Two problems with that idea ... I was on foot and I wasn't in a 33 4 door, I may have had a chance with one of those beasts! :rolleyes:

haha yea that whole being on foot part would be a problem ! I don't know about you but every chick I know loves the 2 doors :)

now I think about that its probably because I own a 2 door, and their all like yea lets make him feel good ;) and the age my mates are their thinking about looks, not practicality, its very hard to take 3-4 people in a coupe, id love to see 5 in mine! might end up with the stanced look :P

Mate you need to get advice from Rob about the 4 handles ... oops, door thing, amazing stuff about his 'Line and a young lady and I believe the word 'moistened' was used. Almost made me go out and get a couple more doors and head straight to Woolies!! .... you will need to have an ale and a chat with Rob mate. :rolleyes:

(BTW thanks for the compliment Andrew -- :thumbsup: )

haha I went the woollies when I self his place yesterday :) she wasn't there :( hahah

I think its the fact that his 33 changes colours :(

"I think its the fact that his 33 changes colours"

Yeah ... mate who can compete with that, she wouldn't even give a 35 a second glance once that 33 beast landed .. :wacko:

Anywooop .. we should get back to spotting in this here thread ... spotted, spotted, spotted :wave:

Yep sounds like my signature these days stem seals are gonesky. Thought it was running rich but my tuner verified it would be black smoke not blueish white smoke seems to happen on decel and start up so definitely sounds like a stem seal.

Expensive or easy fix?

Not Excatly easy gotta remove a number of things to get to them. Can do it one day. cylinder head off job. Or cheap out and use a compressor to shut the valves.Not sure if you can reuse the blue gates timing belts again. Less than 20000kms since last change but I probably buy another. So it's just the valve seals,cam seals and timing belt.

That doesn't sound too bad.... we saw it and just thought "uh oh, that doesn't look good!!!"

We were at the car wash near the roundabout and it looked like a guy parked on the side of the road was even trying to say something to you when you were stuck in traffic near us.

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
