Saw what I think was an R33 front with R32 back turning onto Delfin Island West Lakes this arvo about 4 20pm?

Sky blue paint with black (vented?) bonnet? Only caught a quick look at it, anyone know this car?

yep it belongs (or belonged) to an Asian guy who worked at Z-Imports - last I heard he was trying to sell it. IceDuck bought his old R34GTT wheels for me to borrow for my R34 for compliance, nice guy that he is :happy: - oh and if you read this Duc (either Duc), I still have the centre caps here in my garage - forgot to give them back to you.

It has an R34 GTR front end conversion. I still haven't seen an R33 front on a 32.

SECRET is gunmetal grey, the one i have seen is at least, wide side skirts, not to my liking tho.

Is there another?

Good freind of mine, only "secret" skyline i know i adelaide, and its gunmetal grey. However i did see a gold tuff looking R33...it blocked me at Upark (under tafe in the city) coz the guy lost his ticket lol. so i was sitting in my stock "beast" behind it for a bit, waiting 4 him to move away from the exit.

Saw that gold car with the CF driving down main north road towards grand junction intersection last night as i was pulling into my driveway...sounds very tough and looks tough as well

i havent seen secret...what is so special about it may i ask?

dont know what he has had done to interior or engine but tough looking, nice colour, altho not a fan of his side skirts. just a nice looking car.

good luck selling that non turbo skyline vange...good price but i think skylines should have never been released non turbo.

Saw a hot blonde chick ( i hope it was not one of those good from afar, but far from good situations) in a black 33 on melb street today. Looked pretty stocky apart from exhaust (the car not the girl). (Didnt have a FMIC --> Could have been non turbo and that would be a shame/waste).

Anyone know of any potential employers: Im a bored Electrical Engineer, good with his hands, very logical/mechanically minded, will work hospitality (if have to --> but not in the future once the AWA's kick in or in any other field which is going to have its union abolished so the workers and smaller people are left at the whims of blood thirsty multinationals pushing down rates/standards of living/wages etc) --> resulting in increased gaps between the rich and poor (in case all you people were oblivious to what was going on).

Would prefer racing/stunt/crazy driving job but will settle for race engineer/mechanic/tuning and maybe even GIGOLOING if worst comes to worst....... I just dont want to lose my baby car!!!

Oh yeah.... and i have sort of lost my licnece (not from being a hoon --> just lost my wallet behind the couch somehwhere and it dissapeared) so jobs/employers have to be within riding range of nrth Adel.... (u dont need a licence to be a race car driver do you?)

Potential employers with private jets (preferably decommisioned fighter jets) are encouraged to apply ....

:D

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
