To the bloody idiot in the S14 (colour and plates withheld) this morning that drifted a completely blind corner in Port Melbourne whilst there was oncoming traffic just metres away. What exactly were you trying to prove? Mate, I don't care how skillful you think you are but if you wanna be some sort of hero then keep it off the fkn streets, especially in peak hour traffic! You could've seriously injured somebody!

sexy 32 with SAU stickers at Calder today

Was it the silver one next to the road in the carpark closest to the entrance? If yes, that was me...Car's for sale, want to buy it :P

Was funny as with me and 3 mates in it, nothing like watching a 6ft 1 dude trying to fit in the back of a 32 with another 6ft dude in the seat in front of him hahahahahaaaaaaa.

Did you score him bad????:nyaanyaa:

black s13 with 180 front end at box hill, tram rd, stranded or something...

red p plates, sau stickers, r31 australia stickers and chasers stickers... at about 5pm, i was the asian guy who walked past and the yellow gtt that drove past if you saw me.

Yeah, tire scrubbed thru to the loom and ate a wire. Car refused to start so had to get it trailered to the workshop.

Sorry man, didn't see your 34. Were you the guy that gave the thumbs up as you were walking past? haha, sorry, you'll need to be a bit more specific, so many asians in box hill :P

lol yes 'asian guy that walked past' really narrows it down

HAHAHAA, yeah..

the guy who gave the thumbs up..

sorry man, i didn't realise how stupid my description was. so how's the car now? hope all's good.

Haha yeah twas me, no worries man wanted to cruise along with you but the gf wanted to go Ikea >_< Love 32 GTR's and yours looked pretty mint.

Thanks bud, appreciate it, your 34 looked nice too :D Maybe one day i'll catch you on the roads.

Spotted Cas, despite her plates NODORI was taking up all 3 lanes of prinny AWD drifting lmao

LMFAO hahahaha nice josh. did you film it?? :yucky:

lol and cas calm down on the hooning ways jeez woman what is wrong with you :nyaanyaa:

id just spent 2.5hrs in t life on the phone to some offshore bitch and the end result was: too bad your phone and all your photo id got nicked, cant give u another phone till you give us photo id. i am phoneless till monday :P u'd be pissed off too!

but hes lying, i was stuck in traffic :P

The Gods never lie Cas....they saw you with their own eyes and they were proud, You WERE in traffic, gear 3 rev out drop into second frying all fours, then i saw a bit of back wheel lock action with the good ole hand brake, a quick snap left then right and you were weaving in and out of traffic like you had a 1000HP GT-R.... :/ And you waved all at the same time while doing so.....i might have been day dreaming and hoping that you were doing that or maybe you were, who knows...

the only true part of that was me waving at you :P

Spotted 2 GTR's today

Very nice looking blue 32 GTR in Emerald, number plates were BLUE32 or similar

Dark coloured (didnt get a good look because I was trying to overtake at the time) R33 GTR in Ferntree Gully

    • perhaps i should have mentioned, I plugged the unit in before i handed over to the electronics repair shop to see what damaged had been caused and the unit worked (ac controls, rear demister etc) bar the lights behind the lcd. i would assume that the diode was only to control lighting and didnt harm anything else i got the unit back from the electronics repair shop and all is well (to a point). The lights are back on and ac controls are working. im still paranoid as i beleive the repairer just put in any zener diode he could find and admitted asking chatgpt if its compatible   i do however have another issue... sometimes when i turn the ignition on, the climate control unit now goes through a diagnostics procedure which normally occurs when you disconnect and reconnect but this may be due to the below   to top everything off, and feel free to shoot me as im just about to do it myself anyway, while i was checking the newly repaired board by plugging in the climate control unit bare without the housing, i believe i may have shorted it on the headunit surround. Climate control unit still works but now the keyless entry doesnt work along with the dome light not turning on when you open the door. to add to this tricky situation, when you start the car and remove the key ( i have a turbo timer so car remains on) the keyless entry works. the dome light also works when you switch to the on position. fuses were checked and all ok ive deduced that the short somehow has messed with the smart entry control module as that is what controls the keyless entry and dome light on door opening   you guys wouldnt happen to have any experience with that topic lmao... im only laughing as its all i can do right now my self diagnosed adhd always gets me in a situation as i have no patience and want to get everything done in shortest amount of time as possible often ignoring crucial steps such as disconnecting battery when stuffing around with electronics or even placing a simple rag over the metallic headunit surround when placing a live pcb board on top of it   FML
    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.
