Hi all,

Unfortunately I have been told some rather disturbing info.

I thought I would pass this on as I would hate for something to

happen to anyones car, as I would be pissed if it was mine.

Apparently these people are only targeting Skylines, they are stealing them and

dumping them in the bush stripped and burnt out.

Cars that are fitted with security devices are being stripped for parts.

They are taking anything they can.

I was told this by a fellow SAU member and we thought we should let everyone know

Please people be careful where you leave your car and if you see anything suss report it

Bad, bad news.

Thanks for the heads up...

Im sure everyone who owns a Skyline already takes extra care with where they park it/how long for etc...

But obviously now the people in Newcastle will just have to take a little extra.

Yeah but some ppl can't get full comp like us youngins it sucks :) the most disturbing news is our only alternative Alarms, and you say alot are getting past them.

im only 22... theres alot of car theft up where i was living before newy so i didnt really have a choice.

but even then, alarms??? how often do you hear one go off and most ppl just walk by or get annoyed at the noise? :)

and you would sh*t yourself if you knew how easy they where to by-pass when you know what you're doing.

(i mean alarms and immobolisers)

    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
