My one is playing up intermittently according to the MFD.

The DSBC display is OK though.

So, I'm in the market for a BNR34 Boost Sensor - which I think is located near the firewall on the driver's side.

Anyone wrecking?

Cheers,

Try resoldering the pins where it plugs in on the sensor.

Should fix your problem

Hey mate,

I've had to do this to 3 of my R34's, also had to do it to my GTR.

Happy to do it for you free of charge if you're in the area. PM me if you need help and we'll tee up a time.

Cheers.

Oh I thought it might just be mine. I'm having the same problem. I recently bought a new MFD because my old one had a line down the LCD display. Once it was installed the boost gauge on it invariably worked. It ALWAYS worked when the old one was hooked up, now sometimes it works and shows boost normally and the rest of the time the boost gauge just has nothing on it at all??? Is thais what's happening with you too Terry?

Yes Mike; exactly the same symptoms on the MFD.

Yet the Boost Controller Display works perfectly all the time.

So I'm expecting that the soldering of a couple of pins on the Sensor near the firewall on the driver's side will restore the bar graph to perfection.

Hello,

Im no expert but if the gauge is not even showing on the GTR MFD, it could possibly be because the boost sensor itself is not being recognised.

Maybe check your sensor is not unplugged or if the plugs going to it are not stuffed, you could also check the sensor itself has no other dry joints inside it (apart from the common 3).

Grain of salt, but its a starting point.

Cheers.

    • Only thing I'd add...is on recommendation from a good diff shop, I've used mineral oil in my diff including the race car for years. The synthetics can be too slippery and glaze the gears
    • 75W90 GL5 is fine. If you aren't sure about the type get one with LSD additive. 
    • Because you're effectively rushing the shift and forcing it to go in - with greater leverage against parts that don't _want_ to go together. Short shift = forcing the gear in harder. Also Redline Heavy Shockproof actively says not to use it in anything with Synchros. Well, it says "not recommended" which is basically as far as anyone will ever say in a product statement to "Do not use" Generally the Redline makes the gearbox feel great... until it fails faster. https://www.redlineoil.com/heavy-shockproof
    • 99.9% of them are viscous diffs. The 0.01% are helicals. They were only option-able in the series 2, as well. I have redline heavy shockproof in my helical. It seems... fine? I don't think anyone is ever going to know until something really breaks and at that point I'm not sure anyone will blame the oil. I just chose it because it's extremely heavy duty and my car will see not-road-legal duty for it. I've also had sadness with various diff oils in the past sweating out everywhere and/or other 'fun' things, with clutch diffs. Given you have a 1.5 way on the shelf, I'd not even bother with the diff in the car and just get to tinkering with it. I would spend the $90 on oil toward the labor of someone else putting the diff in if time poor even lol.
    • I believe mine is helical and not clutch type. During drifting one wheel was spining as if it was open diff so bought kazz 1.5 way and has sat on my shelf for the past 5 years as I want to learn shiming process and do it myself   in meantime thought I change the diff oil hence post here. So any 75-90?   i am pretty sure r34 are helical not clutch lsd as standard . That is gtt ones
