Hi guys!

Ok, I was the recipient of road rage this morning after I merged into someone's lane. Nothing wrong, except he sped up to try and block me from his lane, but he was too far behind and by the time he caught up, I was already in the lane so he slammed on his brakes.

Next thing I know, he's on the horn, gesturing to me like he's a fcuking 9 y.o whinging about pulling his thumb out his ass. But the thing that gets me, is I see in the rear view mirror he pulls out a fcuking camera and starts taking photo's of my number plate!

I'm normally cool as, but that made me think "WTF!?" and I drove so that I'd come up to a set of lights and then got out and went to his car and took photo's. Only had my camera phone with me but...guess what? The camera didn't record the image!! :dry:

I can't stand these fcukwits who want to carry on and all the rest of it in their car and when I went up to him, he just say's I'm with the RTA! and winds his windows up like a hurricane. You tell them to step up but they just dry up. :)

Anyway, what I wanted to ask you my friends is has this guy who works at the RTA got anything he can get me on? Nothing eventuated altough I would've loved to have sorted him out.

Cheers!

personally, i wouldn't worry about it, just let it go

it's his word against yours

so he took a pic of your number plate, what's he going to do??

the fact that you got out of the car and challenged him was pretty silly IMO. for all you know, he could of had a weapon etc.

i can understand your pissed off tho, road rage is getting worse.

when i was on the freeway driving back from texikhana on the weekend, i was overtaking a corolla probably doin 100km/h, i was doing smack on 110km/h (the posted speed limit), so i was gradually overtaking him. but some fool in a jacked up landcruiser tailgates me from behind (about one car length) as i'm in the middle of overtaking him, and starts flashing his high beams and beaping me because in his mind i'm not overtaking fast enough. when i'm done overtaking the corolla, the landcruiser overtakes me by cutting right in front of me, and i almost locked up at 110km/h.

i was still angry about it when i got home, so i went and played scarface on ps2 and blew up drug dealers, my anger was displaced constructively :sorcerer:

Hahah check out this guy

haha and DOSEME had this comment

Unbelievable! As if doing burnouts and skids isn't stupid enough, this idiot was attempting (and succeding) to get his car airborne on a steep decline. He thinks he is really cool with his noisey car, but he will come a cropper one day

This hoon was doing wheelies and spins and making a hell of a racket in the early morning when people are trying to sleep. Then he speeds up and down the street. His car makes very loud strange noises. I think there must be something wrong with it. It sounds like there is a 20ft pidgeon outside. NOT IMPRESSED!

I Believe that would be a BOV mate lol pidgeon hey

some people have very little to do to pass the time.

There is even a complaint for people smoking in their cars?

Also this is gold

"I was shocked when i noticed a silver nissan s13 coupe passing me on the left, i counted 9 people piled into this car. I cannot understand how this was possible"

and the response . . .

"maybe they were clowns and they were late for the circus, you dont know the full story"

On my way to work this morning, was cruising along Homebush Bay Drive and came to the set of lights which you turn at to go to Lidcombe Station.

Beforehand, I had merged into the middle lane from the left lane, with a decent gap between me and the van behind in the middle lane.

Now, on approach to these lights, I had moved into the middle lane, and just as I do, the light goes yellow. At this point I'm too far away to make it through safely, but am far enough away to be able to apply the brakes slightly harder than normal and stop.

So I apply the brakes and come to a complete stop.

About 5 seconds later, this retard P plater in a Mitsubishi Express van felt it was necessary to come screaming up behind me, jam on his brakes, serve all over the lane and create a buttload of tyre smoke, and then honk his horn as if I was in the wrong.

Turned around and looked at him and he's sitting there with a dumbass look on his face as if to say "DUHRR WHY DID YOU DO THAT?!?!"

Rolled my eyes at him and booted it off the line and continued on my way to work.

that sucks man but thats when you get the old 2 piece club locks out and wave em around ull see how quickly they'll drive off :(

i had some wank flash me to move out of the way on the M4. it was a 3 lane road, 80km/h due to road works and no one else on the road not even in the middle and right lane. i was happily sitting on 80km/h and he comes screaming up my rear end flashing at me to move aside. f*ck that i stayed on 80 and he drove past giving me the dirtiest look. i caught up and stayed side by side. its funny watching a commodore or something try to get away from u and all u gotta do is tap the accelerator and ur on his side again with a nice flutter sound hehe.

You were in the left lane?

He wanted you to move out of the left lane? What a butthole.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By MBS206 · Posted

      If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.

      AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.

      As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.

      spot the stagea

      By AnimalGarage · Posted

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.
