Hi

link you put up is not right Front Shockes have EYE not like them,

look at car before you buy,

like Man con :whistling: Why spend $$$ just shift kit box & drive :thumbsup:

waste money you will never get back,

thats why Jason started getting rid of bits he brought ,waste of time & money ,

thanks chuckie... heres the actual page i got that link from - http://www.justjap.com/store/home.php?cat=270&sort=orderby&sort_direction=0&page=8, any chance you could point out which one exactly would fit my ride?-im not exactly sure as to what i should be looking for on my car to discern a "fork" or "eye" type setup...or am i just a moron coz its usually THAT obvious?-cheers mate.

not sure what you have in S1`s

so you need to talk to lads with S1s ,

Cheers

Look under the back of your car at the rear hubs, you should be able to easily see where the shocks bolt to the hub and discern whether it is an eye or a fork.

thanks mate-took a pic of the rear right just in case to confirm...lucky i did too coz i only just noticed my front right CV boot is cracked-gutted-probably change it when i go to replace the suspension.

hey anyone keen for a bit of a meet up sometime easter weekend as i will have my wagon back for that weekend fully tuned before it goes into paint the week after easter?

I'm heading down to the south coast for easter.. road trip in teh skidwagoon! :banana:

I do believe that looks like an eye ;)

Craig how`s the 2 wheel drive going :whistling: ,

nice to get you out & start to see some of Perth Hills :thumbsup: .

Bubba any news on BOX :unsure: .

called past steve`s no answer pinch.gif .

There's none in Perth :( Best Steve can do for me is a RWD s2 auto or 34GTT auto after Easter, and then I'll have to try swap the guts into my casing >_<

Yeah car's still in 2wd mode - will plug it back in soon. Spark plugs are still giving me grief, and it's time for a decent cat because it's feeling really restrictive. Cheers for the blast through the hills Sat night - sorry to hear your g/box is shagged Bubba :( - it was put under a little bit of stress.

lol I think little is an understatement :(

It seems like the tranny oil pump at this stage but I'm not holding my breathe for the internals to have survived very well..

Thanks to chuckie for towing me home as I still couldn't get any gears :/

Had a blast nonetheless! :D

But.. I think the quicker and cheaper ride is going to be dropping the engine back in the 32 :blink: will worry about it all after easter!

    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
