howdy all,

Looking at getting some aftermarket cruise control for my R33. Saw a few old posts on here, so figured i would try and get some fresh info.

Anyone recommend any after market cruise control systems. not fussed as to whether its stalk type or button pad type. Just want something that works ALL the time, not when it feels like it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers everyone

hope this is the right thread for this topic too!!!! :down:

I was going to put one on as well. Asked and had a lot of people get back to me with good info. I haven't done it yet - one battle at a time and I'm fighting/modding elsewhere atm...lol.

On ebay they have the ap60 etc, they are supposed to be OK [i was told the stalk one was crappy]. I emailed the guy that was selling them and had a good reply, had some recommendations sent to me on what to get, I'll get them and post them up for you.

yeah i am keen to get one for my car as well (in no rush though). i have had 2 cars with aftermarket systems fitted (by previous owners). one was good the other not so good. the second one was very jerky when it was activated. there would be a sudden surge when it activated then it would settle down. other than that it was fine. both systems were stalk type ones.

install was relitively simple.

"please install a cruise control on my wierd volvo looking skyline wagon"

"sure"

....wait 3 hours....

"wow your ECU had some unusual connections. but its done now"

"thanks"

sorry can't remember price it as years. couple of hundred which is money well spent for convenience and my license.

So I it right to assume the nissan ECU is probably "cruise control ready" ie. plug in cruise control control box inline with the ECU?

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By silviaz · Posted

      Is rebuilding it even a thing? Where would the shop find parts for it? I looked at some off these local online stores for my r34 and suprisingly they had brand new aftetmarket ones for $600-800 I think. I guess r32 might be a bit tougher.

      Does 98ron contain ethanol?

      I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to move wrt the other.

      I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.

      Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.
