my blonde moment today: (i feel so dumb)

Yesterday driving home from work i started smelling this plastic burning smell from my car when i was nearly home - and i thought it might of been just some kinda toxic fire in the area or something so i got home opened up the bonnet - no smell - that was cool - i walk round to the rear of my car and it was fairly strong but im thinking couldnt be much to catch alight round there so i cant be that must be the smell in the area.

Get inside and mum goes "whats that look on ya face" and i say "smell something funny coming from my car like a plastic smell is it the car or the area" - "its the area today she said" So i didnt think anymore about it.

Get in my car today get to pretty much the same point i started smelling it last time and smell it again - get to orrong rd and it is really bad and i figure out its the car. Anyway theres a light patch shining on my passengers side dash and i saw like heatwaves coming up from it so im like "oh my god maybe its my stereo equipment wires or something and because its coming from the rear of the car could be the battery" I had my sub put in my ZX by a mate and you need special wires of the battery otherwise it could catch fire which i eventually got done but im thinking maybe it wasnt transferred into my skyline and its wired wrong or something.

So anyway where i used to work is about 5mins away - car dealership. So i drive there - noone done the back in the workshop so i run barefoot to the service advisor "jason my car has an electrical burning smell" jason goes" Todd (electrical n import expert) is in Terry (sevice managers) office go see him" So i burst into Terrys office not knowing at the time that Todd was giving in his resignation and Todd goes "ok then i'll be there in a minute"

So i go back down the back and i get closer to the car and i see this white thing hanging from the exhaust. This whole deal was just a plastic bag that got stuck to my exhaust! I felt so dumb!! Why didnt i think of that?!!!

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
