Does bad luck come in threes?!?!?!

2 moths ago my 33 was broken in too. They had two cracks at it. Pulled back a wire fence to get at it and first time set of the alarm. Second time they just smashed the passenger window. Its quite funny... for what they would make at the pawn shop ($150 odd buck for the head unit) it is costing me out of pocket $500 odd and insurance about $2250.

Two days ago my mates old man backed in to my front spoiler and I bolted down thinking my car was again being broken in to. And then yesterday my car was keyed all the way up the drivers side. Just hoping the cut and polish on my first claim will get it out.

So I am a little curious on where to position and how to fit one of these ten dollar house alarms in the cabin. I had one go off in a foyer once and they bloodly well hurt your ears!!!!

If these bastards want something in your car they will get in, alarm or not. Your only safety is to park your in what you think are safe places- try to use parking lots, it costs a few extra bucks but at least there are less dickheads are walking up and down past your car like they would be if you are on a road. Dont think just because its daytime they wont break into your car, durin the day on a main road these scumbags jacked my headunit! My tint is only slightly off limo full black tint too so its not like they could see right in either. Obiviously keep your car garaged as often as possible and if you need to park keep it on main roads. With the way these ****heads are getting into cars at the moment - if they dont manage to get in thru the door they will just smash your window. Trust me them smashing the window is definately the cheaper option repair wise. Unfortunately owning a nice car comes at a cost, as i'm sure many of us already know!

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
