this is a big hey y'all to the country members between sydney and melbourne, just thought maybe we should come out of the sheds and represent the country boys (and girls)

could we just get a show of interest to all get together in a location more in the middle of both the big cities????

reply and we'll see how we go :(

Canberra has a strong n freindly SAU crew. Perhaps a meet in the middle.:rofl:

Question - cop much crap from the V8 heads where ur from? Know when I was down Albury way they were not appreciative of the Liner.

I appreciate most cars but i strongly dislike D!ckheads.

I'll have a chat to the Lads 2night and see if there is a good interest in a cruise down Wagga way.

If the crew want to stay overnight how bout accomodation? Perhaps a property close to town?

BTW - can anyone remember an SAU National event ?

Sheezus - new when I got in last night I was spose to post. Well not good news for something happening in the very near future. Got interest but not enthusiasm ATM as everyone is focussed on Chrissy. Have a large group on Sunday at our Christmas cruise so will bring it up again.

EDIT - It's only 4 hours away. You should cruise up for Sunday!

Remember Jan up here also has the Summer Nats and then the drags follow on.

So were thinking Wagga in Jan sometime? I'll post on Sunday eve or Monday.

- Yeah, I agree with arm85, come to Wagga for a cruise and show the local aggies that there is more to life than a WB ute with: 253 V8 /M21/Bullbar/Rollbar/Towbar/Spotlights/Aerials/2-way/CB/UHF/14" Steel Wheels/Stickers/Lee Kernaghan and the country boys (not sure if that is right or not) Mudflaps - did I mention aerials????

If anyones worried about accomodation - come and stay at my place!

    • @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.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
