gtr's been in at the tuners for 2 weeks and I think they are stumped... they showed me some data logging and at WOT the line zig zags up and down about 300rpm and constantly adjusting timing like its getting a dodgy signal but can't any... one theory is noise from unshielded wire ( not keen on that one as all I've done is change turbos and wire up stereo, which they don't think could be related ) they're at the stage now where they're about to pull the whole wiring harness out to check all the wiring??

theory 2 maybe corrupted software on the motec... so their fix is to maybe wipe software and reinstall ,, then have to start from scratch with whole tune ???

is there anybody who has had anything similar to this with a Motec M800??.. I realise this is probably a bit vague but thats about as much as I understand :)

we're waiting to hear back from Motec at this point, but any help would be great.

yes, 24 slot trigger disc mounted in the factory cas fixes it. The motec looses the signal when the 360 slot nissan one becomes a blur at high rpm. We had our own custom made and works a treat even at 11500rpm.

thanks for help guys, some of the symptoms on the motec site are the same and everyone seems to be pointing at the factory CAS not being up to the task...

Hi Jonn, its the same one you go to....I'm not on here to bag anyone, just thought I'd put it to the collective knowledge on here and it looks like they might have nailed it.... we'll see what the boys at the shop reckon about this tomorrow.

want to get the car the sorted, track days and night coming up soon, see you up there ?

Excellent. I was wondering which workshop as I know of another car in Perth with an M800 and they might have had some answers for you. Good to hear it's all sorted.

I'm not sure on more track days with my current car as it's up for sale but if no one comes up with the cash then I might sling some 1000cc injectors in it and retune. If I do that then I want to take it back to the track and have a blast.

Did I hear that your other car got pinched??

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
