Inner West Crew Whoretown (toowong/st Lucia/kenmore/indooroopilly And Sometimes Sunnybank?)


Recommended Posts

I'd be more impressed if it was one of the Tommy Kaira digital dashes. It still looks nice however.

as would I.

Does anyone know of a good/reliable auto electrician in the inner west [taringa/toowong] area?

I have a friend with a sus alternator on a 90's camry

Mangs what was the boost tee we were talking about the other week? Turbotech? Last thing on my list of sh*t to buy.

Mang, I have this one: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Turbotech-manual-turbo-boost-controller-ORIGINAL-/220798194994?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3368991532

It is good. However, this one is apparently even better: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/V2-Turbotech-manual-turbo-boost-controller-here-/220776081852?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item336747a9bc

Next time I need a tune for any reason I'll probably upgrade.

Hey minges.

I've had both the Turbotech and Turbotech V2. The V2 is no different in it's function. It looks different but it's noth worth the extra money. There was no difference in the way it controls boost.

Col There is a better more stealthy way of controlling boost. I'll talk you through it tonight. It's easy, Cheap (ie. Free) and very stable.

This is relevant to my interests.

We shall talk this evening. Col, does your car still run the factory boost controller?

On another note, The Stagea is exhaustimafied. Stock dump, China front pipe, Fujitsubo cat back exhaust. The Cat back is to suit an N/A so it was shorter in length than the stock one and the flange was wrong. Busted out the TIG and went to town on my new Catco highflow. Lenghtened it by 120mm.

All is well.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
