There are a lot of crazy drivers out there and the slightest thing ticks them off. I once “apparently” cut someone off while overtaking them… so he speed past me, gets back into my lane and literally stands on the brakes. He was driving one of those old beat up commodores with no abs and there was smoke everywhere. He stops in the middle of the road and blocks a whole lane, so I change lanes and drive past him and give him a stare. He ends up following me for the next 3-4 minutes driving like a real hoon and almost loses it around a roundabout. All I saw was smoke in the rear view mirror. I was pretty close to work and didn’t want him knowing where I work so I eventually stop and put my window down & he gets out and starts abusing me. I lose him at the next intersection, but was definitely a scary moment. I always drive really careful around old commodores now especially if they look like they’re modified or there’s a young guy at the wheel.

had an idiot cutting all through traffic yesterday......he cut me off...i sorta raised my hand and just shook my head....but realised, its no point....the guy was doing it to everyone - eventually he will get beaten up....so meh....

wasnt in my skyline either so wasnt that worried...i figure if he crashed into my civic, i will get more back from insurance....than selling it

I was coming home from work one afternoon travelling on the highway so doing the speed limit and there was a vt commodore (nothing against commodore drivers) cutting in and out of the traffic for about 3-4 kms. There were two cars in front a ute with a country looking guy behind the wheel he sorta looked like troy dan and also a ladie in a bmw in front of him.

Im not actually sure weather he clipped her or just cut her off but all of a sudden the traffic come to a complete stop everyone had locked up there brakes in the right lane, this was 5 in the afternoon so the traffic was quite heavy on the bruce highway and troy dan jumped out and went up and asked if the ladie was ok. so the guy driving the commodore hopped out of his car, when he approached troy dan and the lady, troy dan threw a punch at the commodore guy, he ended up chasing him about a 100 metres down the grassy strip in the middle of the highway trying to lay into him while there cars were parked in the right lane of the highway this went of for a good 5 to 10 minutes traffic was backed up for ages, anyway the guy in the commodore bolted back to his car and took off.

Its something you dont see everyday, i found it pretty funny, you just dont know what some people will do.

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
