Another awesome DECA!

Cheers to all organisers and volunteers, turned out to be a fantastic day and great weather too! Was good to meet some new people and see everyone giving it a good shot!

Ive got tonnes of video footage, what/wheres the quickest/easiest way to upload?

..and only 12 weeks till the next DECA, thats crazy!

Ive got tonnes of video footage, what/wheres the quickest/easiest way to upload?

use vimeo, way better quality than youtube.

http://www.vimeo.com

and if you are using a mini-dv camera, check out this tutorial on using free software called handbrake to compress them for uploading/vimeo/etc. quality comes out great.

pm me if you need a hand

haha so many people reading this thread and not much posting, me thinks that every one is just waiting for the vids,

i think there was HEAPS of vid footage this time compared to other times, thats why everyone's hanging out for it.

Well for a trip I really couldn't be arsed making it turned out to be an awesome weekend! Big thumbs up to the guys for making the trip down from NSW - you guys were great. Soooo many stories I could tell but as Al said what happened is Shep stays in Shep. Dee and I took lots of pics so I'll get them up tonight, there is sure to be some good one plus a video of the huge brawl at the Ausssie :) Big thanks to Stavros and Percival for the entertainment also!

Some of my highlights include -

The double tower of heart attack power burger that Adrian and I made for our lunches - Ash you're out of a job

The ride in Steve’s FAST GTR and drive in Al’s FAST GTSt – some seriously awesome cars

Funnels, funnels and more funnels

Sarah + Margarita= funny! :)

Honorary Brisby - my replacement drinking partner till the real Troy is back

“How good to I look after having a baby 5 weeks ago – pretty good huh” then being given a phone expecting to see a picture of her baby only to find her in skimpy underwear while being harassed by her mother – that was almost Wangaratta “mother/daughter threesome” the second!

Having to prevent a mother/daughter try to drag off a overly intoxicated nameless SAU member ;)

Dim Sims at 1am – mmmmm dims sims!

NOT going to the strippers and being served Scotch and Dry's with no Scotch! :)

yep, definetly hanging out waiting for vids and pics to be posted :)

well as per usual I'm slowly ripping and uploading video.

1.3 Gig uploaded so far, should be another 1.5 - 2 Gig to go

will link when they are done

the GoPro external cam seemed to work ok.

Footage was nice but sound was crap, need to work on the settings.

higher quality will be avalibe when rest of stuff uploaded but to give an idea:

HAHAHAHAH

DECA is great - thanks everyone for an awesome weekend.

LOL @

* Funnels on Friday night as soon as Adz arrived (before dinner)

* Antics around the pool

* Schmiko and all those black smirnoffs

* Gate!!!

* Shane not being able to hold a convo at dinner

* Walking into the Aussie Bar (just me, Dee and Kylie) and straight into the middle of an in-all-brawl

* Ryan pretending to be gay

* Wayne :)

* Leon - aka "Stand in Brisby"

* Sarah drinking 1/3 of a margharita and Adz finishing it

* The 2 old sleezeballs at Rawhide

* Eating food from Mobil at 3am coz someone thought it would be tastier than the hot dog van - im not sure how, but it was better

* Adrian on Sunday morning - "Why are my pants wet??"

awesome weekend - pretty much a perfect day for it. Definately a fan of the flying finish.

Thanks to everyone that made the day's events possible.

night time shenanigans lived up to the hype hehe - had a bit of everything :) oh and we had one of those hot dogs from the hot dog van (first dog off the rank too) and i reckon not much would have come close to it at that time of night!

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
