hello

so yea havent been down chapel st in over a year mainly coz of being defected everytime i drove anywhere near it and was just wondering is it still as bad these days?

is the cop attention still as tough or has it died down? or is it even worse? if i was to go there on a friday/saturday night would i see any imports/modded cars at all like in the olden days or is everyone playing it safe and taking their mum's shitbox?

just curious is all...

thanks

on my occasional retail shop down Chapelle i still see A LOT of hero's... WRX's seem to feature heavily, or maybe it's just the distinctive boxer rumble... either way, over the years, it's always seems to have plentiful supple of retards

I go down there some times. Lots of Commodores and occasionally a few imports.

Safeway car park is full of idiots ripping burnouts.

Not too many people around in Winter because it's too cold.

It will pick up in summer and you'll start seeing people showing off their cars, especially convertibles etc.

yeah you still get the muzzas rolling through Chapel St. but it's not as much....Definitely in summer it will definitely pick up and cops will be out in force again.

I still find it funny the amount of heroes doing silly crap down Chapel knowing cops are around and me laughing at eastside kiddies on their P's driving mummy/daddys Merc S Class trying to be cool. The last time I was in Capel for dinner with mates, I saw a P1 driver (Red P's) driving mummy or daddys Merc AMG SL55 with his friends...

Last time I went down there, about a year ago, very quiet, lots of cops, 4 cops on each side of the street patrolling.

Clubs were quiet, and the streets were quiet due to the police presence. Its not the same as it used to be...

      Good to know, I feel like I am in for a rollercoaster ride that looks like a sine wave.

      Yet another RB Neo misfiring thread after reading all the others.

      By uchoa · Posted

      Hey folks. I've been lurking and browsing the forum for a while, since I got into my head that I wanted a skyline. Having purchased an overpriced completely stock GTT, (only "mods" it has is HKS pod filter and catback) now that it became legal in the US, it was all glorious and sututu noises here and there. But then I wanted to do things right and went to do basic maintenance. After all the fluids, filters done, I did the spark plugs, that's when the problems started.. First the car started spluttering at around 4.5k RPM. Which I gapped down the new plugs and that solved the sputter there, but the car now always misfires at idle with pops when lifting off and shifting 2nd to 3rd. Similar to the issues in this recent thread. I've been banging my head against the wall, reading the threads here and trying suggestions for a couple months now, so decided to start this one to explain exactly what I tried and what is going on. The symptoms of the issue: Idle and low revs misfiring intermittently. You can hear the exhaust tone change and the shakes on the shifter knob. It happens frequently, but doesn't seem to have a rhythm to it. Pops when backing off throttle. It pops and or burbles almost feels like it spits fire when it pops. (Happens mostly in 3rd gear at around 2k RPM). When under load and after 6k RPM, it also pops when shifting from 2nd to 3rd. There's a ticking noise at around 2k RPM in 2nd gear going downhill, seems unrelated though but I am out of educated and downright dumb guesses. Not noticeable lack of power when putting the car into load. The attempted diagnosis and solutions: Unplugging coils when the car is running This did nothing to change the idling and tone shift for every cylinder. Checking the exhaust headers with thermometer They all are within what I'd say it is margin of error of the laser thermometer New spark plugs Tossed two new sets, copper, iridium and using the old ones, still misfiring, even re gapped to 0.8mm, still same thing. MAF cleaned with the "specific" spray cleaner No changes in the issues what so ever. Brand new loom and r35 coil conversion (was going to add the r35 coils anyway) car runs arguably better, still misfires, but seems like does less frequently. Placebo? Code 21 now being thrown, thanks nissan gods. Removed the CAS to check the shaft for play or anything. CAS seems all fine, nothing that indicates any issue, visually speaking. Things to attempted next: Ordered a new MAF (chinesium from Amazon, to be able to return regardless of result). Fuel with proper gas, maybe it is this California water that they sell as gas that is to blame? Plugin the link ECU and check the info using the built in base map. Go back to BMW and eat my rob bearing breakfast without milky oil mixture.   Do any of you have experienced anything like this or have any suggestion?

      Hello! I had a mid life crisis on a budget and coincided with the R34s being legal in the USA. And now I am here, with it having old car problems and me slowly hoarding parts to start building it to what I envision. Essentially I made a mistake, that lead me to join this forum filled with legends.
