Stones throw away at eastern heights mate. we should hook up some time.

Ah yeah, wouldn't be suprised if I've seen you around. I seem to see a fair few driving around but never see any parked anywhere. :glare: Its like they go into hiding...

Is that jealousy Dan? You know you want to live in the switch.... So close to QR you can hear the top fuelers and all. And only drive 15mins to get to the track.

Just no meet spots like harry's or bnr :(

Yeah it does suck how some people just can't respect other peoples stuff. And the cops for been asses sometimes. Not all but some.

You still going to the bnr meet dan?

noel it's not that bad, atleast i don't have to drive that bloody ipswich motorway everyday to get to work. I'm upgrading vehicle soon for transport, will make traffic easier.

I'm living 5 minutes from lakeside now. Don't need to be close to QR :cheers:

Ha ha touche, touche.

And who doesn't like parking on the ipswich motorway?

The hour of the day I drive the motorway i have it to myself. As soon as I get off the western freeway at toowong the bullshit begins. How can A whole half of brisbane have such a farked up traffic system. So many single lane roads carrying major traffic winding through built up areas. Its a bloody travesty!

Try the sunshine motorway coming in to brisbane every friggin morning, It makes the ippy m/way look like a bloody race track.

I'm wondering if I should stick L plates on my skyline and teach my mate to drive manual in it...

wish i got to learn in a skyline :( lol

Are you allowed to drive a turb on p plates. ?

He's had his opens for a few months already, which Is why i'm considering it. I know that you don't need to get a special licence to learn manual, you just do it on your Auto and whack L plates on, so i don't think there'd be any power restrictions. (of course there's so little info on the power restrictions themselves, something as obscure as this doens't even warrent a mention that i've seen.)

Noel I'm noticing every post of yours is -11. I gave a +1 to all of those to try and help but I'm just one guy...

    • 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.
