My nm35s pop up screen has started to turn off after a 1min or so after I put up the fuel useage function which is then followed by a black screen and some Japanese writing, has anybody got any idea whats happening and how it can be overcome.

gerry, time for the language conversion and all this will be solved because you will see the message in English.

I would guess that you have selected the display to turn off. From memory you need to select the bottom left button then scroll down to the second selection down. This should turn this feature off. (I think)

Cheers

Andy one problem with the english conversion its called money and theres not alot around at the moment. Actually I,ve just gotten onto a Japanese translator locally as I have the full Japanese service history with the car and want to find out if the turbo has been changed, but thanks for your suggestion I,ll try and sort it tomorrow.

Thanks Gerry

i would doubt given the fact that the car was only in japan for a few years that they changed the turbo, unless you suspect they have fitted an upgrade/high-flow.

my turbo is heading towards 100,000km's and is still going strong for now.

Stephen I thought I read somewhere that in Japan with the m35s changing turbo,s at 100,000ks is like changing cambelts in the RS4, its done as a precaution, can anybody comment. Also who is the best person in Qld to go to if the turbo does shit itself as I live out in the sticks, again info from anyone.

My suggestion would be to organise a replacement before it fails. It can be done yourself, with the assistance of those of us that have already done it, but I would suggest a hoist, even if you have to hire a workshop for a day.

Best to do it on your terms as Murphys law states it will fail when you need the car most.

Gerry, you could be correct, most of the M35's getting around however have fairly low km's (under 60,000k's) so if you have over 100,000km's maybe it has been replaced.

If you get someone to translate your japanese log book let us know if that was the case (replacement at 100,000).

Good luck

The chances the turbo has been replaced, except maybe under warranty are pretty slim. Mechanics charge more in Japan, and remember, what is a $4k job for us, is more than the car is worth in Japan.

Still, you may get lucky. Is the turbo noisy at all?

No scott the turbo is doing everything right but as the car has done 115,000ks its always in the back of your mind, but the previous owner appears to have kept the car fully serviced so lets hope it,ll last for a good while yet, hope I haven,t jinked myself.

      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.
