Last weekend i was driving from Sydney to Melbourne via Hume Highway. It was like 3am in the morning,a supra drove past me and slow down(i think he was waiting for me) and when i catch up,overtake him and he pull next to me and overtook me again. I was doing 120(i should be driving 90) and we keep overtaking each other for a few times,than i start to get annoying. So i put down a gear and drove past him. About 20 seconds later,a car behind me is flashing high beam,i thought f&%k man,not again..SO i just ignore it,less than 10 seconds later it start to flash blue and red lights,than i know is a cop.(Not the supra,there is a highway petrol hiding in the bush) I was doing 160 at the time,so they pull me over,took my license,gave me a paper that says i have to go to court. I dont blame anyone but when i think about it now i feel how stupid i was..

Today my gf drive my car,some how she lose control and bend the front right hand side wheel..Does anyone know where i can find some parts for that(i dont even know what i need) around Northern Beaches in Sydney..

been there done that..

prob lower control arms.. or hub assy.. you really need to have a look under... also check that your nothing is leaking.. if so it will either be your shocks or steering rack..

get it on a hoist so you know what u need.. ring round just jap, and places round moorebank.. bit of a trek but if u get the best price it will save u alot..

good luck

well unfortunately you will be getting nicely f**ked when you go to court. nothing you can do, you broke the law and got caught. some people would say that 160 in a 90 zone at 3am is a tad reckless and i'm sure the magistrate will be one of them.

160 in a 90 zone? That wat 70 k's over the speed limit? If you go over 45 or more over hte speed limit that a licence supension of minimum three months. But since u did more u might get more. Sorry to hear, but doode u shouldn't let another w@nk make u speed as much as u did. Would have been better to be annoyed or slowed down than lose ur licence for several months.

How did u get home that nite anyway...just out of curiosity.

160 i say dont worry about the car cause you wont have a license for a long time

No way man,i love my car..Im thinking of selling it,but never let it sit there with a damage..

Any way,ill let you guys know how long i will lose my license..hopefully no one will need that information.. :devil:

I also got pull over by the cops when i had my r33 on the Hume Highway but thats was about 4 years ago... and i was trying to catch up with this black supra... but i was doing a 100 but the cops pulled me over when i was at 70 and told me that i was speeding and they had me on camera about 3km ago doing 105 which is funny because i would have thought they would get the supra before me since i know that thing was doing atleast 140 and was way ahead of me... i wasn't going to go that fast....

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
