now i've never driven a GTR, but in my r33 gts-t the fuel light never came on when turning the ignition on. in fact no car i have ever driven has had it come on when you turn the ignition on.

My bad (partly). My R30 does, my R32 doesn't.

My r33 gtst fuel light came on today and then disappeared with less than a quarter remaining. I'm going to drive until it start beeping like hell (I hope it does), as I want to see how many kms I can get out of half a tank. So far I've managed 125km with some heavy driving and the cars stock apart from a cat-back. Aiming for 150km + :)

pretty sure it won't beep at you. mine never has in any car i've owned.

as for it coming on then going off, were you going up a hill at the time? in my pulsar at anything below about 1/4 of a tank the light will come on when going up a steep hill

^^^what a panzy. can see who wears the pants in that relationship. LOL

i have to get fuel cause the missus has small hands and can't hold the trigger in long enough to fill the tank without getting sore hands. doesn't bother me though since i do most (all) of the driving.

    • Big claims here.  Any links up on the website ?   
    • If your HP goal is reasonable and you are not drifting. Buy a new R34 box.  If the above is not true, buy a wrecked R33 box and put a gearset in it.  CD09 are not as strong as you think and the cost of / mess around of the conversion puts you in gearset territory.    Also the deal above is awesome,, get that  
    • Just got back from a little hands-on with a G58 Baron....I was thinking about this... ..best I can figure it, that pinny was tail-ended ...I didn't really think about the wiring, because all that mattered was the tank and pump cradle (I think I mentioned the pump itself I couldn't vouch for)...which didn't matter, as you said you'd be replacing the pump anyway.... ...'for some reason'....and I imagine this is the panel shop's doing... they've replaced the cradle wiring with a metre of 7-core trailer loom, and attached the loom plug (from a different car) to that. The actual cable run from the top of the pump cradle, to fuel pump harness end in boot, is maybe 60cm in length...so I've no idea why they did this... ....the connector in the boot of the pinny, is not going to help you here...because in theory, it should still be present on your car. On top of that, because they've done what they did, we have no idea which colours of the trailer cabling, have been connected to what on the fuel pump cradle (pump +/- , shield, fuel guage/low-level senders)... ...this means, best approach is to remove the pump cradle, and re-work it now ...not later. That is, if you were going to replace the pump, do it, replace the soft lines at the same time...and sort the wiring out (replace that trailer cable with the wiring loom off your old cradle)...
    • Well, maybe not. The main feature of Chinese manufacture seems to be incredibly variable quality, coupled with an apparent willingness to find a way to see even the stuff that fails QC. So the military could still take the cream of the production run and somehow sell the "sellable but not really useable" stuff to the stupid round eyes on the other side of the world.
    • Have you adjusted the clutch pedal rod? You can wind it in to shorten it. Just can be a cnut to get to.
