By any chance you didn't lend it to Steve from AEM, when they were doing tests on your car and playing with the Wolf V5.

Just a thought.

Yeah I thought that this morning also. Sure enough I called them and yeah they did have it.....to bad it was butchered to make a loom adapter. Anyhoo they are going to buy me a new stock ECU.

On a separate note I asked them about the development for the 34 and looks like it's been dropped with no return to the project in sight at the moment. Marc isn't working at the office on Melrich Drive anymore so I'm not really sure what's going on. I know they had some big Subaru fly-by-wire project on. Meh.

That sucks!!

Any talk of re-embursment? After all they did have your car for an extended period.

I would chase them for an ecu, even if it is a R33 one, then you can sell it. I know someone that will be happy to buy it, at a reasonable price :(. They did promise you a ecu, just because plans have been altered, doesn't mean it is your problem.

I know they have a major headache, at the moment, as the manufacturer for the hand controller, they based the Wolf V5 round, has gone bust and shut down production.

Do you have another ecu to pass epa? Is Pete's the same?

Good luck with the EPA Adz, Nissans are way rich stock!

I could do with my stock ECU also as my modded one is still FOOBARed, but GAFFA has obviously found something better to do with it ..... other than return it to me...... grrrr.

Let us know how the test goes.

I miss my skyline, it is but a dirt collector now... ass end on stands.... discarded in favour of a 4.0l VQ 6 speed V40 Navara.

Yeah I'll be speaking to them when I go down, I had a contract written up. I'll push them for a 33 V500.

I'm gonna borrow Pete's yeah. Lucky huh!

Well let me know, i will be very interested :)

If they give you a ecu, make sure they also supply the adaptor loom.

Yeah just a "random inspection".

Al - I dug out the contract last night and I've filled my end of the deal regardless whether they finish the 34 ECU or not so I'm going to ask for the R33 model and loom. According to the contract I'm entitled to a "V500 Product" so I'll let you know as soon as I speak with them.

Danny - Cheers mate

Matt - Thanks, got Pete's.

Chinny - PM me your e-mail mate :D

Hey Adz, just out of Curiousity, where and when did you get pulled over?.. I was told about 5 weeks ago by a "friendly" coppa that I would be making an apperance at the EPA.. Still have not recieved a letter from them???. whats the deal?

did the Cop like me so much he let me go??.. or he couldnt be bothered filling out paperwork??.. bit confused, but kida happy.

Age - Gold mate :P

Gazzilla - I was pulled over on Burwood Hwy. This happened just before I went away so it took about 3 weeks for the EPA notice. If he issued you a fine check the notice, towards the bottom on the left you'll see an offense code and next to that it says "EPA" if they are going to report you. If it was OUR lovely coppa then yes, you will get one I'd say.

Nah had all kinds of drama with Pete's cat. In the end I could not get it on, borrowed another from Scott that night and the flanges were different so I had to rebook again!! Anyhoo, the tyres have been replaced and I have a roadworthy now so I'll get the canary cleared and I can drive it again. Just have to go to the EPA on the 10th now :D

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
