Ok I have a minor problem. I have a pulsing vibration. Similar to when a uni goes. It can be seen throught the shifter in 3rd and felt through the car in 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th. Has anyone come across this or similar problems before. I heading to get the wheels balanced and wheel alignment checked tomorrow. Car has Only 56 000km's on it.

Ok wheel alignment was done today. But has made no difference. The vibration is still there. The revs stay the same while driving . Revs do fluctuate at idle though. I'm thinking it's between the g/box and the diff. As it can be felt through the seat while driving and seen through the shifter but only when in 3rd.

What a decent workshop in Bris that know there shit when it comes to Gtr's

Yeah shifter moves back and forth slightly not sure on clicking sound at all

If you go slowly in 2nd or 3rd and then accelerate and then decelerate and then repeat the cycle, is there any clicking sound, or sudden movement in the shifter?

If there's vibrations going on whilst at constant speeds whilst cruising, I suspect tailshaft

If there's clicking at low speeds on accel/decel cycles I suspect diff oil needs changing

If there's a lot of movement in the gear lever with vibrations, I'm wondering about bushes/springs too

You've got a good Brissy mechanic?

Yeah not sure i've only had the car a week. Does anyone know of any decent mechanics?

U can notice the shifter vibrate in 3rd the most. Do the tailshafts fail? Would it be the centre bearing?

You running stock rims, or rims with the same rolling diameter & width at all corners?? I heard that different profile tyres & different width rims could cause problems with the awd system on earlier gtr's. Just a quick check. After that, +1 for the possible tailshaft culprate.

    • I don't really know general street pads too well, but there is no reason you can't get a low dust, long wearing, no squeal pad that works for those calipers at a reasonable price....they would just be a low end to medium price daily style pad.  If new pads don't have much bite or they loose it over time, it is probably just the pad glazing up which you can fix by giving them a good thrashing every now and then (or get the mechanic to deglaze them at next service) Track or semi track pads are where you have to put up with excessive dust (and potentially squealing as a side effect of that) in return for good bite and performance when very hot. Street pads have nothing like that sort of punishment, even long downhills with the brakes on are easier than a track session
    • lol yeah I'll check that, reminds me of the LDV thread!  I don't think that is the problem here, the starter doesn't even solenoid click. I did do a super quick test by removing the starter motor's power cable from the engine bay fuse box and the battery voltage was still 10v, so something super fishy is going on. BTW here is a R33 fuse box table I threw together from a few sources....use at own risk! R33 Fuse Box and Sources.xlsx
    • Johnny's approach, throw all the Nissan electronics into the trash. Best thing I've done to my shit box, go DBW.
    • Sounds like the JAX guys must have installed some really awful pads, are they BenShit/BenDicks pads by any chance?
