G'day all,

I, today, purchased myself a new car. It's a '93 R33 GTS-t with 70000km and in stunning condition. It just land this week, so it hasn't been complianced so i have to wait 2 weeks before I can pick it up :( But I can't wait!

It's 100% stock (which is what i wanted) and the interior is immaculate. The only thing I have noticed is that it has a Nismo front grill. Well, no doubt I'll be posting regularly getting tips etc, and I look forward to getting to know alot of you.

Cheers. ;)

I paid $22,200 incl tinted windows, 5 year warranty, 6 months rego and a brant system installed. And I don't have pics yet since i dont actually have the car, but once i get it I will post some. I test drove a few skylines and this one seemed quick... Can't wait to get it in my driveway.

It only came in this week, so it hadn't been complianced... It is white pearl, really clean except for a small scratch on the rear bumper, but i reckon it will polish out. I tell you, it has been a long day, and I still have 2 more weeks to wait! I want it now! Just to "knick down the shops" to get some milk is all ;)

Yea, I had already planned it all for a 200sx... then i saw this car, and with a little help from my old boy got a great deal. So now i have to re-research hehe... Probably just looking at a cat-back exhaust and a stereo for the first 6 months... nothing too big in the stez either just a 6 or 8 speaker system. quality not quantity.

I know how you feel man , I am in the same boat , another ten days to go before it even hits the beach , then complience on top of that . I do have this pic from my mate that is bringing it in for me . not quite as hot as what yours sounds like , but it will soon change once I get my grubby hands on it , I have got the sau stickers for it on order and personalised plates wainting here at home too , dont think I will be seeing yours on the street to soon as I will be moving to bris soon but no closer to the border than that .

Good onya on a good purchase dude...

but im doubtful of this quote cat back zorst only in 6 months my moneys on you wont be able to help yourself... :wassup:

Well, my plan is to get the exhaust out as quick as possible first... then work on cooling... See how well it's balanced after taht... either go for more power, or just a nice suspension set up...

Jaqule: My car doesn't sound or look any hotter than yours :) I love that colour, and we are indeed in the same boat... I'm working on my plates... As for seeing me around, I doubt you will, but hey, it's a small world :)

    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • 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
