Hey guys, Went to start up the gt-r on sunday morning to find the batery was completly dead after just being replaced last month.

I have connect up the meter and a light bulb and yes, there is a constant current being drawn from the BAT 10 amp Fuse, this is highlighted in WHITE on the fude cover lid. But i cant read jap so i dont know whats draining my power. The light bulb does not shine at a consistand brightness but, dimming in and out if this means anything.

taking the fuse in and out everytime i drive the thing is begining to become a burdon. It's an R33 model 1995.

Hope you guys can help me or throw some sudgestions to find were this power is being sucked from.

Cheers.

Are you referring to the japanese writing on the fuse box cover inside the dash?

This fuse layout is that I know from R33 GTS-t, but I think it applies to all general R33 including GTR. Hope it can solve your problem.

Car will not start. and the the battery go's flat is whats happening

interior lights still work, alarm and everything is running. and no its not the alarm!

Thanks for that translation mate and acording to that it's the Electrics Fuse.

odviously then its somthing to do with the elecrics of the car... so this eliminates anything else with a fuse and whats left?

And after inspecting the rear strut tower brace, the nut has been cross threaded and used before... so previous owner has odviously had battery out before afew times as well.

maybe i should give supercheap's head office a call and hassle bob, see if he knew what the problem was.

    • Yeah saw that video on YouTube. But he got a R grade (repaired) high mileage model and proudly advertised the fact it was super cheap and no doubt with issues. I wouldn't be going the cheap and nasty route.
    • I don't really know general street pads too well, but there is no reason you can't get a low dust, long wearing, no squeal pad that works for those calipers at a reasonable price....they would just be a low end to medium price daily style pad.  If new pads don't have much bite or they loose it over time, it is probably just the pad glazing up which you can fix by giving them a good thrashing every now and then (or get the mechanic to deglaze them at next service) Track or semi track pads are where you have to put up with excessive dust (and potentially squealing as a side effect of that) in return for good bite and performance when very hot. Street pads have nothing like that sort of punishment, even long downhills with the brakes on are easier than a track session
    • lol yeah I'll check that, reminds me of the LDV thread!  I don't think that is the problem here, the starter doesn't even solenoid click. I did do a super quick test by removing the starter motor's power cable from the engine bay fuse box and the battery voltage was still 10v, so something super fishy is going on. BTW here is a R33 fuse box table I threw together from a few sources....use at own risk! R33 Fuse Box and Sources.xlsx
    • Johnny's approach, throw all the Nissan electronics into the trash. Best thing I've done to my shit box, go DBW.
    • Sounds like the JAX guys must have installed some really awful pads, are they BenShit/BenDicks pads by any chance?
