spotted on monday evening a black R33 behind me driving my dads statesman, just b4 the turn onto the yellow tunnel on the parkway heading tuggers bound. stayed behing us for a bit then gave it a blast passed me just after the tunnel.  

hmmm could have been me but i am lost what tunnel ??? :) the one under anu if so yea that may have been me :D

yeah well i have nearly 3weeks to get her back on the road, so all should be good, i hope?

the most likely case is that ive just fu**ed the battery and a few wires. theres a good chance the alternator may be good, and a slim chance ive scrambled the ECU.

it was my own stupid fault for crossing jumpers. but its just been a nightmare lately but when it rains it poors right?

i called my mate Dave (head mech at f&f imports) and had a chat about what might be wrong, if it is the ECU im gonna replace it with a power fc or microtech.

its weird my car is getting faster and more powerfull, not by choice but because shit keeps breaking and im getting more powerfull parts to fix it lol!!!

its out at Everlast now and hopefully i'll hear something tomorrow. and the damage wont be to severe, but i did enough to fill the entire car with smoke.

im not sure what they plan to do about the damage, but its bad enough to need a respray but at least the fibreglass should be able to be repaired easily enough, i might talk to Jerry out at JRacing about it and c what he thinks.

in all fairness to them they were very helpfull and friendly(both the drivers and the office) but i just hope it all works out!!!

oh, just over it eh? gonna go buy a skateboard instead i think. :)

haha, fair enough, i wound down the window to give you a wave, then realised i wasnt driving my car, so i didnt bother lol.

i kept forgetting i was driving an automatic, so i was constantly trying to change down gears and kept using the footrest as a clutch by accident.

lol yea not trying to be tight but i think if someone waved to me from a commowhore i probably wouldnt wave back :) hehe i dont have any mates who drive them... JAP ALL THE WAY BABY ;)

thats mine :D was in getting work done the past few days

is yours the white one with black rims and roll cage?

naa that was the one i saw driving past. mines got a veilside kit on and stock wheels. i have had the car 2 years and no one has spotted me yet! dont forget i have the lighted skyline word at the back.

    • 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
