was anyone else contemplating suicide from the telecast....

god the team they have drives me insane i want to watch motorsport not larko, crompton, skaife have personal jokes. That idiot from sunrise talking about god knows what about the taxis, even throughout the support races..

Go race and strategy by brighty to make up the lap and get close to the top 10

Murph's argy-bargy passing move was more than a bit, er, marginal. V8 stockcars must be employing F1 race stewards...

Thought there were a few marginal passes.. Tander on Kelly was a bit rough

I reckon the category is the problem not the telecast. the racing is just rubbish and spreading it over 8 hours makes it worse.

But hey, its the biggest race of the year in aus....and I don't mind spending all day in front of the tv drinking beer :D all and the rookies each year guarantee some crashes.

You mean the shit that Clowndes has been getting away with for years. Good to see the shoe on the other foot for a change. :D

the advertising to content ratio was woeful as usual- "here's 90 seconds of pacecar, now for 5 minutes of the same fkn ads you're already sick of seeing"...

i thought the shot of the back of the front brake rotor was a pretty interesting camera angle though. nice to watch the sparks fly at the end of conrod

didn't watch enough of the broadcast to catch all of the no doubt numerous dodgy moments, but Murph def should have got a drive through for that effort, really

Days Of Thunder spec- "racin' is rubbin', son..." lol

it's one thing to have an advantage into the braking zone, it's another to come steaming in too shallow and too hot and just jam your nose into the other dudes rear quarter

not that i really care for the team affected (or any of 'em really), but it's the principle of the matter, y'see...

lol good race at the start and end, coverage was shithouse due to not being in high def here and the unending effing ads!!! Pace car came out too often as well, talk about making it BORING when its restart after restart! Felt bad for tricky ricky Kelly, was hoping the boys were gonna hold off til the end, apart from that bloody pace car making em all bunch up again!

Clowndes deserved a punch in the face from the other driver for that pit lane thing, couldn't believe he didnt get penalised for some of his other shenanigans either.

True, the officials wrecked the start of the race when they put the safety car out for the first corner incident. FFS, they had two minutes to get the spun car out of the way! Totally took away from the usual first few laps of argie bargie.

and yes, the damned ads, bloody repetative and way too long! Ridiculous.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.

      Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.

      Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
