yeah sonic silver is the business I dont wanna max out the page with photos - people on dialup may have issues

series 3 club FTW! landed in May, complied by June, love of my life

can someone throw me a PM for the meet spot of the cruise? I'm still trying to work out if I will head with this cruise or the cruise for a cause. Its time to bring out my new toy - and I wouldnt mind cruising with fellow Skyline brethern

please let us know if replacement of the G sensor does fix the problem. Very interesting and useful read once you've confirmed you have fixed it

dude I just read your first post and was offended by it, and i'm not selling the car - think before you type next time. Maybe refrain from whoring threads when you have no intention of actually purchasing. Series 3's were the last production run of the BCNR33 - they are the youngest, the cleanest - and the model which fetches the highest price in Japanese auctions. I know this because I searched for 4 months this year for a Vspec in this same series, and in this same colour - they are NOT easy find in this colour & this condition. Your cooking model series 1 95 does not come with the interior these do. More than likely you only got one drivers side airbag (as compared to twin in the series 3) unless it was optioned, and the steering wheel looks pretty average. Series 3 also comes with Xenon headlights that just about every 33 GT-R owner want to upgrade to if they have a series 1 or 2. I know how much Ookami has spent importing this, and I know how much I spent importing mine.... I am horrified he's already advertising it for less than $40k! The car is genuine, and the price is a bargain IMO. Sorry to see it have to go Ookami. I suggest you go and take another loan or second mortgage so you can keep her

hmmm, I wonder if its a shared reservoir in mine (ie for both ATTESA & A-LSD) If you leave yours in automatic mode (computer control) do you also hear a pump running when you immediately start the engine? I'll have to get a friend to start my car while I am listening underneath at the back - see if I can work out if its the ATTESA pump or the A-LSD.

just read it all - thanks for the link.... The FAST schematic you have put up looks exactly like the pump on the back on my diff housing - so that part is the pump that runs A-LSD? I have always been told the hydraulic fluid reservoir in the back right access panel in the boot is the reservoir for the ATTESA 4wd system on GT-R's - so i'm not sure if this is a shared reservoir on mine and only for A-LSD on your GTS-T? I can also hear an electric pump at the back upon startup of my car, seems to run for about 4 or 5 seconds then turn off - like its pressurizing. Do you think this would be the ATTESA system or the A-LSD?

Finally found my GT-R manual.... A-LSD Warning Light: If the light comes on with the engine running it may indicate that there is something wrong with the active limited slip differential system. Have the system checked by your Skyline GT-R dealer. If an abnormality occurs in the system, the A-LSD function will cease and the differential will operate conventionally. I dont like the way its worded - still very open to interpretation "may indicate there is something wrong".....

^^ would seem to tie in with what I experienced. However I would have thought a GT-R is a little bit tougher than to chuck a dummy spit at one decent launch with some possible wheelspin in the wet. I still think there must be an error with my ecu or the A-LSD itself

^^^^ yeah i've since tried in the dry and everything completely normal - no more A-LSD light.

thanks govich - now i've re-read his thread and you guys rekon the A-LSD light coming on means its failed or turned off - makes a bit more sense. I've had some confusion with this as other GT-R owners have told me that when the light comes on it means its working! The "clean" dashboard normally means everything is working, its only when a light comes on something is wrong. Kind of like stories some people tell that when the Hicas light comes on it means its working The reset obviously did the trick. I'm still left wondering if I have a problem with the Active LSD itself or its this aftermarket ECU issue. I'm tending to think there is something up with the ECU as the rest of the car is flawless.

Hey guys, i've performed a search and found some topics covering the A-LSD, however my question is a little different to the information provided so far, so i'm hoping one you resident GT-R experts can help me out. I recently imported a series 3 BCNR33 V-spec. The car has an Impul ECU that came with it from Japan, and a Nismo 320 cluster I installed. Normally when I turn the ignition on, the A-LSD light will illuminate for the standard cluster warning light fault check.... as soon as you start the engine, the A-LSD light goes off. The scenario: Since i've had the car on the road, I have not seen the A-LSD light come on once whilst driving. The other day (my first time in the wet with the car) - I did a wide open throttle launch from first gear and into second on a very wet road. The front torque meter pretty much went maximum on the launch and all through first gear. After backing off midway through second gear and slowing down, I noticed (for the first time ever) the A-LSD light was on - and it wasnt going off. I drove for about 4 minutes more back home, then turned the car off. Started it again about 20 minutes later and went for another drive, the A-LSD light was now off. I havnt seen the light come on since, except for when you start the car. Now my questions: 1) is the A-LSD light a "fault" light or is it supposed to illuminate when the specific computer controlling it has commanded it to come on? 2) do I have some form of error (with the Active LSD itself) since the light came on solid and remained on even with sedate driving afterwoods? 3) Is it just something to do with the fact its running the Impul ECU and its getting that error mentioned in Paulr33's A-LSD DIY guide (http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=107656 any advice or help much appreciated

Free Bump Demon.... My Series 3 Vspec landed about 3 weeks ago now, picking it up from compliancer tomorrow Sorry our time spent talking didnt result in buying your car

out of interest, what are the R34 xenon's worth new from Nissan?

I have bought a set of series 1 GTR headlights for the compliancing process. $1300 is the approx price for one (1) BNCR33 series 3 Xenon headlight assembly, new, from Nissan in Australia.

i've since been told by another industry person approx $1300 - still puts them up in the expensive catergory. What do you think they sell for new from Nissan?

i've also since been told the halogen conversion on this type of lens ruins them - the reflectors and shape are designed for Xenon, hence converting them to halogen makes them duller than a normal h1 headlight

done and done

I too would like to know. What is the deal under SEVS compliance? In specific, I have a series 3 BCNR33 that will be arriving and complied in the next couple of weeks - and there is no way i'll be letting anyone destroy genuine xenon headlights from Nissan. Australian Nissan dealerships have quoted me figures of approx $1650 per unit - so over $3k worth of genuine parts to be destroyed?

Can I see a photo of the interior if at all possible? What do you mean by "red stitch"? Is it just standard? I am currently signed up with prestige motorsport and am after a Series 3 vspec. Havnt yet found what I am after and have been looking for over 2 months now. Saw your thread ages ago, but wasnt down for black duco - i've since changed my mind, black has grown on me alot
