Where is it located?

Can it be callibrated?

Mine seems to be about 4-5 degrees over all the time but it also gets some serious heatsoak from somewhere.

If the cars has been parked in the sun or even left in the garage after running then the outside temp reading can go into the 30's on a 10 degree day in Canberra! :flamed:

mine is actually on the front where the air con fan is. on the top side of that there is a black thing with wires coming to the middle under the latch that you can un plug. don't know if you can change it but you could move it from there.

So sorry to bring up an old thread but...

Ran an air conditioning diagnostic test and it comes up with a flashing 21. This means that the outside air temperature sensor is faulty or missing.

My ambient temperature is displayed as -30c.

I searched and searched on here but did not find a picture of said sensor. Many people have said it is located behind the front bar.

I found a plug with nothing connected to it, so one would assume this is the plug for this sensor. The sensor isn't there at all as far as I can see. It is a two pin plug, wire colours are light blue/white stripe and light green.

Does anyone know if this is the plug for the OAT sensor?

Thanks so much for your help. The plug that I found was in the location that the picture shows. The plug in the picture looks very similar to the one in my car also. The sensor is nowhere to be found, so I assume someone took it out in the past sometime.

I'll ring Nissan tomorrow to see if I can get a replacement sensor.

      Rb26/30 build

      By lilley's gtr · Posted

      I've been building a 26/30 for a few years now. I've had the head built with all the good stuff. I had a 32 gtr but blew it up and yes its all going into a vl but im looking for some advice from some RB nuts on pros and cons on putting a 26 head on a 30 bottom end is it worth it Works are as follows Head -Extensive porting 1mm oversized supertech valves Supertech double springs Supertech valve guides Supertech titanium retainers Tomei solid lifters Tomei 270 x 10.25 cams Head drain Bottom end series 2 rb30 block Cp ceramic coated pistons Eagle rods Romac balancer Oil restrictions  O ringed blah blah spent a fortune And will get a girdle because the 30s arent used to handling that much rpm Nitto billet oil pump Hypertune plenum 6boost mani Refurbed astra pump thats the cover for it in the boot I did have a precision 6262 but sold it because drag car life. Currently building the ass end full 4 link floater rear end with a 2 speed  But the dilemma i have is my mate rekens I should just stick with the 30 head for reliability. Has any one had any issues with mounting the 26 head ie compression blowing gaskets etc. Just looking for some advice from people who have gone down this route. Here's some photos. Blew the oil pump in the gtr and decided to rip the motor out at the time and do a full build only to find it had been a repairable write off so went down this path.

      lol no cats running str pipes … might put the high flow back on but I suspect it might effect my ignition timing a bit.

      That looks a bit like yellowing to me. If the rear bar was looking like that from rich idle, I'd ask the question, do you have a catalytic converter fitted, and fully working?

      Oh yeah gets really bad down here. I’ll have to upgrade the heater and wind screen wipers as well for optimal performance.
