its a little tiny thing hardly worth taking to mechanic to do - C-red have looked at it and said it needed replacing - my car apparently was doing a little song and dance splutter when they were pulling it into the workshop to have the suspension done - its only in low rev range it really plays up which means peak hour traffic to work n back is not very fun!

i am a tool haha do you know how long it took me to find the right size spanner to get the bloody nuts off the battery!! my dads shed is utter chaos cant find anything!

Instructions do help a blondie like me tho!!!!

yeah that means the spring tension ain't tight enough to hold the pressure in at low revs! and your symptoms sound right! you reckon the car is being very sluggish meaning the pressure is always being released because your spring tension isn't tight enough to hold pressure at all! lets just hope your BOV is adjustable! otherwise gonna have to buy another one!- i'll be on the look out for a re-circulative valve for ya niz!

adrian :P

yes sell them cost me $200 - so not a huge enough amount to push plus they didnt tell me til 4pm that arvo i needed it done so if they told me earlier i wouldve told them to go ahead and do it while the car was there.

i prefer to go shopping for these things myself anyway - cant afford anything for myself cos of the car so i might as make the most out of car retail therapy.

Thanks for the advice on what to go for Adrian - taken note of it.

yeah i like it to be stuffed before replacing too but then again i like to replace before it starts really affecting the driving of the car - and after 2 months - this is driving me insane - you sit at the lights and watch the revs surge up and down and think - is it going to stall nope going back up nope shuddering and going back down - werd!

yep thats exactly what happened to me with my mates r33 all he did was adjust the spring tension and it was back to normal! but again i will re-iterate MAKE SURE YOU DON"T ADJUST IT TOO TIGHT hehee otherwise you will get compressor surge! you will get that wikked chu chu chu noise but that is actually the noise of the excess air hitting the compressore blades! NOT GOOD!

adrian :P

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
    • Twas your car many moons ago that gave me the idea!
