Spotted an R34 GTR (NSW plates) in Dalby this morning...

I was thinking to myself, why is there a GTR in dalby. Then I drove around the town for a bit and realised that there are 100kph zones all over the place and the roads are all long and straight...

Looked very dirty, but there on level 5 water restrictions out there...

SPOTTED A SILVER R33, GTST AT BCF ON SUNDAY, IT HAD A MASSIVE WING, HUGE INFACT.

This was probably me also .. if your talking about BCF at lawnton .. on Saturday

(mental note : take the ute next time .. big boxes don't fit in skylines easily)

BTW .. that's not a MASSIVE wing or a HUGE wing .. it's a "BIG ASS" wing

( I never knew this but my fellow SAU'ers pointed me in the right direction with comments like .. that's a "BIG ASS" wing, I like people who share their knowledge :O )

seen a few this arvo on my way around sunnybank

- Black r33 on mains rd at light near plaza heading towards sunnybank hills

- at same lights but on mccullough st was a white r33 s2

- and me...oh yeah of course =P

then i seen

- 83.GTR black 32 parked at what was prob his house

- White r33 with huge NISMO sticker down the side w/CF bonnet and dark rims (looks hot!)

- another white r33 with pretty nice kit on mains rd going towards kessels road.

just to name a few =P

That was me ... was waiting for you to pull out from behind me so I could look for your SAU sticker .. only bother to acknowlege the 'stickered' cars these days .. sick of getting the silly looks from other Skyline drivers when you wave. If you live out that way I'll keep an eye out for you in future

Yeah, I was going to pull into the left lane to come up next to you, but the whole way in the right lane was moving considerably faster than the left.

I used to have the SAU sticker on the same rear left qtr panel I saw yours on, but it went wrinkely and weird so I took it off, have to get a new one.

My girlfriend lives out that way, so I am that direction fairly often. Thats the first time I went that way around though, on account of all the roadworks going on in Irabuckby (or however you spell it). It took me 30 minutes to get through them on Tuesday!

Oh and I noticed your wing was a 'Big Ass' wing. Have you also got a little baby 'stealth' type wing on the bootlid as well?

Also on the way home at around 6.10~6.20ish heading north on old northern rd, driving with a black R33, can't remember the plates but you had two side by side cannons. Actually looked quite tough. Very neat car too.

Yeah used to work out that way a fair bit. Wait till you go a bit further out... :verymad:

ah yeah i meant lawnton lol.

spotted it from acorss the road and could only focus on the "big ass" wing..

OK just got back from Hervey Bay (OMG what a long drive when you go via Kingaroy, im stuffed)

Anyway i spotted a Gold R33 with a black roof and A pillars @ ELI Waters which is right next to Hervey Bay. The number plate was ICR33...

Looked pretty good, did wave cause i was in the MAGNA PWR...

Also yesterday on the way into hervey bay I saw a White R33 GTR at the Hervey bay go kart track parked in the carpark... Too far away and going too fast to spot the plates...

ah! dammit! if i'd known u were up there col, i woulda got you to pick up a set of rims for me!!!! :(

Oh and i have the Magna Wagon PWR too so i would have been able to fit them...

Ill be back up there mid next month...

Saw majorsick in his GTR on Kingston Rd, im not sure if you knew it was me.

Im always seeing you lately when im in different cars.

Also saw a gun metal R34 going up Hamilton Rd near Chermside about 5ish

Followed a white R33 s1 on the m1 they had a good looking bodykit and you passed me while I was slowing down for a radar :P, and a silver R32 at springwood and the same thing happened with a radar, but I did notice that the 2 occupants were good looking women, who waved and smiled.

    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @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.
