where did you get your new one from, or did you get the old one re gassed?

any chance that someone can post a 'how to do it' with pictures for this - particularly given all our stageas are getting older (as are we!…) and this is going to happen more and more.. It's happening to mine now, so I'd love 1) a guide to changing it 2) any suggesting where to get the current one re gassed 3) or where to get a new one from….

If anyone near melb has their stock r34gtt coils lying around after doing all the above (fantastic) work send me a msg as I'm looking for some!

nobody has had their 4wd really pulse every 16 seconds and tell me why??

ok, pulled the relay out, and the 4wd warning light goes on.. So something in the 4wd system is getting this relay to pulse on every 16 seconds... I had a read of and maybe it is something similar (though my abs light is not on). Anybody with suggestions?

Ok, coils fixed, but the relay (well, it sounds like one) is still clicking every 16 seconds. It was in the engine compartment, lhs next to the steering, black case in front of the brown box. Can anyone tell me what it is?? ie

my s2 rs4s has developed a clicking noise from the dash - somewhere behind the steering wheel it sounds like a decent sized relay is clicking. It's doing it all the time (with the engine going) ie even if I'm stationary and not in gear.. It's also happening at a consistent interval ie about every 16.8 seconds. Does anyone have any idea what it might be? It could be related to my other problem, which started a few days ago, though possibly not - ie my coil light is on, so one of them might have a fault (speaking of that, if anyone has a link to a 'how to change your coil please post it as I'm sure it's up here somewhere but I can't find it (I think 'search' is having problems tonight..).

he is from tassie, they don't have cameras yet..

thanks. I did get out the pliers and check them all, all good... I'll check the plugs in the morning.. And it's both the cluster ie speedo and tacho, plus also the ones in the middle ie voltage and front/back torque split.

good for you, I found getting each one in/out to be a pain, and as I said "any other thoughts on what the problem might be??" I suspect it isn't a fuse problem ie I was also looking for sugestions.

I know this is an old post, but I've just had the lights behind my speedo, tacho, and dials in the central column go dark in my s2 stagea (ie the cluster lights).. Not so good when you are driving at night as it makes seeing your speed dificult.. Looking at the fuse translations I checked 'meter', 'electrical parts' x 2, and room lamp (just in case) and they were all fine (pulled them out and checked with the meter..) - does anyone have any idea what other fuse I should check or any other thoughts on what the problem might be??

I only paid about $20K for my (then!) emaculate R34 GTT thirteen years ago when it was only a couple of years old, there is no way I'd be paying $15k for one now.... I still recon you should be able to pic up a reasonable one for well under $10k - rember, they are getting to be pretty old cars now...

Wouldn't go anywhere near the first one... And $15k is way to much for a stock r34GTT even in ok condition.. I couldn't get $10K for mine a year ago, as there are a lot more sellers than buyers... If the body needs a lot of work (as per your comments) I recon you'll get it or something like it for WELL under $10K.....

Part for the front end, do you mean an engine? I think that is the main part at the front...

pm also sent - I wanted to know where you'd sent it to as my 185,000Km R34 is going to either go pretty cheap or be sent to someone to pull apart and sell the parts ie turbo, intercooler etc.. (It's problem is the engine has started to rattle - most likely bearings - and I can't be bothered trying to do anything about it....). Any chance I could get a response?
