I'm just gonna have a futile whinge here guys.

I'd just like to point out that this morning is officially my second worst morning of the year.

This Melbourne weather has reached a new all time low. As I stood in my living room and gazed out the window onto Malvern Rd this morning never have I had such an overwhelming urge to get back in Bed. Here I am at work 3 hours after waking up and I am still suffering from this deep blue funk. I'm not actually depressed or anything its just that this crap crap weather really drags my spirits down.

Anyone else out there feeling dark this morning?

:P:D:) :) :)

w2ell coz it was tuned at race pace they have a low scoring dyno, the owner at race pace said the high 170s rwkw it pulled is very very good for the car and the mods i have he said that most get low 170s with those mods, but im gonig to go to a more generally scoring dyno and see, my guess would be somewhere in the 190s

which reminds me i gotta ask leewah his thoughts on the difference in figures of race pace to other places as when i havd the safc etc i got 182rwkw on 10psi and now i have the powerfc and 10.5-11 psi so it has gotta be more, and the fact its been tuned by a much better tuning shop (ice)

/me walks away to PM leewah

I will be cruising up to brisbane next week, leaving tuesday will be there approx friday after a coupla stop offs in albury/sydney/coffs...

only in bris for a few days though then back down to melb.

Rain only pisses me off when A. I get wet even with a coat and umbrella on the way to work this morning - bottom of my trousers are still damp and B. When I want to drive my car.

Other than that I dont mind the rain - it can be relaxing :D

    • I've been reading a lot lately about unsprung weight and how beneficial it can be to reduce it for driving on the track, given my semi's only have another day or two in them I am throwing around the idea of some lighter wheels and a square set up. I have 265/35/19's and 245/40(?)/19 Federal 595's at the moment. The wheels and tyres are super heavy. I looked up my wheel weight online and got 14.5kg naked. Not sure if this was 8.5 (front) or 9 (rear) but that's a lot. I have also been reading about the benefits of a square setup. Much better rotation and potentially less understeer.  When I throw these together I'm thinking about a 17x9 or 18x9 square (preferably under 10kgs per wheel) with 245 or 255's. I can get some cheap 17x8.5 BMW M Sport wheels, they weight 10.5 kg's each but at 8.5 wide could probably only get 245's on them? I know they come with 255's from factory but semi's are a bit chunkier. Otherwise it will be aftermarket wheels in a 9" width. Most of the other BMW wheels are heavy unless you pay a squillion dollars for some M wheels.  Although, the E46 M3 Style 67's could be good but I'd have to buy 2 sets to square them up.  My car has a tickle over 400hp and about to put an LSD in also, is 245 a little thin for a square setup? It kinda feels that way to me. Also, is there any tangible benefit to having 18's over 17's? Is the footprint demonstrably bigger? From those of you who went to light(er) wheels after heavy buggers, did you notice it much?
    • Start with the R32 GTR wiring diagram. The ECU is essentially the same, so the pinouts are good. The details around ECCS relays, etc might differ a little bit, but the reality is that you need to get ignition power to kick the ECU so it powers up the ECCS relay which brings the rest of the ECU up. This also gives power to the other circuits that are needed to make the engine run, like the ignition coils, etc. All of this is visible on the R32 diagram and should give you a strong guide, even if it's not quite the same as the R33. As to specifics - I'm pretty sure no-one can help you from afar, as there is no way to know what mistake or omission has been made in connecting stuff up. It always turns out to be "LOL, I shorted something and an entire wire vanished out of the loom", or "We never connected X or Y main connector", or "shit, you mean I need to have that fuse installed?".
    • hello wanted some insight on what my problem could be so i swapped a RB26DETT into my r33 gtst used a R33 GTR engine harness and im using a haltech platinum pro. The car cranks but no start the ecu isn’t getting any power now im trying to find out why i cant seem to find any schematics  or diagram for the engine harness for the r33 gtr anything helps thank you.
    • hahahaa @GTSBoy that is my last resort. Like use a cardboard and cut it using the indicator as a reference. But I was winging my luck to see anyone had a spare bumper because drawing the outline off the hole is always easier and less chance of mucking it up
    • Admittedly in that screenshot its doing about 13psi but later on in the log theres definitely spikes to 16. What is missing though is the massive peak, then a big drop and then a recovery. While it does go a little higher than I would like on base pressure, I think it's reasonably safe to assume that boost control via the mac valve should be a lot easier to control from here on out. I wasn't game to hook up the mac valve today as it's very wet and it's on the verge of fighting traction as it is.
