You make it sound like I'm about to die Chris ;)

I'll have to get organised for SAUVIC then... despite the fact I won't have a Skyline (at least in VIC)... first day down will be 17th of July so I'm good to go anytime after that !

If it looks like you will be here for long just kill yourself now. What a cold miserable hole. 6 years and other than the track days and SAU outings I've despised every second.

Miserable one day - shithouse the next.

:D

If you're gonna live in melb, you're definitley going to have to pick and AFL team :laugh:

True, you will be left out of many conversations if you don't follow AFL. I know from experience.

Seeing as you're from Sydney, and probably moving to South Melbourne, I think the the Swans are definately your team. They used to be based in South Melbourne.

I'm talking about day-to-day life, like work etc. Many of my Melbourne friends were big AFL fans as I found most Melbournians are. When conversing about AFL I never knew what the hell they were going on about. I had never known the rules and never heard of the players they often talked about.

To me the game was full of forward passes, knock-ons, and almost everyone is off-side. :D

Well I gotta say from a 'liveable' point of view Melbourne certainly has it all over Sydney. If you want to get somewhere, its straightforward/simple/easy, theres little traffic, people are generally friendlier and despite the occasional cool night and downpour, I'd say the weather has been good !!

My only gripe being that of having recieved a parking fine outside my own house... within a week... damn council.....

If anyone wants to meet up for a beer anytime in the next few weeks let me know / shoot me a PM :D

I can't believe no one has told you to spend a whole weekend at Revolver!

And is it Little Collins street where those side alleys go and there are little underground bars. Just walk around at midnight looking for well dressed people coming out of strange places and go where they came from.

Few of us are local to you, well within a km or two. Local beers are always good as $50 cab fares home suck! Defo come to the meeting on Tuesday though. :)

I am in Port Melb, near the Tassie ferry.

Tuesday sounds too good to refuse...

Providing I'm finished work by then I'll be there.... who am I looking out for to meet so I don't end up standing around like an idiot??

PS: Need I ask what revolver is?

There are about 40-60 of us depending on the turnout.

We are in the meeting/function area with the projector. Not hard to miss, and you can enter the room from Moray St itself.

Revolver, on Chapel St as posted, not far from you, or me hehe :(

Its not as bad as people say if you ask me

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
