My car is so popular, some drunk ass rex driver lost control and pulverized the shit out of the rear end early this morning.

Now it looks like a metal sandwich, well at least I can get some compo out of this one.

Dear oh dear !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is your spine ok?

Any whiplash?

that sucks dude.

hope you can see the funny side of it that fate/mother nature/string theory is trying to hint at you that decepticon badges shouldn't be put on a skyline.

everyone knows skylines are autobots.

shan I think you are right....all of these things have been caused by an autobot.

POLICE....you have had a hell of a run of luck....I'm with Phil, buy a lotto ticket!

Oh the lols!

Hmmm...

If one believes that things like these come in threes - yes. Better stay indoors. ;)

unfortunately I do!

I once (over 10yrs ago) smashed 3 different cars over a period of 6 weeks!

1st was my fault (in my car), 2nd was a dik not giving way in a roundabout (mother's car) and the 3rd was another dik driving through a stop sign (rental was written off)

to the OP, dont jump back into that car!

shit that sucks to see it like that!

i know the feeling of your car getting attacked... well in my case kicked.

i was in Canberra after a night out i was leaving the car park and

this islander kicked my rear passengers side of my 32. i stopped and

then 2 came over and opened my door and started kicking me and

punching me in the face. i couldn't do much but all an unprovoked attack

and no cctv footage but now i got to get the side of my car resprayed ;)

What ever happened to respecting a man's automobile.. jesus farking christ. In fact, what happened to society's values these days. I would die trying to protect what's mine.. so if anyone wants to have a go at my property they better be ready for a fight to the death.

this kinda shit makes me want to carry a weapon.

Yeah i bet you don't get senseless acts of vandalism like this in countries where firearms are legal. f**kwits here fear nothing because worst that can happen is they cop a beating - but usually they're either too big or too young to get beaten up so they just don't give a f**k.

If someone did something like that to me (the guy that got his door and then head, kicked in) and I had a weapon of any sort ... seriously I don't think I'd see the outside of a prison for a long time. Which is why I don't have a weapon (short fuse as it is).

As bad as it is, I actually do carry a Swiss Army knife around in my car at all times. Chances are I'll never have to use it, but if things started to get really nasty then I'd whip it out as a warning for them to back off. No, I wouldn't stab someone, unless my life was in critical danger and it was the only way to prevent myself from getting killed.

    • 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.
    • Could be correct. Meter might be that far out. Compare against a known 5 ohm 1% resistor.
    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap.  (edit: I went out and did it right now, the line I had chosen did appear to have no vacuum on it, it used to go to the front of the intake, I've now completely blocked that one off at the bracket that holds several vacuum lines by the firewall.  I T'd into the vacuum line that goes from that bracket to the vacuum pump at the front of the car, but no change in the MAP readings).  Using the new vacuum line that has obvious vacuum on the hose, im still only getting readings between -6.0 and -5.2.  I'm wondering why the ECU was detecting -5.3 when nothing was connected to the MAP nipple and ECU MAP selected as the source. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
