I think Mcains arms are like that from a war injury, i had noticed it too thnkin the ol fella was startin to seize up or something, but then there was a doco on the two candidates and they showed images of a young Mcain on a medics bed with both arms plastered up at that angle.

I think that Obama will be a great peoples president, but only time will tell how he goes in relation to foreign policy.

Its sad that everyone is already talking assination on the sole basis that he is African American, its 2008 FFS!

Yeah, but we are talking about the "great" US....

I mean seriously, there were people saying that they don't trust him and that he will only look after his "own people".

When the reporter asked who his "own people" are, the ignorant b*tches said "terrorists" because Obama sounds like Osama... wow.

Also, I think that McCains issue is with his shoulders. While his arms are odd, looks to me like a rotator cuff issue (which would explain why he can't lift his hands much higher than his nose).

Hopefully America will get the change it needs!

I have a friend who lives in virginia and some cousins in new york, and they seem over the moon about Obama being elected.

Who knows maybe Bush can be the next big stand up comedian!

jeebus fellas, McCain was a POW in Vietnam for 5 years, and it wasn't exactly a stay at the hilton. He came back and could barely walk (not so noticable now) but obviously you guys have picked up on his arms. Parting gifts from the VC.

I closely followed the democratic primaries and very closely followed the presidential race. McCain is a hero, no doubt, and most likely would have been a decent president, but America and the world needed more than that. They needed someone like Obama to "inspire", to rally the country and also amend the alliances. Domestically McCain would probably have done ok, but the world is too small for that these days. America having elected someone who is so amazingly accepted worldwide can only be a huge step forward for everyone.

He was the only candidate to actual say that America has lost it's standing in the world, it has lost respect. I think that was ballsy as you could be treading a fine line even mentioning the fact that America might not actually be looked on favourably by the rest of the world, might seem somewhat un-patriotic. But he's dead right. How much do we slag off America in so many contexts? For a President to actually have a perception of how the world views America from the outside-in can only be a good thing.

If Obama can keep the fire burning, keep the energy high amongst the grassroots movement he created, I think we'll be all surprised about how quickly America can get back on track.

It's an incredibly hopeful time, and I'm very interested to see how things play out over the next 4 years.

yes and no, the 'inspirational' speeches have given him a huge mandate for his policy platform. He'll have the numbers in congress, and the favours owed to him by those who were able to ride his popularity into seats in the house of reps and senate. So in theory, he "should" be able to get a lot done, and be perceived as a 'great' leader as he will be executing the will of the people.

It takes more than some 'inspirational' speeches (which would probably be written by other people) to be a good leader...

Well then hes already a head of bush who was so mentally retarded he couldnt even read his...

Its nice to see someone who can actually carry themselves in a conversation and or public questioning (if you watched any) without looking like a tard, stumbling, making stupid noises and making up words. Thats generally a good start to being one.

      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?

      R34 N/a And R34 Turbo (gtt) Transmission.. Uh, Problem.

      @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?

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.
