down, please bring all the parts you may have of the two remotes and I will see if there is anything we could recover/repair for you. Quite often the old electronic can be repaired. Combine that with a new and you finish up with a pretty good looking and working remote for less than a new unit.

Max did a fantastic job in fixing my factory remote, I highly recommend his work. I was really lucky by the sounds of things! Just a piece of advice for all Skyline owners: look after your factory remotes! You only get one!

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
