Hey Everyone,

Well i decided to attempt to install a biltz FATT into my 32 gtr to save a bit of cash, Anyway ive hooked the the 4 wires up 1 for constant 12v and 1 for accesories, and aslo 1 for the "ON" and the earth wire also all to there right colours of course ect, i know there is 3 other wires that go to the speed sensor on the ECU, and handbrake wire and one for automatics which i didnt hook up any of those 3 , but ive been told i dont need to hook them up as i just want a countdown mode only, well here the problems lies well when i go to switch the car off the engine stops and the the turbo timer turns off also which is what i dont want it to do so its got me, could it be how i have wired it or the turbo timer is faulty?

But any help would be greatly appreicated

Thanks

hey mate i had exactly the same problem with my r32 i ended up getting it working when i got my alarm installed i just tapped those wires i didnt end up using all three thought so my doesnt turn on at accories just as on (ignition 2).

but it works fine thought and also i would sugest putting the hand break sensor in for security reasons.

Good stuff - Just out of interest where did you find your handbrake wire? r32 and a31 looms are very similiar.

I'm yet to install my TT but yeah it's an old school one.

i took out the middle console its piss easy and there is one wire i think it was yellow or orange or something like that tapped it and away you go!

Where does the wire lead into? The base/leverage point of the handbrake?

Sounds good. Cheers mate.

just goes along the side of the hand break to the back of it and then under the rubber boot thingy there's only one wires neways

      WTB noltec r32 front upper (camber) arms

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm firmly on the "zero compliance is good compliance" for FUCAs. I'd be looking to solid metal joints even if the primary reason for having them is because they facilitate the twist in the arm. I have never been more happy with the way the front suspension behaves than I have since I got rid of the FUCA bushes. Even the thin little (short lived) poly bushes in the Whiteline adjustables have too much compliance for my liking. It probably won't be long before I have sphericals nearly everywhere, probably including both top and bottom arms in the rear, and I'll start complaining about the increased costs for dental work. But I will be enjoying the driving more, I'm sure.

      I have offset Nismo brackets so the fact the gktechs can pivot is less important to me. I have 170mm JIC arms with bushings - but they provide no adjustment and I'm not sure whiteline eccentric bushings will fit them (I don't want to ruin the bushings currently in them to find out). Ideally I want something with bushings + adjustment; hence why I'd like to find a pair of these. Unfortunately they aren't easy to find.

      @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal!
