OK thread renamed since it's taken on a life of it's own!

big thumbs up for CH10 with the new channel, they are showing heaps of interesting motorsport instead of the usual taxi procession.

I watch some DTM from hockenheim yesterday (much better racing than the local rubbish, although it was only a 20 car grid)

Anyway.....nascar is on atm. yes they only turn left, but if drag racing and drifting can be motorsport, so can this :( today is the "Milwaukee Mile"

I paid $70 for a bloke to come out yesterday and fix my reception problems just so I can watch OneHD. Turns out I need a better aerial at $340 grr. The sooner OneHD is available on Foxtel the better!

yeah i needed one too. at least it is half the cost of installing foxtel, and no monthly fees. I can't wait until foxtel goes broke and the few good shows on there come back to free to air.

damn all you lucky buggers with 1 HD already...ive still gotta wait

no SD either where you are? All aus transmittere will upgrade in the next year or 2. I've had digital for bloody years but until this year the only difference was the better reception. Now there's a whole heap of new channels from the existing broadcasters so there's heaps better options

ken oath. I get up too early to stay up until 1.30 on school nights. I can deal with 11pm tho :(

We have OneHD on Foxtel via cable

One of these for $149 does a great job on FTA digital HD.

I've already got Foxtel installed on the basic package with IQ1 which is the best thing since sliced bread but I can't get OneHD on the IQ2 box (not in my area or something which is weird because I thought the idea of satellite was that 'area' became obsolete).

It would have been cheaper for me to pay an extra $10/mth for IQ2 giving me access to OneHD than it would be to spend $340 on getting a new antenna installed.

BTW if anyone needs a settop box I've got an HD one for sale, $100, works fine.

I just picked up a hdd recorder that had a built in tuner so I don't need the old tuner any more

daytona 400 this morning. some of the historical footage is classic (door to door racing on a beach anyone???)

Not to mention what's now destined to be one of the funniest race finishes ever!

      $5 Clock upgrade for R32 GTR

      By ToothDR32 · Posted

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
