people are more annoyed when they hear an alarm. its like the boy who cried wolf i guess.

Agreed...

Car alarms are just like everything else these days, with all the visible crime that happens - only a small minority of people are willing to involve themselves in such injustice towards others - and car alarms are bloody annoying!!

At least the alarms are still useful for deterring thieves when they are in your car, panicking with adrenalin. I can bet that if my alarm was not going off when my car was broken into, i would have lost much more than some spare change and my freaking ash tray.

Anyone got a 32 ashtray for sale btw?!

I think Commodore owners cop it alot worse.

Oh well these days thanks to the media, anything that's got even a hint of modification is a hoon car.

We're all essentially in the same boat really.

Wog stop your moaning and get back to work.

If i saw you in the street id give you a serve as well just for driving a R33 :P

On a lighter note we need to catch up for a beer...

So i can slap you for selling the bike!!!

its all cars in general not just skylines or holdens

has any1 seen that anti speeding add on tv with the xr8 doing a skid n the vl slideing around the corner.... funniest add ever because its anti speeding but no1's actually speeding LOL shows u how dumb the politions are, half of em couldnt even tell the difference between a commodore n a skyline

Old people just like to complain, besides anything sounds loud when compared to a grandpa's Camry.

I think there is a lot of people out there that don't do any young people any favours.

For example P Platers these days, any one who has P plates is portrayed by the media as hoons or casualties waiting to happen.

I had one Young guy in particular in my street that liked doing doughies on my neighbours lawn and burnouts in the street at any where from 10pm - 2am in a 180SX. It's guys like this that spoil it for everyone - old guy hears or sees an import an automatically it's assumed that this guy is a lunatic like the clown before.

The young guy got caught doing a burnout - drunk, whilst on a suspended licence for you guessed it DUI - He also tried to be a bogan hero and punch his way out of it - needless to say he is very well behaved now.

theyre just pissed cos theyre to old to drive it properly and want to vent at someone .....but young enough to still have enough faculties left to get frustrated at the aproach of the grim reaper......lets face it it you learnt to drive inthe kinda tin boxes they had 40 or fifty year ago youd be jealous too....

ive already promised myself that when im old and grey and need the walking frame and stick...every time a car goes past with a decent note tothe exhaust im going to pause and remember that skyline smile........far better imho that pishing it up the wall of a friday night .......

    • 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.  
    • 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. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
