Hey Peoples

Im so bloody upset :P I've just noticed now the thingy that records how many KM you've done has stopped moving... Also the little thingy that records upto 999km (the thing you can reset) has stopped changing as well.....

The speedo/tacho/everything else is all operational.

I believe it can stop if its been wound back ??? Is it possible whatevers making it move has just broken ??

I just sort of relised now "hmmm i've been on 84k km for a long time now" :D

Anyways just wondering is there anything i should check ? Should I just goto an auto electrician or something ?? will they be able to see if the car has been wound back ?

thanks heaps:)

I guess thats one way of looking at it :D

I'd prefer to know though when my 100k km service is due though, as oposed to taking it on the 200k km :)

All seems to be working again though :D

Wouldn't you like it to stop working? To keep the Km's down? :(

"Mmmm, unexplained bacon."

Had the same thing.Once it stopped working, then when I was sitting at the lights it started rotating on it`s own,weird.Has happened about three times in 140,oookm`s.Hasn`t done it for a while though.

bloody hell its stopped working again

doesnt seem to want to work again now..

anyone got any ideas at all ????????

woah!! exact same thing here!! you're going to find she'll stop and start quite unreliably of it's own accord now. Mine's stuck or shuffles around the 91K mark now!!!

ok peoples..

i stupidily took the dash out just now... kinda got abit bored and my car/garage is way to close to my room :D

anyways i got to the odometer thingy and it wouldnt go forward or backwards realy, i poked at one of the main cogs for a while and sprayed some of that wd40 stuff.. got anoyed.. then poked at it somemore.. and it seems to go forwards smoothly now. you can kinda see what the problem is.. just need to poke at it..

I havnt actualy put it back in the car yet :angry: but i shall tommorow night after work, im fairly certain theres no way in hell im going to get the dash all back in, in one piece but im so excited to c if the odometer thingy works now ;)

i've got a feeling it will work but i will have screwed the speedo or something.. but its always exciting to see whats broken next :)

saved myself $200 if it all works however :) if not would of had to take out dash anyways... i guess.......

i stuck just the cluster bak in the car and the odometer/tripometer start rolling away nicely!!!!!!

its working like a charm now... tested it a few times now and it seems to be working fine, for now anyways i guess :)

yay !!!!!

just goto put the rest of the dash back in now grr :O

hmm the ol speedo is out by 20km now ;)

I had a play with it.. first it was below 20... then over by 20...

is there some trick to finding the right spot in the middle when you put the needle thing back on ????

sweet mother of god

i must of taken the cluster on/off my car atleast 30 times trying to find the right position for the needle.. it kept wanting to either jump forwards when you put the key in, or stay at 0 and be under 20km..

in the end i relised u can leave it in the car and just remove the plastic at the front ;)

it seems to be finaly working ok again :D i was comparing it the pfc and it seems to be off by like 2 or 3km but i dont think it was 100% to the pfc before hand.

:)

    • Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...
    • Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.
    • Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents
    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
