[Squizz]

[boostimports]

SO nice to see another guy fallin in LOVE with a line .... the battery is in the back APPEARENTLy for better stability :S - dont quote me on that.

autotrust: didn't thumper's mum say that in bambi?

[AutoTrust]

I'm not sure, I'm not a big Bambi fan. Mabe Nanna was!

[dAVE]

haha - if thes0pranos point of view applied to everyone we would have a funny world. My dads been in the auto industry for close on 40 years now... and I can tell you he wouldnt be able to find the battery even if i told him where it was....

[AutoTrust]

I'm an auto electrician and it took me 10 minutes to find the battery in an A class mercedes, it was under the drivers carpet mat!! Mind you it then took me fifteen minutes to fit the tracking system so i had a win there. My boss gave up after 5 min and said "that's what i pay you for".

[B-Man]

Bwahhhh Haaaaaaa

That's gold !

Cheers.

thesporano's....sigh...

what r u doin here?

[Nismodified]

battery in the boot helps with stereo install. Well it did on my particular car

[dojobi]

It's hurting my stereo install - it's right where I want my 7x10s to go. I'm shifting mine over slightly so they'll be ok. Then it will be a good thing to have it back there.

[Dahtone Racing]

has anyone with an R32 put thier battery in the boot?

[MattyB]

the battery in the boot also will help with the time the battery will last. as its cooler back there.

[Dahtone Racing]

yea im half way through putting mine in the boot hopefully ill be finished by the end of the week

so we'll see how it goes

[SLY33]

yeah i wuite like the batt in the boot, Im sick of running huge power cables the length of all my old cars!

[Dahtone Racing]

ok guys half way there just gotta mount the battery in the boot

i was thinking of putting a braided hose over the power cable for a bit of extra protection

wat u guys think?

[Craved]

Thant would be pretty expensive the use braided lines! what guage wire are you using?

[Dahtone Racing]

0 gauge i think not 100 percent sure

american auto sell it in thier battery relocation kits

[Craved]

nice, havent seen those kits, but 0 guage is what i had to replace the wire in my 33 from the batery!! hard to find plus esxpensive to get connectors but if it is a kit it's all good!!!

I also notice that when the car is idling it seems to oscillate the revs till it finds a nice idle ie round 700rpm. Mostly the first time you stop at lights for eg.

the 'oscillating' is cause by the car nearly stalling, then the 'anti-stall' kicking in and injecting more petrol to prevent it! It takes the ECU a second or two to get it's head around the situation and even out the revs!

I had the same problem and my car would occassionally stall!

All I did was turn up the idle a bit and it works fine now... nothing outrages, just enough to stop it 'hunting' up and down the rev range!

hey guys where is the ecu in my skyline r 32?>? sorry jus wondering.... how do u reset it and would it be worth doing?>? does it reset the revs of the car aswell

cheers
