Spotted/followed dj hatton (unless there another blue one) in QBN on friday night.... i mean saturday morning.

Of all times and places for two cars to end up following each other hey? Where you dropping off friends? I was.

i can't remember what i was doing on friday night/saturday morning. all i know is that i was far from being in a fit state to drive so it might've been someone else! :D

Spotted without doubt in my mind the ugliest 200sx i have ever seen and if not one of the worst Nissans I have seen :P

nsw number plates allryz its a pink/red one with airbrushing all over it, all the bits where mesh would go is like some checker plate type metal and twin 3.5 or 4 inch tips.

its such a shame that so many people don't have any taste when it comes to modifying their cars. no doubt people will have seen the s2000's getting round on mahooosive chromies and the huge numbers of cars with nothing but bling. i just don't understand how these cars are attractive!!!???!!!

spotted mick's sti (i think) in woden the other night.

Each to there own! Some people may consider JDM "distasteful". Personally i am a fan of both. (Well I prefer bling on cars that have the balls to back it up). I will drool over yours or Jayces car all day long but then i can see another GTR32 with 20's and an a/m kit that looks equally as drool worthy!

Dont hate the player, hate the game.

i agree to a certain extent. i'm a big fan of tasteful bling. like erica's gt! its got spinners and a monster kit and just reeks of bling, but its the coolest forrester ever! there is a line however, and a lot of people have cars way to far over it imo.

and youssef's car, imo is pretty tasteless but has the grunt to back it all up. i don't like the paint, wheels or interior, but its quick and therefor i respect it! each to their own!

Funny. It sounds like an accurate description of the queen st pink 200sx with ACT plates [4DBABES]. Of whom i know the owner. NSW plates doesnt make sense though... Did it have guages on the bonnet (chrome)? And big chromies?

na definatly wasent 4dbabes this one was a fair bit different to that one and i knew my comments would probably stir some people up and hey its just my opinion but i just think it did not look very nice.

He gave it a quick hit when he was next to me and managed to slip the rear wheels for second but it was from a stop so i dont know if it actually had any power as anyone can do that. i should have gotten a photo and they were NSW plates ALLRYZ.

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
