Some people are complete f**kwits. Unfortunately some of these people band together and start clubs and forums.

I remember the first Cruise for a Cure I went on (back when it was still the LS1 Forums arranging it). During the presentations, there were a couple of condescending remarks about the "slow 4 cylinder" imports. Nothing nasty, since they weren't unhappy that we showed up, but still that misplaced superiority complex guys cars that just discovered IRS across the range seem to have.

All I could think was, "We might be slow, but we weren't the pussies that stayed on the Princes Highway instead of going through the Nasho as the cruise was originally advertised".

There are plenty of decent Supra owners out there. Unfortunately, they get lost in the noise. Just like the guys on ns.com - there are some decent Silvia owners there, but you'd never know it from all the children chucking their toys out of the pram.

"it would be better off if your friend didn't come with us.

there are guys here that don't like skylines or their drivers".

I don't know, but I didn't think that was very nice. On sau cruises, cars of all kinds are welcomed.

The 1 & 2jz are good, but come on, you too would be jealous of an RB engine.

Actually had this situation a while ago with a mate and his R34.

"I might rock up to the cruise"

"Erm, their are only supras on the cruise, no other cars"

"Oh ok, I guess thats kinda cool, we let any POS on our cruises. It would be nice to just cruise with skylines :P"

Guys Im a member of the nsw supra club and just wanted to clear something up.

I didnt attend that particular cruise but I know it was organised by the nsw supra club,the reason you probably werent welcome was because they firstly didnt know and if you act like a dick on the road you would have given the club a bad rap with the cops.

The club has rules about how members act while on an official club cruise so any bad behavior would reflect on the club and leave us prone to more attention fom the police.

Yeah its true some bag skylines on the forums but 99% of the time its just in jest.You guys are afterall on the darkside :P but I do hate gtst's with GTR badges on them (unless they have rb26's)

To the member who was rude to you,Im sure was only speaking for their own opinion because most of us dont care who cruises with us as long as they don't carry on like idiots.Some members attended a cruise with the silvia club and some of them started drifting and doing burnouts in a carpark in a residential area,this is what we dont want.

Cheers

Sam

I really want to just apologise for the dickhead that spoke to you like that, 97r33gtst-typeM. I have a feeling I mite know who it was and I can tell you now, no one in the club likes him, but we try not to descriminate. :O Officially it was a NSW Supra Club cruise and so only Supras were invited, but that being said, the organisers would not 'officially' tell you to piss off. It's just some of the n00bie club wankers seem to take it upon themselves to spout club policy when they have no clue how we operate. Unofficially we would have been happy to have you join us. The majority of us bought Supras because we're enthusiests and so like all types of performance cars. Unfortunately there are a vocal few that bought them because they were in some famous movies once. :D

It is in my opinion that 20% of all Supra owners are nothing more than pretencious showpony f**ktards. It's just a shame that they're more visible than the other 80% who are actually nice people. ;)

Maybe this little incident will open the negotiations on a Skyline/Supra joint cruise. I'd definately be up for it. :(

      R34 Handbrake light saying ON and intermittently flashing

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This. The R34 handbrake icon DOES come up when the brake fluid level is low. You might be sitting right on that threshhold. I have been down this diagnosis path and this was the solution (and it was pretty much as full as your picture is to begin with).

      Unfortunately the cavaet to that is that while any scan tool should be able to read the code, the workshop will need a consult plug to OBD socket adapter. You don't have a location on your profile, where are you based?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.

      I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.

      @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation.
