i have the cruise notes from a club cruise we did last year. started at the 24 hr maccas in springy/wellington rd cnr and ended somewhere om white horse rd. good run. AP should know wat i was on about. he was there

Hehehe - thats my cruise :D

Hey just checking if cruise is still on wanna make sure im coming from geelong and its my first one. Also can you confrim exact meeting point address. Is it just for skylines or are all cars welcome cause ive got few mates with s15s. Thanks :)

meeting at rooftop of doncaster shopping town. route i dunno but im sure we can figure it out

* Freeway to Ferntree Gully Rd (Bout the same but avoids knox tmu)

Your kidding yourself, Knox tmu are not just at KNOX itself...

Ferntree gully rd is regularly patrolled by a good friend of all of ours from the knox tmu.

especially at the base of the mountain around the pool room and ferntree gully hotel.

You have posted meet points and the route you will be taking...

so don't be surprised if they intercept you somewhere along the way.

From my experience in planning cruises, shopping center car parks are a bad idea.

Especially on a saturday night.

Tours.

ive just discovered this thread, (im a bit slow)

sounds like there is fun to be had. put me down as a maybe for now, gotta check that there is nothing else planed for me...

it would be nice to get the gtr out, as i only picked it up last week!

Basti - only in your dreams :)

And all I meant tours is that i avoids that piece of road in between Knox Police Station and Knox City which is probably the main part we would all want to avoid.

In the end its the organisers decision. I was just posting some options up as he was asking for suggestions.

Looking at Maps a bit more there is another route which isnt too complicated.

* Station St to Canterbury Rd (Left)

* Canterbury can be follow all the way there where we can turn right to get directly onto Mt Dandenong Rd.

OR

* From Canterbury Rd you can turn Right onto Dorset Rd.

* From Dorset Rd you can turn Left onto Burwood Hwy then take the Mt Dandenong Tourist Rd to the top.

Depending on which Rd you want to take up.

** Mt Dandenong Rd **

- Narrow Rd

- Very little lighting

- No guardrails

- Twisties

** Mt Dandenong Tourist Rd **

- Wider Rd

- Good Lighting

- More Traffic

- Some guardrails

- Not so twistie

So plan your route. We could go up one and down the other. Either way. Personally I dont like Mt Dandenong Rd due to a bad experience in the past, but either way. Organisers choice.

    • 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.
