I wasnt going to tell you all...


Recommended Posts

lol denham shes selling the soarer and might be getting a Poojet (206) :D

meshmesh - thanks for the comments on it... thats probably one of the major things that attracted me to it, the power doesnt really worry me too much... i'll keep it std until the warranty is out and then put an exhaust and a few other things on it... wouldnt mind puting this kit on it...

mini's are 4 hoochi's!! lol narkk man what are you doin????

an MR2 is girly...

weak power... no handling.

a hyundai exel is girly...

no explination needed.

a mini is a classic/nostelgic car :D

they handle extremely well... especially the cooper s with the upgraded suspension package and they go hard for their size.

my 2litre R32 stock does a similar 0-100kmh and 0-400m and this thing is a 1.6 and corners twice as well.

Have you driven one nark? Realised there is no boot space, no comfort features, and pretty ugly designed interior.. sure the 'specs' look good.. but for that sort of money youd want much more of a car thats offered.

If I were you, id go a renault clio sport... damn amazing little cars, every feature under the sun, handle better than a pug gti, and the mini.. and can be pixked up for about 30k now..

yep, front mounted fours, not the best looking car, but after you sit and drive one, the looks really dont matter.

Seriously man, drive one of those, or even the pug gti.. and you can see you'll get everything your looking for and more for 10k less.

Minis are WAY over rated.

all the car reviews on NRMA, Autospeed and the likes all say the build quality is far better than the old... even the brazilian made chrysler/bmw engine is apparently well made.

There is probably 10 other cars for 45k I would get before a Mini. I spose if you want to replace your manhood with a pillow who are we to judge :D You could get a matching Mini skirt :(:D

Seriously, December or November 2003 Motor mags had a write up on the SC Mini... probably worth a read.

i'll see what it drives like on friday... i dont want an NA... mainly cause i dont like paying 1800 for an exhaust for a 3kw gain... i want something i can get power out of easily... which a supercharged mini i can because it has plenty of aftermarket parts available.

if u guys can find me a car that fits these criteria for the same price i will gladly take a look at them:

1. it isnt a WRX (too many old people and women drive them and it would have to be an STI)

2. It has leather interior

3. It has a warranty and free servicing

4. is under 45k

5. Has some form of forced induction

6. insurance is under 1200 and the excess is less than 1000

7. It has to do a slowest ET of 15.5

8. Looks the goods

9. Is less than 2 years old

theyre ugly on the outside... unless u can get me one of the euro mid mounted v6 clios.... the ones here are frount mounted 4s arent they?

Now your talking!

Talking about ugly, the clio sport , even worse french made cars... or even worse Ghosn GTR... or that new renault with the big butt. That butt better watch itself, coz I got a couple of boots coming it's way.

I agree about the mini interior, creative but if it was half as the free flowing design of the outside it woulb be spot on. We could go one step further & following the design que of my next car....hurry up please "mr gaydon & mr silverstone", ive been waiting since december 02.

    • 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
