Small update.... ITS RUNNING. Fired first go! Smells like burnt dust apparently .

A 9174 would just make the EGP pressure issue worse and in my mind it seems like a bit of a GT RS shit going on. Not that it's horrendously bad (It wouldn't be no twin buttplug pressures), That's NOT

yeah my mate also has an evo - 8 mr & that had 300awkw, best way to describe it was like a little angry bulldog...very quick, nimble & changes direction like a go kart...it acutally converted me as i was looking at buying an evo a couple yrs back but i couldnt let my old 32 slide :)

as for pauls car, it seems like he did the rounds yesterday :)

he offered the keys to me as i let him drive my rb30dett when i had it done BUT tbh, that back right wheel scared the hell out of me mate - i was so intrigued so i had to take his offer as a passenger.

so ive been in DARDVL back in 2004 when my mate at Autostyle owned it (over 450awkw with a naaasty t88), my 3ltr which had 405awkw, another mate of mine bought a new r35 which was pure engineering & then there is pauls car...this sperm whale is hard to describe as i didnt feel any lag or 'off boost' as the revs ramp up. those 10.5" wheels struggle & offer no traction at all in 2nd gear. it is body altering, my stomach felt upside down & all of my upper muscles were tense during & after the drive - it was all smiles for me.

the funny thing is whenever u stepped on it, u had to turn it 1/4 turn to the right - i know that the back wheel was out of alignment but this was the same as Domonic Russo's yellow r32 gtr which was making 650awkw where he had to counter steer to keep it straight.

The whole steering angle thing I'm sure is just the rear right pointing in the wrong direction. When in RWD, it'll spin but hold DEAD STRAIGHT.

Marko, we will try again after the new suspension goes in ;)

i'll be waiting - thought about putting a cage in it (for added safety)?

      It's not any meta data. They have scraped images from everywhere, and then use AI to compare your photo to other photos and work out where you are.

      I just looked at my camera phone settings, apparently I have "not allowed" for location  Will that stop that app?

      Can you not just turn it off on your phone if required? I remember a brief on this, well, I remember the brief, not what to actually do. LOL

      Thanks for posting, your engine bay looks tops. I'm fairly sure you posted the wrong video though, I think you were supposed to upload the one from your "private test road" where it's banging off the limiter with the gate open?

      Stagea obd II low voltage

      By MBS206 · Posted

      This is something to be careful of. I did a bit of digging on the NM35, as I spend a lot of time on near brand new cars and CANBus related stuff, which uses the same "OBD2" plug for a fair chunk of making my life easy. The NM35, does NOT support OBD2. The data pin is actually on Pin3, which is a manufacturer specific pin, and requires Consult3 to connect to the NM35. Your low voltage, is either because the NM35 doesn't have 12V to the constant power pin on the J1962 (OBD2) connector, OR, it is attempting the standard comms, (CanBus, K Line, etc) and can't see any voltage on those pins. Some people have had success accessing SOME data from the vehicle on OBD2 specification, using a module that supports KPW. My assumption, like Duncan has stated, it will likely actually be JOBD, where there is some cross over with the OBD2 and JOBD standards. Note, lots of "OBD2" dongles, do NOT support KPW, which is what you need for a lot of Japanese vehicles of this era (And even up until recent years!), EG, Subaru, Suzuki, etc.    The end of this thread is probably worth a read, as some people did find a way to get a display up in the NM35 recently, looks like someone implemented all the stuff needed to make it work. (The right protocols).
