OMG- Danny is ALIVE!

I am alive but a mere shadow of my former self!

I hope someone will take some video footage at DECA, i was going to come but will be soaking up rays on the Gold Coast instead. :chairshot

I know this may sound strange but wouldn't Golgo be more fun than the Lada on the skidpan??

The Lada was imported...

But no, not just yet.

Just re-arranging the life a bit. Once I'm sorted... expect Golgo to rise again, badder and better.

For the time being - it's 'Pimp my Collective Owned State Transport to the Glory of the Politburo' as I work on the 'Black Russian' and the super Lada.

More exciting threads to come :P

In golgo corners were a dream of fluffy white clouds, in the lada they will be a nightmare of little devils poking you in the arse. The motorcarna (spelling??) event at DECA should be real exciting, even my car with its shit suspension wont get as much body roll ( I hope).

It has been an exciting thread though, well done on the purchase :).

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
