My R32 GTS4 coupe has just broken a wire cable in the driver's door electric window assembly. It still has power etc and when you look down into it you can see the wire drum revolving with the broken end of wire rotating around it. I've pulled the interior trim off the door but the area where the wire is is inside the structural part. This wire is what drives the window go up and down.

How do you fix this sort of thing? Or where I can find a replacement part? :rofl:

I recently fixed an R31 mechanism with 225lb steel trace from the fishing shop and it works sweet.......BUT

the job was a major pain and I only did it cos I couldn't get a new mechanism. (The 31 one is very similar to the 32 but different enough not to fit. I would have happily paid $150 for a new mechanism instead of repairing it.

My advice comes with a hidden agenda though... I've got the one you need 4 sale!

pm me if interested, but check to see if you can get a cheap one locally

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
