hey guys i have had the stagea off the road for a while (12 months) and noticed now the back cargo door isnt pulling itself shut anymore. Any ideas why and has anyone else had the same issue? I better start by checking the fuse but im pretty sure that isnt the problem so what else could cause it to suddenly stop workin? any tests i could do to check the motor is ok without removing the damn thing?

cheers

As you said, Id start with the fuse, there is a specific 20A fuse for this in the under dash fuse panel. Next check power at the fuse box then power at the motor. After that you prob have to start pulling things apart.

grab a test light, run it to an earth, and have someone flick the switch (or whatever it is) and see if any of the wires get a signal. If they do and it still doesnt work, then there is a problem in the lil motor i guess.

To take out the motor itself ain't too much of a problem, just unclip the door cover and remove the motor by undoing a couple of bolts. Its a brush motor and also 3 microswitch contacts in cct. If the brushes aren't worn out then maybe a switch is stuffed. :D

      From there it is trickier. Ecutek seems to be one of those closed ecosystems where everyone password protects their tunes which means I either choose a tuner and can't change from them and can't make any changes myself for any reason, or I have to buy the tuning software (about $4k) and then get someone to tune from scratch (which is not simple with all the multi dimensional tables these days). Once you buy about 300 "flash points" per ECU you can get it tuned and add their "RaceROM" function which hacks extra functionality like launch control onto the ECU, and also makes extra data available for logging over CAN Not sure what I'll do there yet; I'm tempted to use one of the overseas shops that does billions of remote tunes of the platform instead of starting from scratch locally, a lot can be done online these days.

      Can I log IAT eh? Well, can now So next thing was looking at data logging. Not straight forward because none of the motorsport displays have cracked the nissan/inifinti CAN and ECU based displays don't do g logging, lap timing, predictive laps etc.  So, I bought an Ecutek dongle from Tunehouse (Oz distributor). Even without a tune onboard that allows display and logging of about 50 parameters via Android (and presumably iOS) app. Approx 600 for the bluetooth + Usb version That gives me (pretty ugly but) functional dash display on Android And logging of these parameters I'll play around a bit over the break, but at least now I can make sure I have oil pressure when I get to some track testing.

      R33 headlight relay conversion?

      By Duncan · Posted

      I don't know what globes/headlight connector they run, but I'd be looking for a female adapter to plug into the existing headlight on one side. Something like this https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/256017245989 Then I'd use a pair of single input, double output relays (one for low, one for high), mount them in a spare space in the fuse box if you want to to look more original (and be easier to maintain). Then 2 new power sources from the main stud in the fuse box via a fuse to each relay. Low from the headlight adapter pin triggers low relay and high from the high headlight adapter pin triggers high and low. Earth the relays and new headlight sockets and off you go. Because it triggers off the original headlight all of the dipping/hi on/high flash all still works

      I reached 10 posts and wanted to make my build thread too but still can't add pictures to posts so I have no idea how it works 😂
