Ok so my girl was driving her stagea along the other night and whilst driving along she heard a click and everything cut out (engine,brakes,power steering, stereo, head lights etc) now it wont start and we have no accessorie lights, the parkers work but no head lights interior light works and so do the hazards, i have checked every fuse and they are all fine and i am hopeless with electrics so i am stumped on this one.

Any one that can help it would be much appreciated

It is a series 1 97 model rs four stagea

Have an auto electrician look at the imobiliser, sounds like it cut in and won't turn off.

hey dude cheers for the reply nina called the immobiliser ppl and apparently they have a safety mechanism so they cant cut in??? although the light for it is not flashing any more

there is a main relay and/or fuse in pretty much every car. have a look for that. might be affecting things.

i had a look at all of them and they looked fine , it is wierd that it cut everything out though??

Do you have dash lights?

Find the ECU and give it a whiff. If it smells like its fried the board, you might be up for another ECU.

Try plugging in another ECU anyway to see if it kicks back to life.

A mate of mine had a similar problem on his Nissan, except the car wouldn't start at all. He called in an auto sparky and the cause was dodgy connectors on the positive battery terminals.

Off topic, but I noticed you live in Tamborine Mountains. I'm tatking the Stagea for it's first camping trip up there this weekend. What temperature does it get down to over night? Am I going to freeze by nuts off?

if you manage to freeze em off can i have them to hang around my mirror, seems every one els has gone the fluffy dice and i dont like trends so i think a set of fluffy testicals will be awesome.

I have been caught this way myself. Even if the terminals appear tight it is a good idea to undo them, clean the battery posts and inside the clamps with emery tape or sandpaper and retighten. It may not be the answer but it won't take long.

this may sound dumb but have you tried to jups start it before it happend . my mate juped his car off mine and must of jumped it backwards . brought my car back and then i went to drive and had the same prob . it killed my altinator and drained all f#%k out of the battery . it just a thought as if your battery doesnt have enough power your immobiliser wont dissarm.

Haha, thanks for the replies guys :thumbsup:

I spotted a green RS4 up Mt Tamborine. Anyone of you guys?

That is me. I live here. Stag went to coast on tilt tray today to get Mrs 66 indescretion with concrete water tank fixed.

Will be very interesting to find out what is wrong with Peterman Stag.

My S2 has just started doing some strange things too. When idling if I give the high beams a flash everything stops for a second, motor stops, lights go out. no ignition lights. Sometimes when I apply the brakes while driving everything gives a flicker. Today I turn the key to start up and nothing happens at all. Try again a few seconds later and everything works normally. Does this sound like a bad connection on main fuse perhaps.

cheers Craig

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
