What a day of spotting :)

Midday spotted a dark grey R35 GTR parked in Hillsdale.

Then at 5PM I spotted [KR4-GTR] in Kingsford near the Maccas at the lights, gave a nod to each other haha...all I can say is :):D amazing man, I love it! Ohh and excuse the damage at the front, in the proccess of fixing her all up :)

While they're not skylines, i spotted a vast amount of Muscle Cars yesterday that were on a Cruise from WSID to Pitt Town.

A few standouts were:

A Matte Black 57 Chev with a massive blower out the top. Must of been running something mean, when he was sitting at the lights, the whole car was wobbling..and when he gave it some stick it was the goods (was running fat drag tyres on the rear)

A maroon VC Commodore with a worked off it head 308

A Purple XY GT with orange wheels (looked mint!) - sounded like a weapon too.

And a maroon older Falcon (not sure what model...but an insanely worked 358 Cleaveland, full roll cage, drag tyres, massive bonnet bulge, custom fuel set up. Idles off its head..and the guy had his 18month old baby....ASLEEP in the back seat..i thought that was so f*ckin funny

Saw 2 x R34's at Narellan Town Center on Sat night, and saw a white R34 through Rhodes today..

Also last Thursday I was following a white R32 on the M5 for a while, then later spotted the car parked in Kogarah. As I was leaving work he pulled out behind me and drove with me for a bit.. Pretty funny!

Good to see a few skyline's around there. I just moved into that area and all i see are ford/holden/utes... shits me to tears!

Yeah I live around there, hardly ever see Skylines out and about so it's pretty exciting when I do haha :)

    • For sure the later RB26 variants had a different setup (6 cam voltage sender?), but the RB25DE/DET share the same ECU pinout/PCB footprint, and at the ECU plug it ends up being 'throttle sensor in' & 'throttle sensor out' (to A/T TCU) ...you stick a multimeter on these pins and you'll find them directly connected (0 ohms) ; I had an pair of Nissan ECUs on the bench long ago, and I noticed this throttle sensor in/out link, actually linked to an op-amp ...which was unpopulated on the NA board, but present on the T board and I went 'ah-ha!' in some moment of clarity... ...it wouldn't surprise me if they changed strategy here though (in the software and actual monitoring of this signal), because they did with other stuff (A/T signals).. and 0.45v as a trigger point makes sense, as that's what the external TCU units expect at idle ; kudos, thanks for that insight...I suppose it boils down to whether or not Consult can display real time data of that signal's voltage... ...in any event, it presents the same target...ie; rotate TPS unit to achieve 0.45v to suit both ECU&TCU, and where do you goto from there? Just disconnect TPSwitch connector and/or that plus TPSensor connector....or do you go for the throat and disconnect IACV solenoid and see if it still stalls? (probably throws a recoverable fault code and goes for default idle strategy?)...
    • I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it. 
    • MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
    • Thank you all for you assistance. I contacted Nistune regarding the support for the RB20DE along with my ECU Code (23710-10U00). They do have a map for it and added the RB20DE as a purchasable option now as well. They also added Malta as a Billing and Delivery options as this was missing. I was honestly amazed at their quick response and action, it took less than 24 hours. I also looked again at direct fit options for injectors, just in case I were to replace them. DeatschWerks seem to use a Bosch EV14 base and makes ones that fit mine at 440cc lowest, but also have 550cc at the same price. I tried looking for other direct fit options and managed to find one (also Bosch EV14 based) which includes a plug and play adapter on ebay. Did a small test with a Noid Light on the troubled injectors and all seems good, so they are pulsing properly electrically. One weird part is that they are missing on the same two cylinders as before I got the injectors cleaned. Mechanic also found this weird as he did not label the injectors and it is unlikely to have the faulty injectors be installed in the same cylinders.
