Couple of SAU cars got some awesome footage, the enr034 mobile, not urs, and orgazmc. and my car got some background footage :):D

dam, i remembered this was on this morning, then forgot by the time it came on. I hear me and flick are spotted in the stands too with a couple of friends lol. Anyone know if the footage will be on channel 10 next weekend? Hoping its the same footage if it is.

so last night i went driving (filled my tank up costed about $100 :P) to Noarlunga

picked a friend up, went to the City, it was scary haha, 1st time i drove in there and

on North Tce there were all these people just walking out, by the end of it i was just like

"f*k it, i ain't stopping". went to Nuri dropped my cousin off then went back to Noarlunga

dropped my friend off and came home, got home about 5am haha, 8 1/2hrs of driving

i had a few cops behind me, i was shitting myself but luckily i didn't get pulled over :)

yes steve she was at lan my dinner and the cruises

and i dont know if i can say who she is

*thinks back*

yes pete she said she was a hairdresser but she also said that she did tattoos at burn n hell down pt adelaide where i get mine done and she doesnt

ah shit, sounds like pixie.

lol she also told my brother that she is 4 wks pregnant with his baby lol

and she isnt

classy.

if there was damage done it would of been so minor its an ungodly noise but probably very little damage

I have a quick car-related question. I accidentally turned the ignition while the motor was running in the Shtbox (ie 2004 Astra). Would there have been any damage caused by this?

Thanks in advance.

i do it all the time in the magna. never had a problem. aside from the seized motor and all. but im sure youre fine. :)

oh yeah, work was on fire last night, literally, was greatly amusing. seems like half of the fire department was there. mobile command center included.

Norman this is no place for car related questions :)

you should be fine mate, no problems.

Lastnight I got pulled over for apparently "street racing". I was at the lights and the car next to me took off, I just drove away normally and then over took the car later on. Cop was following, pulled me over and not him. He let me off though, didn't really look over my car to much at all either. Was just asking me questions like, "who do you live at home with?" etc.

I don't know if I'm lucky or not..

He was just checking up. Maybe they have a description of a criminal and thought it was you? Happened to me in my Silvia at the Plaza, cop on a bike pulled me over, checked my license then said "were looking for a guy who looks like you. Have a nice night"

Or maybe the cop was bored and just wanted to talk to someone:P

    • 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.
