dont get it :S

yeah... definately right about that...

not worth the risk, just putting it out there... i've noticed they've put some speed cameras up on EAST link, under a little bridge right near WELLINGTON road both inbound and outbound... sneaky...

Parking tickets are terrible too... copped a $117 fine on the weekend at 11pm... dont park in loading zones... hahaha

i sometimes find myself creeping of the speed limit. these damn stagea's are just so smooth, dont even notice :)

Know the feeling m8!!!!

& yeah it's a gamble to get one(radar dect) ,& where u r located personally NO,NO,NO, but thats my opinion,get a speed alert fitted instead maybe,& get to the track on a regular basis, it helps.

I miss the "protection"...that thing was seriously good

I was looking at one on ebay... $140

seems like a good investment... until you get caught + the $3000... that would hurt the hip pocket... i wonder if they would cancel your licence..

This is a pretty sensitive topic so I cant say much, but basically my recommendation is if you dont know what your doing dont get one. Me an my cousin have both been using RD's for awhile now, first time using one in a place sooooo illegal, there are products I DO recommend but for 140 your not going to get ANYTHING good especially since they will be detected by the cops and you'll get raped.

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      By Hendasto · Posted

      Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.

      Are RBs worth building reliability wise

      By Hendasto · Posted

      At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!

      Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.

      https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
