Hey guys, car theft is rampant at the moment on the north shore with chatswood and lane cove being *known* hot spots.

Please be careful.

On Thursday November 28th at 4am one of my friends in St Ives caught 4 guys under his bonnet attempting to steal his black R33 GTST from outside his front door. the following night a 200sx was stolen from the same street. They had ripped out his alarm from the engine bay but hadnt got into the cabin.

The sunday before another friend in Lane Cove has his 180sx stolen from up his driveway. Fortunately the 180 has been found in Macquarie park missing only small parts like bov etc.

Chatswood police have mentioned that performance car theft on the north shore is VERY high at the moment

Be careful guys its getting pretty bad again.

:(

I need a tazer, are they legal?

if YOU are threatened, not your property.

tazer's are illegal.

self-defence is not a complete defence, only partial. meaning: you kill someone you don't get done for murder, but manslaughter. up to the judge whether he believes you or not. you may even get off.

however, doesn't automatically mean you are free from liability...

a judge will always frown upon you 'defending' your property, such as a car, rather than your 'persons,' as property can always be replaced and its not a danger to yourself.

      Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
