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.

    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech! 
    • You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
