Recommended Posts

Okay, this is a NEWBIE question as i own my Skyline now for only 2 weeks..

There is a button on the left hand side of the driver's seat which said Snow/A-T/Power.. anyone know what the differences are?

I leave mine on Power all the time.

One more question.. with my turbo i left my car idling for 1 -2 minutes after a good run, the turbo then makes a clinking noise? is this meant to be?

thanks all....

clinking sound, could be some engine parts cooling down...

my bro's civic also does the same, it goes clink clink clink clink clink clink

sounds like a timer, I think nothing to worry about, in fact all cars I had or driven in the past made that kind of tiny clicking sound after engine turned off... the sound should be pretty faint, you can only hear it if you're near the engine bay, it it's very loud, then maybe something is wrong

I agree with Inark....just the cooling down.

Pushead, there is a pdf (Sky is the Limit) one of the guys have written up, which give a brief intro into your new( well...new 4 u) Skyline. Do a search for the title, its quite helpful, will answer question u have, and question u dont know u have... :)

If u cant find it here, go to

forums.skylinesdownunder.com and also search there

no point in leaving the power button on, if u notice when on hard acceleration power button lights up automatically and turns off again once u back off and the o/d button just stops from shifting into 4th but upto around 140-150kms then I'd be needing 4th...:D

    • some people are still around weirdly enough - most people just use facebook now to ask the same 12 questions tho XD  
    • Omg Rezz! Yep we're still here and actually seeing a trickle of oldies coming back.  How's things? 
    • So I raised the car up a fair bit for shipping - see image - then lowered it again when it arrived. I then rushed to get an alignment in NL before the track and the shop just wasn’t anywhere near as precise as what I got in Japan. The guys that did the alignment this week said there was a fair amount of toe in the rear that could have contributed to the understeer. It was also the case that the rear camber went from about -2 to -3 at the shop in NL. However, since I’ve now got slightly wider tires in the rear - NS2Rs run wider than Accelera 651S - I could only get a minimum of -3 in the rear now due to clearance. Front is now -2.75 (-2.45 in minutes) due to being raised a bit (previously -3 in JP). So it’s likely a combination of the two factors, camber and toe. The issue now is I have more camber in the rear than the front and the next step on the front Cusco arms will put me at -3.5ish front which seems a bit excessive to me. The weird thing is I’ve never had any understeer at the track in Japan but they are very different circuits - Japanese circuits are much slower than the one I’ve been to here.    I’m probably going to have to start another thread for the E90. The plan is sort of to keep it as a daily but progressively mod it into a track car - honestly, you need a cage for the sort of speeds you go here. Just ordered the M3 front arms btw.  Love the car despite it being in pretty shitty condition. Oil analysis came back okay and it seems to have stopped consuming oil since fixing a load of engine bay things. Saw yours is a 335i right? f**king mistake on my part getting the DI N53 over the N52, fuel economy is insanely good though at 14-16 km/L.   Cheers, it’s great to see the benefits and pitfalls of different places. I’m contemplating going back to the U.K. around next year as the cost of living in the Netherlands is just ridiculous. GF is nagging me to settle and buy a house but I don’t know what LSD to buy. 
    • Have you seen the Milwaukee Train Horn? It's a beast! I stumbled upon it while browsing for upgrades. I'm thinking of adding it to my ride for some serious sound. Here's the link if you wanna check it out: https://bosshorn.com/products/milwaukee-train-horn. Anyway, thanks again for sharing your method.
    • Anybody home...? I used to moderate this part of SAU about 20 years ago... hard to beleive it's still around basically unchanged with all the old posts pinned at the top. Amazing to read all those posts again.  If anyone drops by, I'm still in Japan (Nishinomiya, between Osaka and Kobe).  Cheers 🙂
