Spotted:me being a :tool: of amateur proportions...

Couldn't work out all yesterday why the ride was only running .5 bar of boost.Though to myself:"meh;it's hot-the Power FC's just looking after my engine's best interests...it'll be all good when it's cooler".Then she wouldn't come to the party this eve' going to get fuel(SHOCK!HORROR!!Jayce drives GTR twice in one week!!!)...so,methinks :idea: -stop by "our" long suffering mechanic's shop(we should call it Garage Integra,maybe?Slight J'pnese flavour,dontcha think?)and bounce the problem off knowledgable ears.Low'n'behold,Sinista and her pilot are there: :thumbsup: -enough hardened Skyline people to sort this drama...A mere 20 seconds into Ed's diagnosis and... :Oops: me=prize idiot.Boost controllers wont work when they're TURNED OFF! :rant: And I didn't even notice all the pretty lights weren't there for the last 24 hours- :( .Ed and all assembled had the decency not to :flamer: me for my most basic of ****-ups.So,much boostage was had after that.I spotted a nice R33 GTS-T,white with big chromed rims near Ed's house-waved,got a shared wave back(I can only claim 50% of the wave-she was waving to Ed,too,y'see...).Then spotted a silver R33 GTS(T?) on the bridge into Queanbo'-got a :wavey: in return of my :wavey: .Crept home most of the way-but,now I have forced atmosphere again,and the road ahead was clear of debris and Police,I just had to:the new roundabout turing into Jerra?Lanyon Drive onto Thopmsitt?Yep: :Owned: it! Ahhhh...there's nothing like a GTR doin' it's thang! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

to sum it up for those who couldnt be bothered reading Jayces thesis, in matching length only to the UN's weapons inspectors report on their findings in iraq.

his boost controller was off, he thought the power fc was playing funny games, he's an idiot, saw a few people on the way home and took a round about quickly.

there much simpler, LMAO hahahaha, quite proud of myself actually.

Oh yeah...Spotted:Viper_r32 going COMPLETELY the wrong way 'round Jerrabomberra's main roundabout!As he struggled to avoid not one,but two head-ons with road-rule abiding citizens,his lack of directional skill was observed by a large portion of ACT's SAU crew waiting to head from the pub for Sunday's Cotter cruise...No harm was done ro anything except Paul's pride-his face matched his shirt(red....very,very red)once he stepped out of his ride.S'funny-everyone gave P. grief about the move in a lighthearted way afterwards,but it takes only one simpleton that can't figure out electronic gadgets to post about it!!And he probably thought he'd gotten away with it not getting posted until now,LOL!Ah,it's all in good fun,Viper_r32!Bet you never do it again - at least not with such a sympathetic audience in attendance!!

Oops: me=prize idiot.Boost controllers wont work when they're TURNED OFF! :D And I didn't even notice all the pretty lights weren't there for the last 24 hours- :) .

Jayce;

Incredible. I have never done anything like that. Not since probably last week some time anyway...

Maybe this problem is not isolated and in future we'll see a sticky on the Forced Induction Perf thread:

HELP PLEASE

Car won't move in any direction unless I'm on a hill...possible clutch/gbox issue? Has been an annoying and persistent problem for some time now. A mate went to Ed at Integra who suggested starting the engine and it went away after he tried that and my mate could control both the speed and direction of his car.

At least if your stereo stops working you'll know where to look.

Just disappointed you did such a good job of flaming yourself and left nothing for us...

Hey Scooby - Nice post - TWICE!!!!!! LMAO

 

Never done anything silly - yeah right!

OK make that 'nothing silly since 1.23 today'

Anyway my dear fellow, I have no idea what you are referring to. I count one post only and I do not believe that there are witnesses to the contrary.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
