Hi all,

Dont know if anyone else has experienced this but I get a pretty bad vibration off the line under full acceleration, does not go away when 2nd comes in. This does not happen all the time. I noticed it was workse when someone is sitting in the back. Does the Stagea had a rear LSD?

Next one. Sometime when turning the wheels with at a standstill or going forward very slowly whilst turning I get a vibration. Just wondering if these two problems are interlinked????

Thanks in advance.

Ken

Hi Ken, I get the vibration when reversing slowly at full lock. I have checked the CV's and they are good. I will be changing the radius rod bushes shortly for more caster. They appear to be a bit worn (soft) so they maybe the problem. I also get a bad (harsh) vibration at 160 kph, I will get the wheel balance checked, but it feels more tailshafty. I don't have any vibration in first or second. :rofl:

I get same vibration forward or reverse, but not at full lock, and not every time. I had a similar vibration (acceleration) on my gtr race car, it was a centre bearing drama. The tail shaft should not affect my turning vibration should it? I was thinking lsd clutch plate prob, maybe transfer prob - I really dont know. Out of ideas. Let me know how you go though.

Cheers,

Ken

I too have a slight vibration when turning slowly. But i thought it was normal as when I push the snow button I got the vibration still but a little worse so I thought it must be the ALTESSA system thinking that one wheel was turning faster, whcih it does when turning. I think it is normal, but I will stand corrected.

Cheers ICE

I was getting vibration coming out of my Cam gear cover for a few days, but then it went away. i was worried my belt was about to snap

I'm getting my timing belt replaced tomorrow anyways, so hopefully that will solve that mystery.

Vibration under hard (not very hard) braking, no real suprise there but, anything that small trying to stop 1800kg of wagon is going to wanna argue. Rear brake pads worn out in 12 months, so I've machined rotors, put a set of R31 rear pads in at a 3rd of the price for the genuine ones and seems to be gone for now.

Yeah i get that bad vibration under braking too. figure i'll upgrade the brakes to a decent set of brembo's in the near future.

I'm not sure if it's just the ABS stuffing up or that the stock brakes are just crap

I changed the front shocks on the weekend and I noticed, when I have one front wheel off the ground, I can't rotate it. It is pretty tight as I can undo the wheel nuts (tyre service 120 ft lbs to undo them). If I leave it for a while, a few hours, I can then turn it. I assume this is the ATTESSA residual hydraulic pressure, this happen in the GTR's. Since I have the Stagea in Park, the tranmission is locked so the one wheel can't rotate independantly.

Keeping this in mind, the vibration when reversing is an indicator that the Stagea may have some form of LSD in the front. Anyone seen that mentioned in the specs? :P

I have a gtr cut coming in my next container. SK, do you know if the Staj/GTR tailshaft is the same length?? Another things that happens is if I give it a stab and then back off quickly the diff seems to lock and unlock rapidly -anyone else?

My understanding is that the front half of the tailshaft is the same, but the rear is longer:cheers:

    • @DraftySquash @Duncan he's not talking about the part that sits against the radiator support, he’s talking about the lip that sits towards the front outside of the car. anyway I had a look at other cooling panels and came across this one https://justjap.com/products/carbing-radiator-cooling-panel-plate-nissan-skyline-r34-gt-t?variant=37829684134087&currency=AUD&utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=Advanced feed&utm_content=Carbing Radiator Cooling Panel Plate fits Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T (Coupe)&srsltid=AfmBOoonzPDKqe9NgKi5U0AkFc2XvbXETGmNWvfNcyBT5DUZagMYHg9DZ70 if you take notice it’s the same shape.  well thankfully the justjap listing has a description and it says : - Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T Coupe (M/T -07/2000) this means it’s specifically for a s2. S2’s have different front bars to s1 so that lip with the 3 holes are *probably* mounting points for the s2 bar. im not 100% sure but im almost certain it will still fit a s1 bar       
    • Everyone is too used to learning from places like HPA "how to tune" and what to expect at what point, rather than being able to see "The computer says I'm in cell with Row = 8, column =4, and I can see my fuel is lean, so lets add more" Everyone wants "real units", which helps for someone picking it up for the first time and seeing how bad the tune is if they're not used to touching it.   However, I think for most of us who want to play with it, you're 100% right, we're only needing to learn about it for OUR CAR. Which makes it great, and we don't need to care what the real values are, we just need to know which cell it is, that's causing the lean or rich point, or that we want more ignition timing or less. But again, everyone wants everything super you beaut and nearly self tuning, with VE maps, and a billion compensations...   Though then there's me over here when I'm doing reverse engineering work just reading data in hex format that most people couldn't work anything out from. Yet I can see what's going on.
