I've developed a bit of a problem with my R34 lately.

Every know and then either as I'm driving or when I start the car up the following happens:

  • Tachometer, speedometer and engine temperature gauge stop working
  • Check engine light comes on
  • TCS OFF and Slip light comes on
  • HICAS Light comes on
  • Central locking stop working
  • Cigarette lighter dies

Then eventually they will all start working again. Car runs fine the entire time.

Any suggestions on problem/cause/solution or if anyone has experienced this before?

Cheers!

woah ok, what a problem!

But considering the car runs fine or like normal the entire time I'd have to suggest faulty tacho metre.

Theres not really much else I can think of to replace here...

Anywho I mentioned the piggy back ecu because I had some issues with hicas lights and traction control lights with my piggy back.

perhaps get your hands on a cluster and plug it in see what happens.

Good luck.

I've actually just found this in another thread, the guy said some screws came loose on the back of his cluster, might be worth taking yours out and checking the screws?

heres the link its the 10th post down.

    • So, I'm not a diff swapsies specialist, but I am pretty sure the 300zx ran an R220 not and R200 like the C34 Stagea, so I think it is of no use to you. As you said, all you need to do is get the centre swapped in the diff you have, which might be best done by a diff specialist. The current centre is probably desirable to someone to track so an easy path might be to swap your mechanical centre for someone with a standard centre (which is a viscous LSD, and almost certainly won't have any limited left). The only thing you have to watch swapping R200 internals between diffs is that the number of splines on your car's stub axles has to match the donor car, or you need the centre+stub axles and make sure they have the same number and pattern of bolt holes as your rear axles.  You swap your current ratio onto the new centre so you don't have to worry about matching the front. Alternatively, centres like the Nismo pro are much gentler (and have adjustable "tightness") so you could buy on of those from somewhere like Jesse Streeter or Nengun (noting it may cost you 1234% extra in tariffs by the time it lands)
    • Id just remove the solid subframe bushes.  you are over complicating things.  on a side note make sure you do some research on the skyline shed before buying from them. 
    • Just got back from overseas and once again Rego and service time. Supercheap auto cant find my plates on their list to match my car to buy a crush washer lolol. NRMA has my number plate linked to R35 GTR which i have explained once again that it is not a GTR. Its scary in the sense that if somthing happens and my insurance wont cover me if its the wrong car on their list even though they are the ones that have made the mistake. Im not sure NIGHTCRAWLER why the neg comment? Its a 2020 V37 400R Skyline? and asking for someone to post their VIN number is crazy just to prove it? Its a legit Nissan Skyline from japan factory 400R its does use the Q50 infinity chasis but this is the Japan model. 
    • no, you aren't, but good to see you pop by
    • I can also smell fuel in oil if that helps.
