Hi there, I too live around epping and I used to take my car to a couple of the places around that side of town. However I have been taking my car to RACEPACE Motorsport for the past few years now and even through they are on the other side of town and takes me almost an hours drive it is still worth it. The guys there only work on skylines and know these cars inside out. Well worth the time, money to send my car down there.

Was it working when you pulled it out from the car.

edit here are some pics of mine.

Anyone in melbourne? A cruise would be good.

when it was time to do mine i just replaced the center bearing and got the tail shaft re-balanced. Worked out well

I'm fairly sure that you can still buy these from Nissan

This may help you Bleeding.pdf

That's bloody awesome work , I have been hitting my head on a brick wall for 5 years sesrching for this info. Cheers

I'm also to interested in the front bar , center console , AC compressor. Pm me

Here is mine Colour: Wine red mica First Reg: 30/10/92 Number: ? of 100 (16930) I think it may be 30, not too sure. KMS: 193,000 - Still have log book Dealership: Col Crawford Nissan NSW Owners: 3 Purchased: June 05 Locale: Melbourne Car is still stock except from a few minor things such as remote oil filter, Spitfires coils, GT 2560R , power FC, exhaust, 700cc Sards, Bosh 040, Adj Cam gears. Recently I got all suspension and bushes front/Rear, ball joints , tail shaft, drive shafts, wheel bearings, ect...Done Still have the original stereo too

Awesome, now i have to ring nissan up and find out what build no. mine is. I do still have the oringal log book, but i cant see where the biuld no. should be.

hahaha fair call. Yes someone start the register, The only person who i can think of the top of my head is beer baron who has a Aus one. That not a bad price, looks like they are holding there value, At the time of me buying mine i paid 32k for it and that was 5 years ago.

I do still have the car. I have been thinking about selling it though as it's time i start a family. That is a good idea about the register, would be interesting to see how many are left.

Was that about 4 years ago at the other end of fed square? If so that could of been me that drove pass

how about getting console and running a diag on the car. This will tell you what sensor is at fault, from there if there is a senor or two that fails, you could borrow the parts and re-test. This will also show you if parts of the wiring is damaged, I hope this helps you.

Have a look at my 2nd post when i started this thread. To me it seems to be the mode door actuator that is giving you the trouble. I had to change mine over because i was not able to change modes at all. mine was stuck on the windshield. The location of the mode door actuator is on the drivers side. Open the drivers side door and crouch down on the ground. Move your seat as far back as possible. (this will help you) Stick your head in the drives foot well and turn your head to the left and look slightly up. You will see what i'm talking about. I posted a pic in my second post. It's the first photo. Sometimes the arms just need a bit of lubrication as the they tend to get stuck. or sometime the harness may not be plug in all the way. Or the motor could of just died. When you are in the diag mode and repeating step 3 have a look to see if you can hear the motor or see if the arm is trying to move. They are fairly cheap to replace, just go to your local jap wrecker and have a look around. I hope all this helps.

Climate Control Diagnostics R32 The climate control has a diagnostic mode. Enter the diagnostic mode by pressing the OFF button for five seconds within ten seconds of turning the ignition on. Sensor check Sensor check is selected by pressing HOT switch (the red triangle) while in diagnostic mode. The microcomputer detects whether each sensor input signal is within correct parameters. The results are displayed on the screen. If normal, a "20" is displayed. If abnormal the failed sensor number is displayed. The sensor numbers are as follows: 20 - all is normal 21 - outside air sensor 22 - Inside air sensor 23 - Water temperature sensor 24 - Intake temperature sensor 25 - Sunload sensor (small sensor on the left hand side of the dashboard near the windscreen) 26 - PBR 27 - Refrigerant temperature sensor This should tell you if any of your sensors are faulty This file should help you if you get stuck, Heater.pdf

have you put it into diag mode and tested all the sensors? In the pass i have found that during summer time the heater will not run hot because the sensors know that the cabin is already hot, the only i have got it to pump out hot air during summer is to hold down the hot button so it say's FH. So in saying that i would check the sensors.

Problem fixed , turned out that the motor that controls the vents which is located on the drivers side of the center console was stuffed. ( the first pic i posted up) Went down to my local jap parts wrecker and got another one. All good cheers.

After searching through the forums i think it might be the mode door actuator. (not my pic) Located on drivers side. i have changed modes and watched to see if it moves and stays in the same position. So i think it's dead. Can this be pulled apart and fix or do you have to replace them edit... this is so strange on the passengers side where you have the other servo where it controls the hot/cold ( again not my pic) will not move when you change from hot to cold but where the air is coming out from the top dash on the windscreen you can feel it change ie.. get's hoter and colder. i checked both and the rods are still connected to both servos. I'm i just unlucky and have had both motors fail at the same time? has anyone had both fail at the same time.

Hi all, The air will not come out from the face vents nor will it come out from the feet vent. Air only comes out from the windscreen vent. The heater works as i can feel hot to cold air change but can not change modes from face to feet to face/feet. I have put the unit into diag mode and ran though the steps. The arrow's appear when you cycle through the modes so it seems the unit is working. I can see the little arm move backwards and forwards , which is located to the right hand side at the back of the center console. You have to stick your head in the passengers foot-well and turn your head right and looking slightly upwards. I have also pulled the front console out including radio and climate control system to see if there is another arm with a rod of some sort that connects to something but i can't see anything at all, or a relay of some sort. Has anyone had a problem like this were they can't change from face to feet to face/feet.

The 7m- GTE dose not like big boost on standard motor. Also they do tend to leak oil a lot more then RB's do. The main problem is that toyota did not torque down the head enough. Which is why a lot of guys go the metal gasket route and new bolts all round. I would not go as far as saying the 7m-GTE is a better engine then the RB If you have ever pulled apart an old 7m-GTE and seen the oil pump setup on these then you will see why. These engines were designed before the RB25/26. If you are talking about 1jz-GTE or 2jz-GTE then yes you are correct. If i had to decided to either buy a 7m-GTE or RB i'll choose the RB , mainly because parts, standard or after market are so easy to get for RB.

The thing is that this was not a personal car, the log book clearly stats which offer has been driving the car. And by the look of the log book this car is shared between a more then one offer.

Trust me this is the real deal. However this has no lights or radio equipment inside. How do i know this is the real deal? Because when the car was dropped off it was dropped of by the vic police and seconded if you ever look in the glove box you will see the VP form Vechicle Log book. which on the front of it will have the vehicle reg. no. And if you look through the book you will see drivers name along side other reg no.s If i was to post a photo of the log book i dare say i would get into a fair amount of trouble. My point is be carefull because you don't know who is watching these days.

Spotted unmarked cop car at my mate's work getting some work done on it I do have more pics
