Hey Guys,

Just got outa the car, and this has only just started happening about half an hour ago...

The car drives no problem normally, but the Tacho wont relect the revs accuratley.

Ok heres what happens the revs go up to 2K then wont go past, in fact they start creeping backwards steadily back towards 1K.

Would this be a problem with

-Tacho Buggered.

-ECU Issue

Or what else??

Just wondering what i should start pulling apart first, anyone got any ideas?

The most logical place to start would be the solder joints on the back of the dash cluster.a dry joint could possibly cause this but it does sound abit weird that they start going backwards.

If not the solder joints even just spray some contact cleaner on the connectors that go into the back of the dash cluster and maybe give a bit of a scrub with a cheap tooth brush. But in either case you would expect it to get better as the revs go up (because electrically the voltage is increasing)

souns simialr to the problem soarers have with blinky dash, thats is the solder joints cracking apart with age, my old jzz30 used to do that, after 30 minutes or so the joints expandedand made contact again, sounds similar?

My Fuel gauge does weird stuff like this. I will have a full tank for example and sometimes it just goes all teh way down to below the E. Like I have turned my car off, no fuel light comes on so I assume it just lost power to it. Then it comes up to just under a quarter then back down again. To get it to work I usually need to go round a right hand corner really fast or belt through a roundabout. Then it comes back up again. Pain in the ass really.

My tacho has begun going beserk...

Driving along reading fine, it'll flip over to the stopper past the red line, then back to zero, then oscillate at some random value ~2000rpm above where it is actually...

BIZARRE.

Anyone seen something similar?

      Its also very clearly made to take business away from https://theskylineshed.com/ which is legitimate and even has a physical address.

      The 'About Us' got me ..  I added something to the cart and clicked 'check out' and none of the payment options in the footer (ie those with buyer protection) were available. Stay the hell away from this one.

      No. Not true for any non-GTR R32. I think even the GTS4 has the GTSt knuckles with eye type lower shock mounts (as opposed to GTR fork lower shock mounts). The only R chassis in which something like the quote claim is true is the R34, on which the turbos have the fork type and the NAs have the eye type. **Edit: Actually I reserve the right to be wrong about the above statement. It might also be true on R33s. My memory on those shitboxen has faded too much.

      It's a scam. It has all the telltale signs: - The "business" doesn't have a physical address or really any kind of information listed - It's using a generic online store website template - The prices are ridiculously reduced. To good to be true cheap - Everything is in stock and can be ordered in any possible combination   I've seen a few of these for other products as well. Things like sunglasses for example. I'd say stay away from it! And maybe reach out to the real theskylineshed and let them know this exists. I doubt there is much they can do about it, but still.   I don't know if they would actually take your money if you ordered something. Or whether it is just for collecting credit card details to scam otherwise. I'm not game or stupid enough to try it.
