My new baby is booked in a week today, I dont think I'll need to post yet another good review as they all speak for themself's but I guess another can only add to the reputation of this fine gentleman.

Speaking to him on the phone he explained a lot of things to me (as a beginner "car enthusiast" I dont always understand what is actually under the bonnet of my '93 R33 GT-S25t) and he was quite polite and understanding, even suggesting a parts shop and other things.

NismoGirl is he located on the northern or southern end of Gibbs St?

southern end.

i know i know - im not nismo girl but hey.

That's ok Ill forgive you this time! :wassup:

No the whole point was so that I could post this pic showing where he is and the surrounding area.

That way people can either decide to go to the shopping centre or take a book, it looks like there are several parks nearby or go for an extended walk to the beach.

Also it helps people find him.

My baby is going to be dropped off at 8:30am on the 30th and it is the one in my avatar, less the 4w smoke as it is only a GT-S25t but looks cool in my avatar.

But it is black, so I usually have to have the aircon running for it to be a bearable tempature in the cabin after it has been sitting in the sun for like 10 seconds :P

If you want to see up close and personal pics then I got some here:

http://203.219.212.62/R33/

BUT they are not small, pretty huge actually, but because I have broadband it does not really worry me, but if you are on dial-up I would not suggest looking at them as they are just of a stock '93 R33, nothing special, except it's mine :D

oops yeah my bad edited the post :)

Yeah I took the car to RACQ to get inspected as it was a private sale and RACQ found cracks running into the back mags, which were ugly BBS aluminium so I picked out a cheap new set and hey presto!

well picked the car up this afteernoon. all i can say atm IS O M G !!!!

the whole place is just great, very helpful.

the gtr is now FLYING !! it hoots. doing a powerrun dyno and new plugs next week :>

Hey, do you work around Coopers Plain

i saw a white GTR looks like yours several times when i finish work

pretty nice R33 GTR

Hey guys I work at the Northern end of the Gold Coast does that count?

Not that I want to change my signature anyways (the new V-Bulletin upgrade won't allow a sig as long as mine anymore) just thought I would ask though ;)

More than welcome //exus9... 6 members and counting. ;)

Yeah, new V-Bulletin software thought it would be funny to play havoc with my sig this arvo too... I want to change my avatar as well but I'm a bit wary ATM.

Back on topic though, Gavin is the man! Did my timing belt, drive belts, tensioner, idler and water pump about 3 months ago. I'm a harsh critic and I honestly couldn't fault the workmanship...

    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
