to all SAU,

last night a friend died in a car crash near city beach, it seems no one was really at fault, no speeding, no drugs, just an unseen car and then bamm. he was my gf's half brother. the driver and him were only 17 and 16. i was out driving last night nearby, and got pulled over at the booze bus on empire. we could all see the ambulance lights speed by.

its hit all of us pretty hard, plz everyone take care on the roads, u dont have to be doing anything stupid or illegal to take someones life away. the driver who survived would be going through so much right now, even though blame cant really be laid. our thoughts are with all involved.

keep alert out there, and maybe one less life would have to be lost

damn i sound like a road safety ad, but thats what my message is

Sorry to hear mate.

I myself witnessed a head on(car was on wrong side of road for no reason) a few weeks back and was first on scene. Was a big eye opener and not a pretty sight. You can be the best driver in the world but you cant stop others hitting you.

Like you said drive safe and be alert.

All the best.

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
