new GOR posted in events.

Don't think there are any long vid's though.

And i'm pretty sure nark was the only one with Video... Phat 32 had a flatt battery (lost of use that was) LOL

should make better use of them... good vid's could come outta some of those spots (specially through the otways top with the fog)

very fun i might add :D

but following that mobile dunny truck for a while sucked!

and seeing the flames come out the zorst was cool. :)

Poyz: Yeah :) Was fun.

Seeing the 32 GTR in my mirrors was pretty cool - we scared a few other cars which caused much amusement.

Being passed by 2 GTRs like you are going backwards must be great for the brown pants industry.

inark: Don't mean to be a code-cop, but the reason your images aren't working is your slashes go the wrong way. Windows (DOS) likes '' but HTTP likes '/' so they don't work on my Mac.

Can you fix? Would like to see the photos :)

oooh your gonna cop it now! :)

all speeds were adhered to. even the ones on the GOR which said 100 followed by a few sharp turns :D

James: My brother told me Ula was driving like a pansy throughout most of it.

Could have something to do with the fact he once had to get his car towed home from Lorne. He can fill you in when he reads this post and abuses me over the phone.

Lucky for him my brother and I had our cars to go on an interesting drive on the way back home in the dark. Those corners come plenty fast in the dark, esp when they're blind!

:goddam: :goddam:

Coming out of the carpark i looked away for 5 sec. and lost the whole group. Phat32 was behind me and he didn't see where you all went. We cruised up and down the town, then decided that you could be anywhere, so i headed home. I saw Phat32 do a u turn, but he gave no signal, so i thought he was going to try his luck.

Anyway, that last photo shoot looks mad, i'm really pissed i missed it :Pissed: !

BUT my drive home was really exciting and intense at the same time. Not being held back by my inferiour (sp?) cousins, the R33 GTR's, (:bahaha: :)) i was able to unlesh all 205+rwkw on the helpless GOR. Nothing like overtaking 2 cars at 150 then braking to take the corner with the ass end feeling a little loose. One brief millisecond of OOH 5h1t!, but with a slight correction of steering the HICAS did it's job.

All in all thanks to everyone for making it a GREAT day!!! Nothing better than Nice cars, excellant company and alot of twisty roads. Next time i will swap digits with a few people to make sure i don't loose my way and miss out on a great photo shoot. We should do this again VERY soon! Keep in touch.

Hey guys!

Sorry for ditching you guys but we ended up in Warrnambol (spelling?). I said I wanted to take it easy and do some sight seeing but Pete is such a bad influence and all I saw was a blur... :confused:

However it was a pleasure to meet some of you and good to hear you were "taking it easy" along GOR... :uh-huh:

If any of you are up this way don't hesitate to let us know.

Get a Whiteline Handling Kit. You can go faster :D

Btw: The 6spd TT Supra last night. Not bad...doesn't feel fast due to its down low torquey nature. But it's fast. Kinda like Den's car. It's missing the big torque hit as boost comes on.

Ula: I'll say again - was very fun run. A real buzz. Escpecially as we were legal for 90% of the time.

The flame-on 'feature' of the car is pretty cool! Nark saw flame at one point on the way down too. Pity I have this 'legality' conscious and will get a cat put on. Not before I get a photo though :D

james: ahhh... i wondered why all that black smoke was coming straight out when you were flooring it :P

Few got lost by the end point... but well there are a lot less skylines in VIC than NSW so we probably get less on our turnouts than up there.

well at the Geelong stage we had approx 17-20 cars if i'n not mistaken ?!?!?

lost about 3-4 at least before the pics i reckon.

That's not a bad turn out as talking to everyone.... approx 3/4 of those there had only had their cars a few months at the monst.

So that means things will only get better !

Plus there were a few that missed out but you get that.

    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
