G'day guys,

Few months after buying my very first skyline (34GTT) started to get some warning lights coming on, specifically the engine light and the traction control/slip light. The car shudders for a second as they come on and then drives absolutely normal, but the lights stay on. Then if I restart the car these warning lights turn off. Sometimes this happens straight from ignition and at other times approx 10 minutes into the drive, happens about once a week. Computer says that HICAS and ignition codes are coming up, not traction control. Any ideas?

its the coilpacks, apparantly the original ones are crap.

Had the same problem, changed to spitfires never had the lights pop up again

I remember years ago a 'reputable' QLD tuner telling me that he'd never heard of such a stupid thing as Nissan packs dying, I argued the point and refused to ever let him near my car again.

Wonder if he agrees now?

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
