Hello guys

Just wanna make up a listing of all the busiest, most dangerous intersections within perth, north or south of river.

I will start with one, I hate the T junction of tonkin hiway and leach hiway. So busy and so time consuming.

List your experiences, good or bad, what people to look out for etc etc.

Mirrabooka Ave and Reid Highway is meant to be one of the dangerous ones..was driving past other day.. Lights out..crazy

Beaufort St and Walcot St in Mt Lawley, so deadly when a car infront of you is trying to turn Right at the lights..

thats all i can think off at the moment

haha, all of a sudden hes a boost junkie...

Worst i can think of is wanneroo rd and neaves rd intersection... used to be bad, really bad, guaranteed a crash every couple of days... though it is much better now the road worx have been done...

wellington st and William st with the new 2 lane.....so confusing as a driver AND a pedestrian

LOL

you KNOW it was a stupid idea when they have to employ dudes to control the traffic in and out of our car park every morning and afternoon peak hour.

Heres an obscure one - (Ash will know what I am on about) The roundabout on Armadale road and Twelfth Ave - especially when you are turning. For some reason people on Armadale road going straight through disregard anyone already ON the roundabout. I personally know 4 people that have been in accidents (2 were write off's) in the last 12 months.

I reckon Leach HWY and Orrong Rd is a pretty big shocker.

You reckon its bad now? I used to have to navigate that thing twice a day before they put the overpass in.

Nightmare.

Anywhere along Guildford Rd anytime (particularly in peak hour) is dangerously scary.

lol yes, especially turning off thru traffic, or dodging other ppl that are.

Illawarra cres & Alexander drive (err, the malaga side) was pretty shit before they put lights in.

hahah only if you were on illawarra wanting to turn right onto Alexander :blink: although the ballajura end was pretty bad too...haven't been down there in yonks though.

Willmott drive and Read street in rockingham...shocker trying to turn right onto read street...heaps of accidents there.

Patterson road and thomas road in Kwinana... coming down thomas to turn left onto patterson... hmm use to be a big sweeping bend with a merge lane but they changed it to a give way.. grrr

all streets in lockridge, dodgy aboriginals throwing bottles and goon bags....

hahhahha its happened plenty of times!

Or, if in Freo, empty CD cases. As my mate found out lol. He just idled past them and made them shit haha.

Has anyone done burn outs on the new speed humps in north perth, LOL ehhee

Mirrabooka Ave and Reid Highway is shocking!!!

I've driven past it about 3 times when the lights weren't working,

Doesn't help that I have a semi-phobia of intersections.

Tonkin & Leach.. horrible.

Illawarra and Alexander drive I hearly had an accident at before the lights were installed.

Didn't have proper insurance either

(Just got my p's and still registered as an L plater insurancewise xD)

Waited there for about 20 mins 2 weeks ago wanting to turn left onto Alexander from Illawarra.

Damn lights are frustrating.

Oh, this isnt really an intersection..

Gnangara road is horrible.

Tried to turn onto a side road once (had to cross the other lane)

Traffic wouldn't stop and was stuck for ages.

    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks  
    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
