I tried searching but to no avail, but the problem I have is similar to this:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...opic=111715&hl=

EXCEPT

Mine constantly blows cold air instead of hot. Now I dont know if its just ambient air being sucked in and being blown through or that its conditioned air (because its been so cold lately) but it doesnt matter what temp i set it to, even FH, it still blows cold air. Im thinking its more likely to be conditioned air, since the AC worked perfectly over summer.

I was thinking its a sensor problem, but the AMB button still brings up the relative ambient temperature. Any ideas? Its not a fluid problem either, theres plenty of coolant in the radiator.

Also, my rear dimister (oh the irony) seems to never work also, are there any known or common causes for that? Any advice you can give to get it working again?

Thanks guys.

have a look at the little wires running on the window for the rear demister. Check for any breakages. If its not that then its probably just a connection problem elsewhere so find the wire coming from near your parcel shelf, splice it and multimeter it.

When you switch from hot to air or cold to hot, yours doesnt make any noise? Mine makes a whining noise and takes a bit of time so im assuming the motor which opens or closes, on mine, is on the way out, maybe yours is gone. You might wana try on a/c mode on economic mode, on no mode (no a/c or econ lights showed), on FH and FC, see if any of those make a difference.

I did some tests over the weekend like you said, and it keeps blowing air at the same basic temperature (as far as I can tell). Fan speed and direction all works fine (feet, face and demister) and all that, but theres no buzzing noise coming from inside like you mentioned.

Now this morning for some strange reason the bastard decided to blow warm toasty air on the way to work - which is fine in this weather, but it still wouldnt adjust the actual temp of the air coming out when i changed the temp put it on FC or FH.

      I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies.

      It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest.

      Use text replace function to auto-link to referred threads?

      Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks!

      It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers

      Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
