Hi ya everyone,

After struggling for ages with my job not paying me, my mrs (THE LEGEND) told me last night that she would lend me money to get a car. This morning I rang her and told her I was viewing one this afternoon and by 5.30 I had bought her. She's a little rough around the edges and will be tidied up in the incoming months. In Ireland I've owned a spec 2 R33 for years but have missed her over this past 2 years, and unable to wait another 6 months to get the cash to import! Finally back on the road boys! I'm in Southport at the minute so i'll be looking out for any meets near at hand. Hopefully get the rego this week and have her at archiefield in the next few weeks. See ya's around, Stevie :thumbsup:

Southport hey?

Did THE LEGEND lend you enough cash for comprehensive insurance and immobiliser?

+1 - think that car needs to make a trip to brissy first up to see me..

I already know of a silver GTR owner that go the hell scared out of him when his car was hot wired in 20 sec and ALMOST driven off last sat morning. it wont take much trust me.

Thanks for the posts lads. Defari, in County Armagh mate, a little town called tandragee. She has an immob already installed and hopefully getting insurance today. How much on ave is the 3rd party insurance vs the fully comp? Feels great to be back in the driving seat again.

    • Don't turn down the limit yet. Put a mechanical pressure gauge on the car in the same spot and go and prove it.
    • I've done a few BMS systems. Code in Canada use to force us to have any safety components outside of the PLC but with a code change back in 2018 I believe it was, we can now use safety PLC's to control everything. Sadly to your point, AB Guardlogix safety instructions for example are only available in ladder.  Machine safety is a very big thing here though, you're constantly forced to migrate to the next best thing by OSHA. I honestly prefer safety plc's, including anything from AB more then I do working with old school safety monitoring relays. PLC is only one portion of it, the rest of the electrical still has to follow to meet SIL (Mechanically linked dual contacts, bla bla)  Now tell me how to feel about safety over comm's (e.g Ethernet/IP CIP) on a unmaintained network haha
    • To your point, boolean logic. We're not only working with bools in ecu's, so it's very limiting. I wanted to setup a low WMI pressure alarm. After 1 second I want WMI line to hit 100PSI, 2 seconds 175PSI, etc. and trigger an alarm if it doesn't meet those thresholds. This would of taken me one very short line of text, but instead I had to bugger around with generic timers, conditions, etc. and so forth.
    • I much prefer that to an actual oil pressure issue, never would of thought it would of been a volt drop issue but SAU brains win again. Guess ill be turning down the oil pressure limit for the track and hunting some grounds. Ill hopefully update this thread with some high oil pressure and solid ecu voltage logs. 
    • You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster.
