Found some! Thanks all.

I'm after some stock/genuine AFMs for my R32 GTR. Two of them I guess. By the way - can you bolt on Z32s on a stock setup with stock computer without trouble?

Yeah, who calls a channel Dave? Yep lots of euro supercars - seeing more and more audi R8s around. Months ago I even saw Jeremy clarkson driving past in that tiny little blue thing that he took into the BBC offices in a recent top gear episode. Guy's got a massive head - or maybe the car made it look bigger. But sadly no skylines!? I've seen one proper worked one in 5 months - an R33 GTR. Hell I even saw a VS commodore ute the other day that someone must have imported.

Yep, you're right. Not clarkson. I just picked up the mag down at the offy as I live in london. Hell it's top gear saturation here, it's on TV 24-7. I even watch it while eating breakfast. Not sure there is a GTR yet in the UK, as that one from the article was driven near the nurburgring. And the stig apparently "materialised from a forest somewhere near Nitz, stood in the middle of the road and held his hand for us to stop".

I looked at the Tuggers pool one a while back, looked pretty shoddy, and only a small room or two. I think sutho, although not the biggest is size of all the gyms, has the most useful equipment. I went to CISAC for a while, but although it was massive in area, seemed to be lacking a few key machines. I think all gyms get crazy on mondays after work when people remember how fat they are. On thing I can say about CISAC is it has better eye candy. There's no attractive chicks at sutho

Been snapped up I'm afraid.

Hi all, this is grossly off topic for this website... but anyway I'm looking to transfer my full access membership at the Southern Cross Health Club in Phillip as I'm moving overseas. So for anyone who is umming and ahhing about getting into shape (or has friends family/friends who need to), this is a good deal... you will not have to pay the $199 joining fee, and would only have to see out the 6 months left on the membership instead of the standard year. And since you would be taking over my membership, you'd get the older cheaper rates of $13 a week. That's it - no joining fee, no transfer fee... $13 a week. And I benefit because I don't have to pay the $199 cancellation fee (ouch). Cheers.

I just fitted the Garrett 2860-7s (note 7, not 5), which after much research I came to the conclusion were the equivalent of GT-SS. I would have gone the GT-SS if it wern't for the garretts being much better value. Now these 2860-7s are confusing because acording to Garrett's website they are "OEM on Nissan RB26DETT used in Skyline R34 GT RN-1" - so I assume they are what's commonly refered to as N1 turbos. And the 2860-5s are roughly equvalent of HKS 2530s, which are another level up from GT-SS, and not great for mid range... as far as I know, correct me if I'm wrong. So anyway, my hoopty (R32 GTR) is much nicer with the new turbos - thrust arrives a tiny bit later than stock, but still a fat mid range. But is crying out for the appropriate supporting mods such as a computer of some description. Anyway, I'd take you up on that six pack, except I'm taking off overseas in a matter of days. Good luck.

Ok, I've checked out the coolant temp sensor with a multimeter and here are the results: Dead Cold (<10deg): ~3.5k ohms Hot: ~1 - 1.5k ohms The specs for the sensor as provided by RB30-POWER: 20deg water temp 2.5k ohm (or 2500ohms) 80deg water temp 0.3k ohm (or 300ohms) So, a little off - but it certainly doesn't look like it's stuck on a value. Curiously though it did run quite well this morning after I tested it, maybe a dodgy connection? Anyway I'll keep a monitor on the situation.

Crap, didn't notice the pm. I'll try it out asap. Cheers for the info.

^ Why would that be? Does the power fc not use this sensor when cold?

Scrap that... the mongrel bastard was playing games. It's as bad as ever. So not the AFMs after all.

Well this morning, after cleaning the afms and resetting the computer - it didn't do it! But I'm not going to claim victory yet - I bet the twisted bastard of a car is just playing games. So yeah anyway RB30, that would be tops if you could give us a run down on testing the coolant temp sensor. Firstly, where is it? I'm told it's near the top radiator hose - but there seems to be a few different sensor looking things around there.

Yeah rang up today about the coolant sensor. The guy sounded a little confused... he concluded there is a sensor right near where the top radiator hose goes into the block that sends messages to the computer. It's $93.40 retail price and the part number is 2263001U00 (if I can read my shite hand writing correctly). I'm going to hold off on it until I can rule out my afms. I cleaned them today with electrical spray, but obviously can't see if it's made any difference until the morning when it's fully cold. I'll let you know.

Yeah well as I said in my original post my o2 sensors are brand new as they were changed with the turbo/dumps a week ago - so rules them out in my case. I'm going to see how much a new coolant temperature sensor is tomorrow, and also see about my air flow meters. I have heaps of oil and crap in my intake pipes (bigger issue) so that's why I suspect afms. I'll keep you posted.
