By any chance you didn't lend it to Steve from AEM, when they were doing tests on your car and playing with the Wolf V5.

Just a thought.

Yeah I thought that this morning also. Sure enough I called them and yeah they did have it.....to bad it was butchered to make a loom adapter. Anyhoo they are going to buy me a new stock ECU.

On a separate note I asked them about the development for the 34 and looks like it's been dropped with no return to the project in sight at the moment. Marc isn't working at the office on Melrich Drive anymore so I'm not really sure what's going on. I know they had some big Subaru fly-by-wire project on. Meh.

That sucks!!

Any talk of re-embursment? After all they did have your car for an extended period.

I would chase them for an ecu, even if it is a R33 one, then you can sell it. I know someone that will be happy to buy it, at a reasonable price :(. They did promise you a ecu, just because plans have been altered, doesn't mean it is your problem.

I know they have a major headache, at the moment, as the manufacturer for the hand controller, they based the Wolf V5 round, has gone bust and shut down production.

Do you have another ecu to pass epa? Is Pete's the same?

Good luck with the EPA Adz, Nissans are way rich stock!

I could do with my stock ECU also as my modded one is still FOOBARed, but GAFFA has obviously found something better to do with it ..... other than return it to me...... grrrr.

Let us know how the test goes.

I miss my skyline, it is but a dirt collector now... ass end on stands.... discarded in favour of a 4.0l VQ 6 speed V40 Navara.

Yeah I'll be speaking to them when I go down, I had a contract written up. I'll push them for a 33 V500.

I'm gonna borrow Pete's yeah. Lucky huh!

Well let me know, i will be very interested :)

If they give you a ecu, make sure they also supply the adaptor loom.

Yeah just a "random inspection".

Al - I dug out the contract last night and I've filled my end of the deal regardless whether they finish the 34 ECU or not so I'm going to ask for the R33 model and loom. According to the contract I'm entitled to a "V500 Product" so I'll let you know as soon as I speak with them.

Danny - Cheers mate

Matt - Thanks, got Pete's.

Chinny - PM me your e-mail mate :D

Age - Gold mate :P

Gazzilla - I was pulled over on Burwood Hwy. This happened just before I went away so it took about 3 weeks for the EPA notice. If he issued you a fine check the notice, towards the bottom on the left you'll see an offense code and next to that it says "EPA" if they are going to report you. If it was OUR lovely coppa then yes, you will get one I'd say.

Nah had all kinds of drama with Pete's cat. In the end I could not get it on, borrowed another from Scott that night and the flanges were different so I had to rebook again!! Anyhoo, the tyres have been replaced and I have a roadworthy now so I'll get the canary cleared and I can drive it again. Just have to go to the EPA on the 10th now :D

      City of Casey - This is obscene!

      Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.

      Wiring high beams in IC7 for R32 GTR

      By BourneToLive · Posted

      Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know.

      RB30DET timing belt tensioner relocation query

      By zigrb30 · Posted

      G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.

      Smoothline aka Matthew stone

      By DanielStone · Posted

      Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
