Crazy man! your near Mowbray. Probs walk straight past mine as well. Gunmetal R32 gtr on or there abouts and towards Station.

never noticed but honestly with the amount of attention i pay when I'm walking to the station i've probably past it every day :D

Drove past a white R33, sticker bombed front bar and orange wheels tonight on the Grand Parade near Brighton.. I'll assume it was Joel.....

lol unfortunately it was, not to many dickheads with orange wheels rolling around :P, went out for a coffee with the ms's and a few friends, was it parked up or was i driving? wasn't paying to much attention :(

haha nah i think it looks good! you were turning right at a set of lights going away from brighton when i drove past going the other way thumbsup.gif

Just saw a white R34 GTT with black wheels and Nismo sticker across the top part of the windshield outside Supercheap Auto in Mittagong. I was the guy with the blue jeans and hoody who came out of Supercheap and then went into Dick Smiths just so I could see who you are. :nyaanyaa: Car looks really clean too. :thumbsup: I was driving off in the red Hyundai Excel, I would've waved but I wasn't in my 34 and it would've looked retarded, lol. If you're on the forums, we should go for a cruise or something; seen you quite a few times.

And I also saw a white R33 with racing stickers on the front left quarter panel in the same parking.

Cruised with a 32r along penno road and castle hill rd for a bit last night, plates were rb-26-?? or something along those lines...sounded nice,

also saw a dark grey/black 4 door 32 with uber flared gaurds on Brisbane rd in castle hill gave a wave, nice wheels. thumbsup.gif

I see this guy quite a bit. And there is a White R32 GTS-T/4 (didn't get a good look) in the Highlands too.

Yeah, I've seen that white R32 quite a few times actually. Saw him just the other day as a matter of fact, haha.

spotted a white r33 series two with a female blonde driver along pennant hills rd at like half past three i was in the blue s15 in front of you.... and then when getting petrol a white r34 gtt heading towards parramatta on pennant hills rd similar time.

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion 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. But nothing 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. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
