Anyone know how I can get in contact with the SAU Secretary? Need to get a confirmation of my membership for a track day tomorrow but it's hard getting an e-mail replied to...

Hope your track day is a great one :)

so i buy one of these USB to DB25 parallel cables: https://www.jaycar.com.au/usb-to-parallel-bi-directional-cable/p/XC4847

plug it in, under Device Manager its listed in USB controllers: USB Printer Support. The software I'm using needs it to be a LPT port.

The internet has some solutions for people using old software with new printers, so ive followed them:

Create new printer. Assign it to USB Printer Support. Right click on it and go to Printer Properties. Select LPT1 port. I try to send file with software, software says did not send.

I tried enabling Print Pooling and selecting both LPT1 and the USB Printer Support port. Still does not send.

Then tried creating another printer and assigning it to Virtual USB port001, in printer properties, select LPT1 port. Files does not send.

Any IT folk have any suggestions? the software just sends a basic text file, its not going to a printer.

Oh chatted to a EPA guy on the weekend.

asked about the car testing currently.

 

Didn't answer the question, but did say he uses the building where they test as his car park everyday.....

Why the secrecy does he believe he is in a role that is top secret like Area 51?

 

Is he implying that the testing is active hence there everyday? Or that his team has taken over the area and they no longer test? :/

If he was implying it was business as usual then there wouldn't need to be so coy... sounds like the intake of cars is slowing down?

Someone drive past the moorabbin workshop & have a look at the number of cars outside?

never going to openly admit that they are not testing cars.

These aren't RWC safety items right? or Wrong? :/

Yeah really small (3 of us total) and basically lost a couple of big ish customers over Christmas / New Year due to them down sizing or cutting cost, selling business etc. 

So back on the job hunt, got a few good leads already which is awesome.

Paid out but not much (only here for about a year)

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
