Yeah I wasn't too great :D

Blue & roots festival was a bit of a dud... didnt seem to be much happening?? There was nothing outside, must have been all going on inside somewhere. Didn't bother trying to find out.

We relaxed in the beer garden for a while ($5 breaky with eggs & bacon and everything, bargain!) and then went and laid on the beach... weren't up to doing much more haha

Ha ha ha, when you rang me at like 1:30 I was like "She's not going to be well in the morning!"

My mate ended up the same way as you guys did by the sounds of it... We packed it in around 3:30AM... He had to get up at 7AM to leave mine at 8AM to be at work at 10AM... I get a message at 9:58 stating "I feel like I'm going to spew" LOL

Hey i live in wollongong and cant wrap my head around why ive never seen an r34 here besides tafe, and that is non turbo. i see r33s every day with smoke pouring out the back of them and what not

my question is, is it bad taste or lack of money or is it the r34 its self?? im interested in a r34 gt-t and was wondering if they arent the best choice in any way??

Dont know where you have been hiding but there is at least 4 r34 gt-t', 1 R34 GTR and 3 r35 GTR's hanging around here :S

My 1988 car was still ripping skids even with 450 000KM on the clock. No noises, nothing, used to sit on the brake pretty good too in comps.

Only issue it actually had was the 22 year old muffler had died.

They're as unreliable as Jap cars funnily enough.

      Question about R34 GTT A/T Solenoids

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      So.... when I'm finally getting around to having my power steering leak sorted, now it looks like I've got the same issue most A/T Skylines are having. My A/T light will randomly come on and I'm stuck in 3rd gear until I turn the car off and on again. Only 3 weeks ago I did a complete transmission service: Oil flush + new gasket + new filter. This came out of nowhere!! It wasn't like the car was driven hard. I drove about 3 mins down the road to get fuel and boom!!!  Anyway, I have a few questions and hope you fine people can help me out here. All questions are in red. 1. The solenoids: I was looking at the parts catalogue in Amayama and I could only find the Solenoids as an assembly. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/319404ax05 I read in another thread that Solenoid A = 31940-4AX02 & Solenoid B = 31940-4AX05 but the Amayama product has only the code of B. Is this the right part? Can anyone who has done the Solenoid changes or seen them confirm if this is the complete set of A & B?   2. Gasket and Filter: I'm not going to try change the solenoids myself because it seems difficult to do in a home garage with just 2 jack stands. I plan to take it to a shop and get it changed. I was also going to buy the transmission sump gasket at the same time so I don't reuse the same gasket. Should I just use the existing gasket as it has only been on the car since OCT 19th? (~3 weeks) Should I be buying a brand-new gasket and a filter? Does this job involve taking the filter out?   Thanks in advance to everyone. It's hard to find a video of someone doing a solenoid change on a R34 so any help you can give answering my remaining questions would make me less stressed.

      R34 GTT RB rough idle problem with weird RPM gauge fluctuations

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Yea - From what I have seen from the video, the car idles like any R34 lol 50PSI of fuel pressure is hardly super abnormal, the regulator is working because the pressure remains static when the throttle gets revved, i.e pressure remains the same when manifold vaccuum changes. Bigger pumps on stock rails always bumped the pressure in the rail without using an aftermarket regulator to change that. Do you know what your IAC is actually doing? Has there been any data showing the stepper motor % etc? There's no way your idle is actually moving around the way the cluster(s) are indicating. You would hear the difference with the engine RPM flying to 3k and 1k in mere seconds. I'd be checking the wiring to the tacho. What the tacho is telling you and what the engine/ecu is telling you are different things. I assume your ECU doesn't display the spike. So whatever is telling the tacho to be at X rpm is doing something weird. When the going gets insane, you're on the wrong path. You've ruled out plenty of things that are working correctly/aren't the issue. Your idle isn't doing what the tacho is indicating. You have two seperate issues, I don't think they are linked, and the idle seems reasonably okay unless it's stalling which.. well, it hasn't. Troubleshoot the stall if it occurs by figuring out what your IAC is doing vs what it is being told to do.

      If it has had a code in the recent past, the code should still be there waiting to be read.
