Hi guys,

I recently moved from sydney back to canberra again and noticed the large amount of skylines around.

Keen on comming along to the next gathering, but no spirited driving until I get some new tyres.

Spotted WSB ??? grey R32 GTST with large front mount on the way to work, erindale drive

also a YES ??? white R33 R33 GT25T on the parked on the same road aswell.

and anyone owning a black 4 door auto GTS working for centrelink?, it's got pink fluffy playboy seat covers.

Just spotted in braddon as i crossed the road half an hour ago a maroon R32 looked to be doing laps. mate it's thursday, you don't need to be that keen.

Haha yeah i saw that too, had a bit off a giggle to myself. I went around once when i got to civic, parked and walked around... saw this guy doing laps for the whole time i was in civic!

My mate looked at buying that car from the previous owner... i wont elaborate but the new owner got raped.

I saw the mother of all ACT rego'd GT-R, R34 Gtr, green to purple hue, number plates "RH9" Has got some guts to have that as a number plate, but by the sounds of it (and what I read in Autosalon Magazine, close to 600 AWKW on low boost!!!!!!) It should be able to back it up. Any way spotted in front of Hoyts in woden along the "woden laps strip"

Ah,yes:RH9. Pass the Kleenex,please...however,I still feel the JUN R32 takes the prize(biased,I know). Close call,tho'!

Spotted a very sexy 33 GT-R at Integra yesterday;TE-37's,set up for tarmac rallies(someone say "Tassie"?),neat as with a excellently set up engine,etc.

Saw some guy in a black/gunmetal grey stock looking 33 chopping traffic like some kind of superhero along with a VL and another car I can't remember on Hindmarsh drive last night, it would have been awesomely entertaining from my point of view if a cop or 10 was around

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
