Hhm, saw a beaut gold 200sx S14 on South Road this morning at Mitsies.... then an Arse Bandit floored up along side me, pulled in front of me in behind the 200sx with no gap there for him (city traffic) and no indication, wanker.

Him and his mate wernt looking at the road, soley the sweet gold nissan, they flashed their lights and pulled over the 200sx, with another arse bandit following me for a while (hahahah mate, its a Volvo!). The 200sx was definately set up for drift, big time. Mate, whoever you are, bad luck. With that highly mod'd 200sx I bet my balls you got reamed big time. Did the arse bandits supply lube and a towel to clean up afterwards?

I believe thats considered hoon driving. If the S14 was just cruising along not going anywhere fast there's no reason why the arse bandit :P had to floor it and change lanes without indicating.

;)

I dont know whos it was, but Im damned sure itd take a huge effort to get off a defect, was visibly highly modified. Loved the camber of the rear wheels !! lol / / \ \

I think I saw a ns.com sticker.......

Its plain wrong - why harrass a driver who hasnt done anything wrong? Looked like a safe car, surely they coulda pulled over the clapped out rusted red 70s mazda323 that was in the vicinity.

Might start keeping tampons in the car, in case of "bleeding"

yeah I know what you mean mate .... I wish they did accident/fatality statistics by age of car and/or roadworthiness (ie. assess a car's pre-accident roadworthiness after an accident) and I bet we'd find a startling proportion of accidents and fatalities involve old rusted out cars with bald tyres, rather than our meticulously maintained sports cars with big brakes, high quality suspension and all the safety features under the sun.

Drew's accident is a good example - Skyline driver - near complete complete recovery in months, Festiva driver - d.o.a. - and that wasn't a particularly old car either.

Don't worry it makes my blood boil too. And I fear if I get pulled over one day when I have clearly done nothing wrong, I will tell the cop what I think of him and why, then get bent over double.

sounds like the gold S14 may be Lawrence's ns.com promo car? I hope not, as if that was defected it would never come off defect.

haha yeah - if it was then that guy has no luck with promo cars

His last one was a write off due to a drunk commodore bomb driver was it not?

no1 has spotted a gunmetal R34 GTR yet?

new number plate (next week) is GTR 034

$170 once off payment personalised plate, lucky no1 has it yet

:P

how did you manage 1 off price

Andrew i went to repco for O2 sensor today dont bother with them as they are dear as

NGK part # OZA395-E2

Bosch part # 2269013007 Repco RRP $125.99

i agree there are far to many bombs on the road trying to drive there cars like there skylines

if they made cars cheaper bad for our resale but good for keeping recent then we all might be a little safer oh dont forget the roads that there not spending money on

That would've been the ns.com promo car, its been spotted around town today with a nice defect sticker on display

oh dont forget the roads that there not spending money on

I agree. Adelaide roads are shocking! There'd have to be a lot of accident caused by the poor condition of our roads. Drives me nuts, steering around all the potholes etc. trying to find the flattest spot. LOL

Think I spotted Adz2332 yesterday, about 4:45pm turning on to Kings Rd. If so, nice looking line mate.

    • @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.
