Muppet:  Is that a GTR?

LeeWah: Sure is.

Muppet:  Love the paint job.

LeeWah: Thanks mate.

Muppet: Who did it?

LeeWah: Nissan.  It's a stock color for R33 GTRs (midnight purple)

Muppet: Is it fast?

LeeWah:  Yeah, it hold's it's own

Muppet:  You reckon you can beat my mates HSV GTS?

LeeWah: Dunno.  May have to check one day :rant:

Muppet: I reckon it'd be pretty close.  My mate and I dragged off a XR6-T the other day and spanked it.  

LeeWah:  Good on ya.  Both have a fair bit of go

Muppet: You into street drags?

LeeWah: Used to go but gave it up a long time ago and keep it to the track now.

Muppet:  You should come on Thurs night!  We'll have a drag

LeeWah:   I may just do that.

Muppet:  Can I look under your bonnet?

LeeWah:  Sure

Muppet:  OMFG!!!  What the hell is that????!!

LeeWah: It's a 1000hp turbo. tone>

Muppet:  Nice to talk to ya.

LeeWah: Have a nice day :P

ROFLMAO!! Thankyou,Mr LeeWah,Sir,for so casually destroying a muppet so tastefully without even turning a wheel in anger! Sensational! I would give various soft body parts to have been standing there at the time of the conversation! Maybe the spotty little git might have a bit more respect for anything other than his "Ozzie muscle" car...

i say too many of u drive like girls, ive got a r32 gtst 12 psi, 3" turbo back and pod, i cant remember last time i was actually beaten in a run on the street.. mind u i dont that much, but i seem to get all these people with cars like corolla's, swifts, etc rekon there cars will flog mine because they beat skylines all the time?... or maybe they just trying to race and we just dont notice?..

I don't know about you, but i'm sure its goes like this, i get it all the time..

Driving down the freeway, on the speed limit, then some dope in an excel or whatever comes up your arse, then overtakes, giving you some sorta wierd ass look......they think they are racing you :cheers:

Then they prolly go to all thier mate "ohh i took this skyline on today, and i blew his doors of!!" and his mates are like "aww sick maaate"....wank :whackit:

Not a Skyline, but i was riding in a mate's 300ZX in Melbourne. we were sitting at the lights and an Integra pulled up next to us. On green, the Integra floored it off, while we took off as per normal. We pulled over into a servo and surprise, surprise, mr integra was standing there filling up his car with a wide grin on his face. "i owned you", me and my mate looked at each other and my mate sighed and said "yeh you did"

If that's the case, then to the question "Have you been beaten in a race?", my answer would have to be "Yes. Yes I have." but does it count if you didn't know it was a race to start off with?

What actually makes it a race anyway? Do I get a trophy at the end of it all or is the speeding ticket and the confiscation of my vehicle my prize?

I may drive like a girl but at least I'll have my licence, a functioning body and the knowledge that I am actually faster than the penis envying turdburger who wants to race on the street.

Besides, petrol is expensive these days and at 22L/100Kms, I'm trying to save it for normal driving...

luckly mine dosnt have a fuel consumption like ures leewah :cheers: although ur car driving normal would probly be faster then mine!lol

and by the way i was being sarcastic about driving like girls :cheers:

shits me how every guy in excel expects us to be giving it all the time

lol most of my mates who own turbo's are pretty amazed how much I push the N/A... I reckon the faster your car is, the more respect you have for it, and hence the less you punish it.

But as said before, if you race people on the street, regardless of who wins, you're an idiot.

Couple things i notice

1) When the lights go green and you take off slowly (i dont like causing a scene by jetting off), the other car hears your exhaust (even though you are crawling like a snail) and think its a race... they speed off and next set of lights, they think they just owned you and give you a cheesy grin =?

2) If you are travelling at x km/h, all the other cars have to travel at x + 10 km/h and be in front.

3) Another is the automatic impression people get when they learn that you drive a skyline. My girl friends all asked my why i got a skyline as they though "skylines are dangerous as they're poorly made".

clearly not educated and media brainwashed.

Hmm

Short story of mine which makes me laugh when i look back on it,

i was standing with some friends on the side of the road next to a couple of performace cars.

To my lovely surprise 2 habibs (with caps touching the roof) Roll past us, the guy in the passenger seat leans out the window and starts to spurt out "FUULLLYY......" thats about as far as he got since the wind caught his cap and blew it off... they had to stop, turn around & get out of the car to pick it up, putting up with me and my mates just clapping and laughing.

Still makes me smile to this day :(

haha

Me and my mate (GTRRRR) were out one night having maccas in rockingham (WA), anyways we both had our P's then and these 2 ugly snooty chicks talking to themselves go"Err These two driving daddy's car" and then later one said under "Cheap bastards, they drive skylines yet they eat at maccas"

Im just sitting there laughing thinking, what? so now i have a skyline, im banned from eating at mcdonalds?

anyways as they were walking out one of them muttered "Get a ford"

i lost it, i couldnt help myself anymore...

I had a chick serve me at Maccas drive thru and she asked me if i were one of those guys that cared only about their cars and not their GF.

Just too piss her of i said that

in our relation ship my Car comes first Fiance comes 2nd and Maccas comes 3rd so hurry the fu(k up and give me my food cause my cars running out of fuel Fiance wants her food and my maccas is gettin cold

as you could probably understand she was a little upset

She called me a smartass as i were driving off i thought it was a fair call havent seen her there since

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
