My unfortunate friend (he owns a silvia) was very impressed to see what model young citiziens skyline owners are. He's used to the "lets do a skid at Aspley maccas" silvia croud.

Good to meet a few new faces.

So hows about we all do skids at Milton maccas next time?

hehehe

i like skids tho!

:);):D

lol

I have pics but because I am unco they are crap and not worth posting.

Great turn out, THANKS HEAPS to daniel (3LIT3 FORS3) for the ride!

Thanks also to Mud for organising the meet!

Pics. Or Death.

Meh I'll post them when I get home, hope you like looking at bright blobs of light that looked like they have been drawn on my an epelectic 4 year old having a fit, or totall darkness with what looks like a headlight floating in the middle of no where.

(No offence intendend to anyone suffering from epelepsy either)

Oh and only Daniels, Jasons and Micks cars I got shots of.

Could it be possible that this could become a weekly thursday night thing for skyliners to meet?

Last nights turn out was pretty good and the location selected was also good considering no cops turned up and the security had let us be as we were not doing anything wrong.

Only thing though was it was to far for us southsiders.

I say we make a weekly event at Officeworks at Annerley/Woollongabba area along ipswitch road at its just on the border of the CBD but its also on the southside too.

I still didn't meet half of you. Was a good outing though. In case anyone wanted to know, I was the tall bloke with the green shirt.

BTW Squizz, nice work on the on-ramp afterwards. I honestly thought you were going to turn it around. GOGO Attessa!

We've done the weekly thursday night thing before and it doesn't work out. Works for about the first 3 weeks then people become bored and un-interested in meeting weekly.

We already do have a weekly meet on tuesday nights at different restaurants around brisbane, maybe you should join in on one of these?

By all means, try the thursday night thing again, I was just advising you that it's been done before and fades out every time.

    • 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.
