Hey everyone. I've got my dyne tune this week and just wondering what people have used to cover the hole on the gear box when the front shaft is removed. Also what one of the fuses do I pull out? Thanks.

Ps. I couldnt find the answer on google.

I have driven a few hundred km with the front drive shaft out. On the S1 you go to the fusebox in the engine bay and there is a square green fuse for the awd - pull that out - your awd warning light should come on - that's as it should be.

Bloody he'll....should not happen....that is a thick oil IMO and should be fine. Any oil on the rear window of the car???.....if not have a look under the car for leaks.

I'm lucky if I loose 50mls in the VQ in 10000kms....even our race RB,s don't use that much.

P.s came in here to wish you luck on your dyno run.

ive had the car for 100000kms i service the car every 5000kms and every service i measure the oil and i always have lost 500ml every time. I use motul 5w40 but my car does not stop all day so mayby its understandable. My garage floor is pollished concrete so i know there is no leeks.

funny my 78 skyline c210 did the same 500ml every time weird i thought it was a skyline thing

mates c34 just got 230kwatw on e85 and the auto is shitting its self and he fills up every day.

keep us up to date with the resaults i want to get mine done soon.

I think it's done it the whole time I've had it :/. Oh well. I had this fear that the day before the dyno it would blow up or something and sure enough as of yesterday there is a horrible noise, sounds like really bad knock at about 4000 rpm. Another strange thing the hyper gear high pressure actuator holds a steady 14psi well up until the noise starts and I stop accelerating.

I'm curious why there is imperial sized nuts on a Japanese car. So f**king pissed off right now, I have a rounded nut now because I was using a 12mm spanner. Oh yay $165 for the tuner to remove the drive shaft. Just what I needed

Probably knocking its head off. 14PSI on a highflow with no tune is a receipe for disaster.

Yer, I actually forgot i was like WTF then oh yeah it's at yatala. If I can get 250kw il be happy that should be enough towing power.

Be interesting to see what it pulls. I use the same tuner. Shaun will leave it nice and rich and safe for daily driving.

I only get 258rwkw on 16psi with a gt3076R .82 IW

    • Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.
    • So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
    • Ooo I might actually come and bring the kids, however will leave the shit box home and take the daily
    • Thanks. Yeah I realised that there's no way I'd be able to cover the holes with the filler, it would just fall through. Thanks again @GTSBoy!
    • That was the reason I asked. If you were going to be fully bodge spec, then that type of filler is the extreme bodge way to fill a large gap. But seeing as you're going to use glass sheet, I would only use that fibre reinforced filler if there are places that need a "bit more" after you've finished laying in the sheet. Which, ideally, you wouldn't. You might use a blob of it underneath the sheet, if you need to provide some support from under to keep the level of your sheet repair up as high as it needs to be, to minimise the amount of filler you need on top. Even though you're going bodge spec here, using glass instead of metal, the same rules apply wrt not having half inch deep filler on the top of the repair. Thick filler always ends up shitting the bed earlier than thin filler.
