spotted a silver gtr r32 almost completely spin out at the lights while taking off, main nth rd/grand junction road...right in front of me :cheers:

anyone else seen that r33 almost chopped in half in the city?

driver - the gtr last night u mean by kart mania? Yeh thats my friends fiance.. he removed the fuse making it RWD or something..and kicked it a bit hard.. dont think he really expected that to happen..we thought he was gonna lose it and go up the kurb.. we were sitting at the lights by kart mania watchin. Rang my friend just after it happened and she wasnt very happy with him :S

seen that 33 at the end of o'connell st last nite...........seen it around, and personally it doesnt surprise me to see the car like that (my personal opinions.......flame away if you disagree). Heart dropped a bit when i seen a skyline cut open cos i thought it might hav been one of you guys

Saw a nice silver/grey R33 sedan at Montague Farm this morning. Didn't realise it was there until I went past your mates blue WRX so didn't get a wave in, so here it is now. :thumbsup: Also saw my first gunmetal R33 Impul sedan on Regency Rd. Tried to give a wave but didn't get to make eye contact. Took the opportunity to admire it from a few different angles though, it was almost like seeing double. We missed a great photo opportunity....where's that camera when you need it!! Will try to be better prepared next time. :santa:

apparently thats a stolen car. those low life crashed it. the owner only has fire and theft insurance for it.

was workin on prospect road last week near the new shops they're building past the council chambers, sliver 33 with the plates x** 069 (i think), had SAU stickers on it bout lunchtime. I was in the worksite, stalking everyone i knew from 13m up in the air :santa:

oh yeah, and ive seen mike_ a bit lately...............more often than not (incl tonite) parked at the morphett arms. New drinking hole hey?

Working hole actually! I work in the bottlo there now.

Best job I've ever had!

That would be my friend from works impul. Hes not really into the 'car scene' as he puts it, doubt u would ever get a wave or nod or anything out of him lol

Nice car though, stock as a rock, he wont do anything to it.

yeah another guy that works there owns the 32, got a bit of a mini skyline club happenin at work, got another guy with a black 33 workin there too. They dont poser park like i do though :P lol

    • @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.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
