i nearly kissed hello to the last 25km bend, i locked up the fronts and it was sliding right into the railing then i let go of the brakes and it gripped hard and turned...i would have had max 2-3 meters before i hit the railing....the skyline god was on my side last night..haha

and umm yeh the two cars behind me kinda did the same so if any of you fellas heard big brakes screeches it was us...

the cruise was mad fun. i got abit carried away on the way back, sorry if i scared anyone.

grey 32gtr.

cant wait for the next one,sure beats maccanats at penriff.

i think i should bring up that crazy laser. i want one.

il have to introduce myself to more people next time

cheers dave

lol....yeah close call there barns...the guys behind you left a few skid marks...lol..if you know what I mean!

i got flashed by a speed camera on the way home :P I had just come out of an 80 zone into a 60 zone and was sitting at about 70.... :D Oh well I should have known better.

it was on the main road near bexley...we got a little lost on the way home you see..lol

just got to wait it out to see if it comes through

ur lucky they just reduced the fine for this offence, (if it is only 10km over) although you lose more points.

I was in my car (Grey R32) I think i was only one of a few P Platers there, unless everyone took their plates off. I got to Stanwell Tops and then one of my passengers threw up because he was "shaken up" from the drive. I dont know why he chucked his guts up, we werent even going that quick !!!????

LOL!!!!!!!!!!! good work

btw i am a p plater too and had my plates on..

Meet up point was a nice lookout but thats about it.  

Good too meet some new faces, Big HELLO to Daniel and Jerry and the rest of the crew that i spoke to .

hey its Daniel, :wassup:

yeah good to meet you guys too.

Nice to know that that fellow skyline owners are pretty kewl people.

Sounds like most had a good night.

It was an eventful first skylines crooooz for us.

Got pulled over just as we left Kirrawee for going into the roundabout (cnr bath rd) a bit hard.

As we were one of the ones left behind, was just trying to catch up to the others..... thats all officer, i promise... :(

Copper was really good bout it, gave me a breath test,

said that he doesn’t mind us guys getting together taking photos and stuff but we just gotta take it easy.

Also said that he’s into cars as well 'n told me that he has something that could blow this out of the water (r33 gtst)..... hmmmm.

didn’t really wanna push my luck, so I didn’t ask him what it was!

then on the way into the nasho, got a flat on my front left.

so had to get the good ol' space saver out and limp all the way to the lookout and back.

Thanks to those who stopped to help... BiZzReVhEad + gts4.

On the way out had to pull over a few times to let people past me.

Thanks also to those that slowed down to see why i pulled over... sorry dont know ure forum names???

Props to Moanie for her 'fully sick' organisational skills... neva doubted ya

even when it we were at p6d - 8:45pm Homebush and only a few lines were there!

All good in the end!

:D

    • 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.
