Recently today my R34 had a problem which was found out due to the Immobilizer system. the car would not start due to the immobilizer not deactivating so i would be able to start my car. had to call up RACV and they had to power the starter motor manually for it to start up so i could drive it home and as soon as i were to turn it off i cannot turn it back on until i get the immobilizer fixed. would anyone happen to know a good auto electrician or someone with knowledge on immobilizers to give me any contact details on trying to fix this immobilizer problem or to just basically take it out?

Cheers

+1. or if you can get it going see stylyn in boronia and let them sort it out.

I got it towed back yesterday to the dealer SEI motors where i bought it from. a mechanic there spent all day today looking and checking stuff with it and they rung me at 5.30pm when they were closing saying that they could not find the problem with it why it would not start. so not exactly sure the problem. there electrician is checking it tomorrow to see if he can find any problems otherwise im not sure why my car wont start. when you try to it doesnt even try you just hear a clicking noise which sounds like its coming from the starter motor. the only way to start it temporarily was using this device RACV supplied which pwoered the starter motor manually but the car wasnt running to its normal potential. couldnt go over 3k revs and acceraltion was very very slow. took about 10 seconds to get to 60 lol.. so yeah. am not quiet sure what can be done at this point in time.

IF anyone has heard of problem like this before or something similiar please feel free to let me know

Thanks

    • Mount some of these on your dash? https://www.greddy.com/products/16001720  
    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
