Thanks all for the awesome day! :) Glad I didn't end up getting lost :P

Good to meet people.

Loving the pics!

and yeah, keen for the next one :)

The guys with gopros (or similar) get any decent videos? some aaarrbbee noise? :)

I got a little bit of crappy in cabin footage but not alot of outside noise, mostly rattles and bumps. :/

Didn't get the whole cruise (unfortunately.) I forgot to set it up properly and actually set up the cam as we were driving. :wacko:

Yeah i don't think it came out that great. Lots of wind noise and besides that he said it just looks like a Golf going for a drive haha. Was the first time using it so i think he'll get it more finely tuned before something a bit more exciting like texi or wakie.

Yeah I always thought that would be an issue with external cameras. Might be worth getting a sound recorder aswell and mounting that somewhere else.. Might have a little better audio quality?

Hahaha, yeah most of mine looks like I was going for a drive behind a Golf, and then a Silver R33. Still kinda cool though.

and yeah, need to refine techniques. Might try a mini disc recorder for sound.

Hey! Nothing wrong with that silver r33 :P

Yeah disk recorder would work well I think.

I think this would be a good position for a recorder, but maybe tilt it up more..

Pretty much lol. If we pooled all the footage from different cameras you might be able to do a neat montage but as Shell said, mine looked like a Golf-driving-blonde that got caught up with some riff raff :P

So, I was asked by quite a few people if my car was a "J Car" No idea what that means.

Many years ago there was a guy named Jerry who owned a shop called J-Racing. Jerry had a brother named Johnny who also worked at J-Racing, whom originally owned a pretty cool looking Honda Civic. Johnny got rid of the Honda and started being spotted in a bright orange R33, which became known as the "J-Racing Skyline".

Johnny moved to Sydney and worked for Jetspeed, whom J-Racing got a lot of stock from.

Hence the questions about "is that the old J-Racing Skyline"? If it was the Jetspeed car then it is indeed the J-Racing Skyline.

Nothing bad, just some nostalgia for us older members from "back in the days". Good to see it back in the hands of a respectful owner :)

Edit: and it seems J-Racing still exist purely as a smash repairer and bodykit shop in Fyshwick.

Arhh, some light shredded ! Now I got the correct story of the car(:

Cheers ! Oldm8 Helga (Named already haha) has shown a different side to her at the cruise. I'm tempted to fix the rail damage and do it up, time and costs are involved. But, we'll see how we go.

(Might take it to Fyshwick smash repairs and see if they'll give me a friendly discount given it was their old car :D)

I accidentally deleted my footage from the weekend. That would have been exciting to watch haha.

Also, if you have a GoPro's on the outside of a car, we normally put tissues or foam to over the mics in the housing.

I have video footage... but im not very good at internet or computers.

If you want i can email to you

OR

someone tell me how to upload it to sau- SIMPLE instructions for a simpleton pls

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
