bj,

Here is my new car.

Cheers

My GTR

looks good mate.

hope the weather imporves for traction tomorrow or it might be a little interesting for half the field :P

Liquid horsepower YEAH

Was a good day from what I saw. I only stayed til lunch but at that stage the black evo was in front. Who won it in the end?

I was in a nismo jacket if anyone saw me. Next time you see me, say hello :O

Saw you and the car :)

Didn't get a chance to say howdy as i was kinda sidetracked.

Hope all the boys that went in it (LUCKY BUGGERS) had a good day and tahnks for putting on abit of a show.

Forgot the mention that i was proud of the "Skyline" entries there.

Bart, loved seeing you come off the last couple of corners mate, glad you put that suspension to good use.

Stuart, LOVED the 7000RPM launch's off the start line.

Omar, you have a FulliSik (brand of his exhaust so im told :) ) sounding skyline mate and good to see your not affraid to throw it around.

I wont comment on Choppings car as im not really a fan <_<

Was great to see a large variety of cars out there having a go.

Really bummed that i didn't get in on the action myself but if i can get a cage and a few other little bits a peices at a good price then maybe we can look at a TEAM thing for the next one or Collinsvale???

Cheers B

yeah the GTR launch off the line was awesome :)

The black 31 sounded pretty damn tough and he was gunning it from what I saw. What mods did that have?

Still don't know who won? A mate of mine, Andrew Robinson, was driving the Golf GTI and came 4th outright I think. That thing goes pretty hard and he is a good driver. I think he mentioned he was within 4 tenths of the gtr. pretty good effort.

So who won?

On my final and fastest run I actually launched at 8000! the surface wasn't that grippy so I didn't think it would hurt anything too much.

Not having run there before, I thought the course was suprisingly tight. Conrats to Leigh in the Evo.

    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @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.
