Well I recently did an rb25 swap in my r32.

1 week ago I noticed during a rainy day that i could not stop my wiper blades from moving. They would move automatically in at the INT speed even though I had put it to OFF.

The wiper blade problem went away the next day but came back again.

Now today, I parked the car with the windows about 2 inches down. When I came back and started the car, I could not move my windows back up.

The RPM tach also stopped working. And when you turn your key to the ON position, usually all the engine check lights go on, but mine dont come on anymore.

What could it be? A retarded fuse or something!?

or

Could it be a wiring problem? But i dont see why the shop i go to would need to play with that wiring

for it to be a fuse, your fuse box will have had to melt or something to short between fuses so a quick check will show you if this is the cause (i have seen it happen to a vl commo) but i doubt it.

I'd guess wiring short somewhere, but i don't really know much about where the wiring is run in skylines to be able to tell you which area to look in. If its recent the workshop you got the conversion done in should be able to fix it free, if its something that they've done.

EDIT: Sorry just reread, fuse could possibly be cause of power window probs.

    • My purchase experience was no where near as glorious as yours but still a significant moment in my life! Yeah that's a bit of a dilemma as to whether you bring it back or not!  Obviously a massive waste of time and effort to bring it back if you're only going to move there anyway!
    • To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear   
    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.
