I don't have a driveway...

Dare I organise a working bee to get this shit done? Who would properly come? It would probably have to take place at Scotty's who at least has a hoist for dat dere lower car onto engine approach.

"The Birds and the bee" - help get me back on track. Free bbq and severe amounts of alcohol supplied.

just remember to give the booze at the completion of work.

the amount of jobs we have started and had to finish next morning as we got on the piss

But what do you do when a rumour starts that the ecu is considering a transfer to another vehicle and neither denies nor confirms it?

Ask the ecu to draft up a role description & put out a feeler to find a piggy-back to take some of the load.

What's your assembly PB?

I guess we could try for some sort of time setting record; that sounds like me to choose hijinks over getting the job done properly

no shit, im f**king great at pulling shit apart but no good at putting back together, which is why you have miguel and sir odium. those dream boats are f**ken guns.
we could even kidnap borci.

Is there such a thing as too many hands? I see a lot of drinking and hardly any work getting done, or having to ask 8 people where an unlabeled part is because we tore the engine apart zombie horde style lol

The more people present the less accountability per team member. Which can result in a bigger pisstake for something which needs to be taken seriously lol

Looking forward to the Sandown day in January, do you know when we need to register by / when/if it will become full?

Just ordered a new bodykit which is getting painted next week. Time to upgrade the brakes, exhaust and wheels next month as well :cool2:

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • 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.
