lol ryan,do we wanna know how you know how to do that :) lol

eddy, ryan pretty much knows everything about everything most times so more than likely he will be able to figure it out. Hopefully its something small.

haha lol, i had to bypass mine when my alarm shit itself :D

and thanks for the kind words :thumbsup:

Are you saying no electrics work?

An immobiliser may effect your central locking (but i wouldn't have thought so) but if you have no other electrics in the car I doubt its the immobiliser and certainly not the starter motor.

Can you get your alarm to activate? interior light or headlights to work? hazard warning lights? (an immobiliser shouldn't stop all of these from working and will indicate the problem is instead between the battery and the fuse box)

You said you checked out the battery - but it might be worth trying another one if you have one handy, or try a jump-start.

I would also be checking the battery terminals (you wouldn't be the first to have corrosion in the terminal cause a problem like this)

Not sure if the 32 has a fuse in the main battery line (some cars do) or a big spade fitting that has corroded (took me a while to find this problem on an old valiant once)

Yeah, none of the electronics work. None of the lights (interior, headlights, etc). I'll try the battery out of one of my parents cars today but it shouldn't be that as it's only a few weeks old and it's been working fine since I put it in.

anyone got a spare rb26 injector????? one of mine looks like the seal is on the way out......i plan to go upgraded injectors down the line, just wana get a stokie one in there for now untill i can afford to do a bunch of mods at once

OUCH!

quick question for people, anyone know what the legalities are on people parking directly opposite your driveway? I knudged into the neighbours car across the road this morning but they were parked directly opposite my driveway. As far as i was aware it was illegal to park opposite a driveway? So i wanna know if im entirely at fault or if he is partly to blame too?

Cheers.

i know ur not meant to park closer than 1.4 or 1.7 meters from a driveway (on the same side of the road)

far as i know common sense should prevail when u park your car across the road from a drivewya, sounds like your neighbor may be a few sandwiches short of a picnic

Anyone know where to find a bosch 040 for cheap?

yeah i possibly know of a place will PM you later

OUCH!

i always thought it was and or should be against the law but mum says no its ok

eddy, Performance Auto Electrical are also very good. Have done a couple of small jobs on my car. He comes into my work abit and does some jobs for us too.

So just went to try and speak to the people across the road about the accident, the have gone out so left it with the babysitter to tell them to come talk to me. Spoke to plice, they say there is no law against car parking there so looks like im up for a repair bill :S

Well im back for the first time in a few days, had an awesome 21st, was feeling a bit sick at my party unfortunately and didnt get hammered, but i guess im glad i enjoyed the night. Just finished putting together my Blitz R34 D1 drift RC car :blink: Gotta go buy some more paint tomorrow to finish off the shell.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
