accident in the hills? that reminds me, when we went on the hill cruise i noticed a cefiro on jacks on the side of the rest point in the hills near corkscrew - u remember the one im talking bout sam where i was going to stop but couldnt.

lol, yeah, was funny, you wanted to stop but the trail of skylines behind you didn't :cheers:

I cant believe you didnt see the white AE86 in front of it

nah i didnt was too bz trying to look down the side of the cliff where theirs enormous mining bobcats/trucks then spotted the cefiro. Man the corkscrew was fun particulary after hearing what rob - i think thats his name, had to do in his rwd gtr. rofl

scary stuff hay, i didnt catch the whole story, but didnt sound good

yeah he had major issues trying to take their 180 degree hairpin turns and the likes. we should do the same route again, but instead of heading back to adel via eagle on the hill. head straight to handorf from the pub at lobethol.

sounds good dooky, i really like that piece of road, well suited to skylines :cheers:

handles good? definately good for handbrake corner entries

Handles like poo, but hey you gotta use your imagination in these sorts of cars, wouldn't catch me rippin no handbrake in the 33 tho, my mate has but he's a full on slider, used to have a 31(as stated in drift battle being "the most drifted out 31 in Australia) but the damn fool has switched to a 180.

yeah but by looking at the respones to organised events ppl pull out at the last moment. ie dinner and cruise as a good example. so would be good just to get phone numbers and go say something like "want to crusie this afternoon" and make a decision straight away instead of yeah i'll go then later say nah i cant.

I also second that motion, and sometimes it's better with just 4 or 5 when it's like that!

my brothers 180 is set up for drift and when you pull the hand brake epsecially in this weather condition, you better know what you are doing cause the thing goes absolutely sideways. same cant be said bout the 33 though as i havent bothered trying.

But the Mt Lofty cruise was a good turnout, nice weather, no probs at all! I sort of need a bit of notice cos i got to drive 100ks to the meet up point :cheers:

Yeh my mates got a thing for ripping it heaps early like i mean heaps early, he wants to rip it at the canteen at Mallala for turn one, and has even gone as far as saying doin a 360 into slide turn one, but i said I'll appaude when i see that one!!

I dont think 33s are suited to full-on drifting, theyre more of a drivers car

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
