Have transitioned from a barbarian to a civilized computer programmer living inside the digital frontier.. on the grid

Personally I think Conan is much cooler. Who else can take out a camel in a single punch?

Thought u weren't taking your car on track ever again Grant? Grown a pair?????

I'm not taking it to track, I'm spectating.

May doing trackdays when I can afford to...

E-flex. Hamish reckons she might get close to 340kw.

Just keep winding in boost til you get there? lol

This statement is legit as I shall be in attendance at the obsurdly early hour you have requested.

Car is nice and low now should be a great drive up .... How long it take?

I didn't make the call, blame Ash!

and yeah should take a while, as we'll all be on our best behaviour :rolleyes:

TAFE carpark, I've spotted VE Maloo on red P's and couple of spots ahead, VY Maloo on green P's..

Would hate to be there come insurance renewal, must be at least $6k per year for them.

I raise you on this.

I saw a 300C SRT8 or whatever they are being driven by a RED P plater yesterday on the way home. I hated the flamin mongrel

Yeh it's early as Fk mad afternoon nap while woman drives back :laugh:

You got two up on me. Woman doesn't know how to drive manual and also don't think shes coming.

Never been there before, but heard there are quite a few speed camera hotspots on the way?

Heaps of p platers in nice cars... Remember pic of sls amg with p plate?

some kid here has on of those audi 4wd's dont know what theyre called but well up there in price..

he works in collections. dont know how people afford something like that on collections..

Just worked his ass off in the collections department yo!

You can do it too

Jokes.

I don't even have a girlfriend lol

Relatively cars are cheap if u finance it live at home etc what's 1-1.5k a month if u work full time live at home ? I mean that would easily get you a 60-85k car

Good point there sir, but I guess this would only apply for new cars.

2nd hand cars would be a different story though, interest rate on a personal loan would be a killer.

This isn't direct at you Alex. I know your on a high salary so you get my respect brah.

VE Maloo > 300C thingy.

Unless the Chrysler owner paid for it by him/herself.

You all lose out to this:

That picture was epic and made me hate life more than most things do.

    • 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.
