Proved my point for me :sick:

So I'm sitting at home waiting for the Telstra people to come and install a line so that we can get TPG. Optus changed all their internet plans and they're absolute shit.

They said they'll be here between 10 and 2... but I'm tired, and slept like crap last night and really want a shower to help wake me up, but I can't, because I know as soon as I get in there they'll turn up and I won't hear them and they'll leave.

*sigh*

I hope they hurry up...

i bet they'll be tehre at like 1:45

hate shit like that - when they give you this window of like 4-6hours n you're like omg i have shit to doooooooo

Well... he's here... but not filling me with confidence... He calls the phone saying there's no one home. I open the door and there's no one there. Turns out he's in the unit complex next door...

:sick:

You do shift work ?

No, but I start early, and if I have done enough hours for the week (which I have) I can leave early on fridays :)

LOL

It wasn't a black one by chance? With what seemed to be carbon fibre everything, and black (maybe nismo) 5/6 spoke wheels?

Yes. MIR34's the plate.

Anyone keen for lunch????

aaaannnd the Telstra guy just killed my Optus internet connection. Wicked.

If he is changing your phone line from optus to telstra, you should have expected that...

Alljap at Virginia for the indicator

Definitely lowball those mofos. Overpriced bastards...

3 hours to go. Kiwis installing 30 tonne props in the basement can't read a drawing. 750mm away from the end of the column so they put it 750mm away from the reo in the column = 150mm to close to the column = pissed off kiwis when I tell em they did it wrong.

Anyone else hear about Q1 sinking? Sounds like fun.

110 for a indicator!

they're like 40 on the forums man... i think i just saw one before

DOOOONT BUY IT YET!

ps nismo boy you around?

ugh gay icant find it

i found this which might be worth a go gts4 front cut

but as i said man around $40ish is what i've seen them for - so id bargain with the wreckers, (they're used to it), or wait and find one off the forums, or "i don't bargain because it's rude" and pay$110 :D

Probably overpriced, always are. Try All State Automotive it's in delta street, ask for Nick, tell him you know Ravi with the Maroon 33... he should be able to do better for you.

Yes. MIR34's the plate.

Ahhh man that thing is hell tough. Think he had some thermal coating done yesterday, not sure on the details though. Thermal Edge Coating is across the road from where I work... my boss and I heard a loud ass RB come tearing down the street..... then the high pitched squeal of an SSQV... *drool* so we ran out to see it pull in the shop.

I regret selling my SSQ now.

Anyway... yeah, that 34 GTR is off tits!

    • 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?
    • @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?
    • 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.
