Ash: Re. BBQ:

Yeah - good point :P

Maybe meet (no pun intended) at BMT around 9.30am ish - and we do a run to Coles from there (Ivanhoe just around corner).

That way we can cater for the day?

u farkin homo talk about me when im not even in the state!!

had to write this from a little internet cafe in the queensland rainforest!!

Um, I'm in great need of sleep, but I guess I should do it for the team....

I've kinda been off to the side while all this stuff has been getting organised. :)

Not interested in the dyno run, I did one not long ago, and haven't done any more mods since, but acsplit tells me that I need to turn up to talk to people, so I guess I'm in.

See ya's there

Come on down from 10.00am.

We'll fire up the BBQ around 11.00am - it's never too early for sausages :)

Do we need to worry about vegie-snags or are the sawdust, fingers and breadcrumb variety fine with people?

UPDATE  

possibly this day will be cancelled due to noise issues with the neighbours

surely we can still do the bbq part of it?

maybe we should remove our exhausts for testing :(

I have a db meter to keep things in check [serious].

yes yes.

I am guessing they are right next to housing then. :D people that complain about noise DURING the DAY really get my beef - but they are not getting my sausages dammit ;)

seriously, why live on a planet with 8 billion people if you dont like to use your ears ? then again, live i the bush, still some noise but prob not as loud...

*shrugs*

Update - Sorry guys, Dyno Day WILL go ahead, but will be posponed.... Recieved some noise complaints on the weekend and we've decided to minimize dyno on the weekend untill our sound deadening is completed.... Hopefully will have a new date by end of week...

As for the meet, I think we should still have a cook up and cruise... I'll leave that up to the MAS committeee to finalise..

Sorry from all at BMT for any disappointment/inconveinience/sorrow....

Doc.

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t 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 when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
