WTF is up with Chapps Tonight????


Recommended Posts

........So Im on the way home from the gym, like a few hours ago, and since my gym is just around the corner from Chapel street, I thought Id pimp a bit on Chaps by showing off my new rims. As Im driving down Chaps I notice 2 cop bikes and a cop car behind me and 2 cop bikes behind me, so my first reaction is turn down the stereo cos I dont wanna get busted for that out of all things, then as Im heading towards Toorak road, I notice that outside Studio Cafe the bike rack has cop bikes lined up everywhere, and on the other side of the road, this pig is doing a hardcore inspection on what looked like a stock as R32, and other cars are being inspected as well....So I was like WTF?????? And just as Im about to hit Toorak road a cop pulls up next to me and starts looking at my car, but fortunately he drove on. WTF IS UP WITH THIS SH*T?????

Lets face it, Chaps is all bout the car culture and at this rate its gonna go bye bye

chapel street and the car culture!??? you mean the losers that have nothing better to do with themselves on a friday and saturday night so they drive up and down showing off their small penis'. Seriously people that would prefer to drive up and down a street all night in heavier then peak hour traffic instead of going for a drive somewhere where they can drive their cars how they are supposed to be driven are total wanks!

thats my 2 cents, not directed at anyone, just voicing my opinion!

Okay, for starters when I do a Chapel street run, I go down it once, no laps or that stuff. I agree the wankstas who go back and forth are stoopid, but hey, lets face it, you get the bad with the good. I dunno about you guys, but I have seen some pretty cool looking cars on Chaps, and thousands of riced out pos's. Even tho a large percentage of the people who congregate on Chaps are dickheads, they do have cars, and there are many cars that drive down that street, so whether you like it or not, its a part of the Melbourne car culture, maybe not the best example, but still a part never the less.

Again, wheres a GOOD place to experience Melbourne car culture?

I enjoy going down chapel street a few years back but lately its been crap!.. hoons are reving their engine out which goes about 5 metres then stops due to the heavy traffic, blasting their radio while damaging their own eardrums just to get attention? whats with these guys? gee's... are they really that bored? from all these bad experiences I hate chapel more and more...

okies then....

Where is ther GOOD car culture happening in Melbourne?[/qoute]

You are talking with all of us right now :P

it's kinda silly really, but I guess people know if they wanna get somewhere quick, don't take chaps...and back streets around there are pretty well set up to avoid chaps all together, which again runs into doxx's problems.

But the one time I do like doin a quick lap is mid sunday afternoons on a nice day when you get the chance to see the 355, 360 or Diablo outside Cafe Sienna...

i was in chapps last night and i was in a proton dumped with 17" wheels, cops where EVERYWHERE you cant even through a but out the window and youed get busted.

But i did see a white R33 skyline whith a chik driving it had GTST badges but they didnt look like standard badges just wondering where there from.

    • Waaay ahead of ya....(evil laugh!!) Will show the fitment and spec details later when it isnt as rainy !
    • Thanks Dose.....    I appreciate it!!
    • I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.
    • I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.   
    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
