You must have an auto right?

1. The power means it will change it down a gear for more torque, makes the car have a more aggressive feel and more torque. Also, it changes gears later in the rpm range.

The snow starts in 2nd gear for less torque, and keeps it in a lower rpm range, so it has less chance of wheel spin. Good for driving in muddy situations or snow.

So, you should have more torque in power mode and much less torque in snow mode.

2. As for the spoiler up and down button...to me it sounds pretty simple, but I have no knowledge of this in Skylines. If the button doesn't work maybe the motor for it is broken or your car has an aftermarket spoiler, which made the button obsolete. Who knows. :D

Please correct me if I am wrong people.

Hope this helped Justin.

Cheers.

^^^ correct.. The spoiler up/down button is for a front spoiler you may have had and its been removed.. look under the front, or get a mate to press the button while you look under your front bar.. if your front bar is aftermarket then it has definately been removed..don't worry about it..

I have this button and a standard front bar but no spoiler, dont suppose you have any pics of it, i have not been able to find a single bit of info on the spoiler.

    • Excuse me, but 2) does apply 1) Would also apply if you consider how much is spent in the alternatives. Also there's the option of 3), buy one pre-built that you can put your family in (it's me, it's my car)   That said, I went on a ~500km drive the other day. I didn't use anything more adventurous than 3rd/4th gear at about ~3000RPM and 50% throttle and I was going as fast as anyone has any sense doing on a public road, with enough grip to the point where I didn't want to go any faster. I was obviously under the limit of the current car etc etc. MX5 with 2.5 N/A to achieve the same speed would be more fun for any road scenario. Maybe consider cams. I wouldn't boost it. The use case is just not there and it won't actually make the car more enjoyable unless you really do plan on wringing gears from 1st to 3rd (at least) at 100% WOT on a public road to 150+kmh.
    • Great if: 1. You had all of the money for everything else that is required  2. Lived in a country where you could actually do this and drive it legally on the road Sadly, neither applies to me As for the turbo, I am having second thoughts, mainly for engineering/registration legality reasons and insurance  Not saying I've finished doing stupid things that I probably should do to the MX5, but boost, and V8 engine swaps isn't on the cards Strange, but true 
    • I like this page, better than that silly turbo kit   https://v8roadsters.com/product-category/engine-conversions/engine-conversion-lsx/engine-conversion-lsx-nc/  
    • That would be my Shoei helmet
    • Yes shipping here can be a pain, was about to purchase timing belt replacement kit, but it tends to get expensive due to shipping (and customs if importing from non-EU which the UK now falls under).
