Ive applied for quite a few mining/oil jobs around australia and overseas so could be anywhere in the coming months, which is cool. Also applied for a couple of consulting jobs around oz. Hope im somewhere where i can bring my car+get bigger turbo. Not really too kean on working in defence unless its in a fighter pilot type role which could be possible.

Vange thats funny stuff!

Tried all the careerone.com.au and SEEK.com.au websites, they automatically updated me when i was looking for a job. I'm finishing my last BUGE subject at the moment for Comp. Systems Engin. with Honors and i just got a job as an Electrical Engineer. In short, read the advertiser alot and keep a sharp eye, my mum actually spotted the job that i now have. Seeming im a graduate i think you shouldn't be to far off (having experience).

Career as F1 driver........ :no: Did Go karting when younger, drove dad's superkart...he raced F3000 over seas and open wheelers in Europe - Problem being we don't have the same backing as those overseas (sponsorship for 1 year - 300,000)...Craige Lowndes is a good example, good talent, just not to the standard over there, not the 'correct' backing. Drivers over there are much better than he, with exception of Mark Webber...... thinking about it, supercars are cheaper over there.... so that could help them :(

Spotted: Alot of R33's, mainly white down the bay, or along the Marina section. Silver R33, and also a silver GTR along Tapley's road and a black stock looking (P-plater) GT-R

Spotted a neat 4 door black R33 at Hackham Woolworths carpark at around 3:00pm

Was lowered, and had ROH rims (blade, i think)

looked pretty neat, but must have kids, cause there were a lot of finger prints around the rear handles!!! :D

hi ppl,

Ive been on here for a few months but havent really posted often. So i guess im a newbie still.

Today at about 1pm i spotted the bloke who owns the silver cefiro with sr20. Car looks sweet as and Dori spec to the max! Sounded awesome.

cheers Josh

Did you go to flinders like me (comp sys eng 2004)? Theres a couple of peopol on these forums from flidners eng.

Saw a maroone R33 getting pulled over by plain clothes bike on cnr nrth and dequetevile terraxcw yesterday.. he didnt look happy

Unfortunately not, went to what i call (from where i lived at the time) dingo woop woop Mawson Lakes, UniSA. It took me an 2 hours each day of travelling (hour each way)

Saw Vange today on Payneham Rd at about 4:55PM, car was looking nice as usual. You don't look out of place in a suit either mate :D

lol thanks man, i saw like 4 skylines on fri on paynaham...which were u?

saw a white 33 on rundle sat nite, plate RH1, havent seen b4....any1 here??

I see that white 33 with the RH1 plate quite a bit up around walkley heights shopping centre, thought it was your car actually vange but obviously not...

    • 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.
