hey all,
first post here on sau although i've been a long time reader and learner. I have purchaced an r32 gtr 94' not v-spec. 77,xxx k's on the clock. its a beautiful machine there are just a few things that are bothering me. so if you have any past experiences or opinions i would love some help.
the 3 major problems are:
1st- i am getting error code 16 on my altessa ets ( lateral g sensor ) i pulled up the glove box, had a look at the unit its self the indicator is not displaying red so i am assuming the unit its self is fine. what else can it be. tried checking the harness terminals for 2.5v but multimeter is displaying "open line" what could this mean?
2nd - at times when shifting down gears the clutch will engage very early coming from 3rd to 2nd and make a slight grinding sound, i thought it could possibly be the throwout bearing but i am no mechanic and my opinion really counts for shit due to my ill understanding of how the clutch and transfer case work
3rd - the tachmeter will bounce all over the place sometimes displaying off the chart readings whilst maintaining normal revs.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
I know everyone is going to tell me to take it to a mechanic, which brings me to my next question. I live on the northside of brisbane and I'm looking for a reputable mechanic, not some junkie from east coast that will promise the world and deliver nothing. is there any body who specialises in 32gtr's? travel around bris is not an issue.
please if you need pics or anything please ask i would be more than happy to supply anything you need to make an assessment.
thanks sau.
Lewis
