miiiiiiitch avcr is runnin sweet now its right on the money :-)

Wiiiiiill..... sounds good man, dont think ive been for a ride in your car yet, youll have to take me for a spin, and work something out with those wheels haha :)

I had a rather enlightening morning...went go pick up breakfast this morning from macca's and as per normal there is usually a police car there picking up there morning breakfast as well...in this case there was one and another turned up after i had parked. the two in the store walked out and started talking to the two guys who had just turned up. Anyway while this was happening i got out of my car and went to walk inside when the female police officer looked at me and asked me if that was my skyline, i politely said yes and then she informed me that apparently turbo timers become defects once you have walked away from your car. So you are allowed to stand next to your car while the timer runs out or you must disable it, otherwise you are able to get a defect. anyway staying polite i said i didnt know and ill make sure to stay next to my car next time and thanked her for the advice, and wished her a good day.

did anyone else know this? i thought it was rather a bizarre defect..

Yeah, the police officer is 100% correct. Usually when you buy a turbo timer you research these kind of things. Just take it as a "Learn as you go" kinda thing. You cant know it all, so don't be down on yourself. - Straight from the horses mouth i reckon!

Was the Macca's good? mcdonalds-funny-pic.jpg

Oh....and one more tip...."Drive Thru" - Allot easier and avoids these types of defects. - Just sharing the experience around. Although i had to stop using it when the car was too low...you wont have that problem...sits like a 4x4 :thumbsup:

Hows Noosa looking today? Was thinking about a surf aye....good weather for it?

Yeah I knew bout this one too, it's pretty stupid if you ask me, but that's the rules!!
yeh i never bought my timer it came with the car and i cant edit it with teh controls like you can so i never know how long its going to run for. But i mean how can you hand out a defect for something thats only defectable under certain reasons. It is not like with a bov set to atomspheric you can just plumb back. The only way to fix this defect is to stand next to your car or turn it off. Ah well cheers jase.

    • Hi. This is just my curiosity because iam sure the tuner figure something out...but either way i want to ask. The "problem" is that the Nistune ECU (Stagea FW and RB25DET NEO from Stagea) sees many times the speed than the speedo does(he says the speedo show 120 km/h - correct speed and the ECU shows like 510km/h ) I told him that this car/tranny getting speed from rear diff. If iam not mistaken the RB25DET NEO "need" to see tranny speed sensor? (my tranny has the plug for it). So couple of "question" If he connects/wire the speed sensor to the tranny...are the signals gonna intervene and if...what if he disconnects the rear diff one and the speedo stops working? Or the "new" sensor from the tranny "take over" and will not going need the one from diff? As i said i know he figure/get that done...iam just curious to know what are the solutions 🙂 
    • Your IACV is set to idle too low. You need to adjust it via the screw Duncan mentioned. From memory it should be 650rpm with the valve electrics unplugged. What is it trying to idle at with the IACV plugged in?
    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion 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. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
