Has anyone seen the rising Sunday event at barbagello on the 4th? Or been to one before?

Cars n Coffee is this sunday at Kwinana... are they both on the same day?

 

i went to the first Rising Sunday. heaps of cars got stickered. was a good day but

Clearly you just don't appreciate how rare the Hyundai getz gtr is. It's a 1/1 worldwide. Will be highly collectable in the future.

If your not into collectable cars and like the getz tuner scene then this beast is for you! images%20(1).jpg

Never seen a bad boy like this before? It matches my swimming clothes!car-modification-fail-turbo.jpg.4c1bea07c03e73c563efd30492134a4a.jpg

Hey Trev I was looking up lifter issues on Sau and it had your posts solving the issue?! (r&d maniac) I've noticed a slight rattle in the exhaust cam p/s on no.6. I disconnected the coil pack at rattle revs. 2800-3200 and the rattle went away, phew no piston slap or gudgeon pin issues etc. Was wondering the fix for this without bagging my mate dave out.? Doesn't affect the performance at all and I's only in the specific rev range with the H.t. Lead disconnected? I changed the oil on Saturday and it runs sweet except for the noisey lifter on 6? At those r p.m.?

Doesn't affect the performance at all and I's only in the specific low rev range with the H.t. Lead disconnected it disappeared. I changed the oil on Saturday and it runs sweet except for the noisey lifter on 6? At those r p.m.?

I ran it hard on Saturday morning early on the old oil and it was noticeable at idle. Only noticeable at the 2800-3200 after the oil change? Would assume it only needs a new lifter? or clean (doubt it) and gapping not valve stem seal honing etc? Any advice?

Can only pick up the rattle in 2nd gear under mild acceleration?

i stripped and cleaned my lifters when i rebuilt the engine because i had a rattle for over 100,000Kms. 

 

ended up getting a different head and modified it and used the lifters that came from the new head. the rattle is still there but turned out to be an injector which doesnt affect performance so i havent replaced it yet but i might in the near future as im considering an injector upgrade to top feeds

how loud is it? 

 

not sure if you can use an oil flush to get the gunk out... they arent too bad to clean apart from having to get them out. there are also a couple different varieties on our engines. look the same externally but different sizing internally

sorry too hard to guess without looking. 

 

id imagine with more revs the oil pressure would prevent lifter noise so idle would be worse but thats purely an edumacated guess.

    • 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.
