HI all my fellow brothers and sisters in SEQ.

Having just seen the carnage that is happening with the weather, I on behalf of my fellow northern brethren wish you all the best and hope that everyone is all ok. We understand the pain. We have cyclones.......

Cheers

Joe

Haha, cheers Joe. We just got smashed again for the 3rd time, since sunday, tonight. But it wasn't as bad as the last two...for me at least. Just as i typed that, fat and plentiful rain just started again...maybe i spoke to soon.

as someone who drives around all day for work ive had the biggest troubles and traffic jams in the last 4 days its just not funny the amount of rubbish on the roads and water everywhere you look...

creeks are over flowing everywhere, the rain was so intence on sunday it filled my empty 10,000 litre water tank in less than 60 minutes (through one down pipe)...

we only got power back on monday, wasted so much food etc...

i've never seen it this bad and ive lived on the northside my entire life...

i went for a ride out to northpine dam this afternoon (5 minutres from home) and the in flows are raging torrents, the dam is starting to fill nicely. They said she is at 43% on the new tonight, and it has not been full since like 2001/2002 so its a long time coming...

I live in North Lakes and we actually were barely effected by the storm at all. Yeah we got lots of rain but our house didn't flood or anything. We kept out power too. The front of North Lakes got a decent amount of hail but not the back (which is where i live).

oh ok, I'm up towards the front and I don't think we got any hail, we must have been lucky then. We were crapping ourselves, we have 3 cars and only a 2-car garage, the third had to be reversed up near the front door. We threw some blankets over the bonnet and used some old tyres to hold them down lol

My skyline only got a little damage but it wasn't from the storms it was from the insane wind we had on Saturday. Lifted my car cover up (metal frame with canvas top) and dumped it half in my yard and half in the neighbours. I got most of the marks off the paint (front quarter, door and rear quarter all on the passengers side) so its time to find a decent detailer who will cut and polish to try and get the rest of the marks out.

    • Pinout is different to my knowledge, but you should confirm to be sure. Also you will need to adjust the VQ table in Nistune to suit. I would still recommend sticking with recirculating BOVs, I'm not sure if the R35 card MAF will fully resolve stalling caused by reversion/throttle lift.
    • What issues are those? Previous owner said it wants to stall sometimes. We did test drive and it was nice and smooth so it will be sporadic or idk. And if i just change MAF(the sensor to R35 version) it should be better? And as i asked...is it like "plug n play" with oem MAF from R34?  This is a MAF from R35 right?
    • Even with no BOV you will have issues unless the MAF is a hot film type like the R35 which has some design features to deal with reversion. Hot wire MAFs are very sensitive.
    • So i just change the (whatever is inside ma original MAF and slide the R34 MAF (it is gonna fit right in? ) and somewhere on the hot side a BoV...i presume that would be vented to the atmo? I just "trying" to understand...maybe my mechanic would know this   I would not mind(even prefer) to run stock BoV cuz it is way more than fine but i do not have that and only pipeing what is left is oem J pipe ... I will be running Blitz fmic(to fit oem one side style) and i gonna need custom pipes cuz i do not have rest of those pipes and hoses... But i am want standalone ECU. Only choice i have atm is Nistune...but that is not gonna cut it right?I dont know what Nistune can and cant do... I know you guys know Link and Haltech...but whatabout ECUmaster? I know guys in here run those but i literally do not know about that and do not know differences... Just know to take whatever "my" tuner can work on.  
    • Is that the blue one rpm?
