Having FAST is all well and good but can anyone get a hold of the nissan australia software that actually spits out the prices ?

No can do buddy.

The dealerships use FAST to find out part numbers only. They then take that number and put it in a completely different system which controls their ordering/stock taking etc and I imagine that even if you could get the software on your PC you would still need to have a connection to the dealer network for it to be of any use.

Hi there guys does any one know any good sites for downloading this?. I have the 1.56 gig copy and it keeps saying i dont have enough space on my Hard drive for it when i have 120 gig free!..

Any ideas guys

Can anyone help i cant work out what to do? if anyone has a simple way of downloading it so it runs without having to download a million other item that would be good.

My copy which is the 1.56gb one works fine. just follow the instructions that should come with it and its fairly simple to install. If for some reason yours didnt come with instructions PM me and ill send you a copy.

At which stage are you getting an error?

Check all of your file paths in the setup.

this is correct. they run 2 programs at the same time and swap back and forward to transfer part numbers. you will need to be on the same system as them as they can acsess interstate systems to orderparts and get prices on stuff they dont carry. i asked the spareparts guys at work if they would lend me the program and they just laughed. apparently unless your a nissan dealership you shouldnt even have that program.

well of course.. thats how nissan dealers make their money. techs dont have to fault find anything these days :sick:

on a similar note on topic, does anyone know if it can be used to turn off the "key in ignition"/lights on/door open chime on my 99 stagea?

i dunno how nissan software works but i work for mazda and theirs you can change most alerts on the car.

if its anything like the r32, you unscrew the panel that sits above the drivers knees - attached to that is a relay - if you unplug the relay it'll stop the alert

    • Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice  
    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
    • The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.
    • Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
