Well as the heading says I'm leaving VIC... sold my house over the weekend and moving to the other side of the country... to Cairns!!! Lived here for 20 years+ and the time has come for a change. The reality has kind of hit me this morning, it is a farking huge move! One of the main reasons I am heading so far North, is my sister, her husband, my niece and mum live in Port Douglas, so it will be good to be able see them more often (we all know how important family are :D ) all the bullshit with the VIC Government / cops / EPA etc, helped me make my choice of not buying another house here, although it has been a hard one. SAU VIC is really kicking along now and I wish all the guys and girls I've met could come with me hehehe, but I'm sure there are plenty of 'lines up there too? I know there are bloody awesome places to cruise... like along the Coral Coast, upto Kuranda, through the Table Lands etc... so if anyone is planning on a trip up North be sure to contact me and you'll have some free accomodation! I don't leave until the first week of April, so I will still be at the next couple of meetings and DEFINATLEY not missing the Great Ocean Road cruise - that will be great! I won't be leaving the forums either and I've already spoken to a few guys in Cairns that are active members here... so those of you who are gonna be at the next meetings and the GOR cruise, I'll see you then, otherwise on the forums as a Queenslander HAHAHA!

Cheers everyone!!! :D:D :headspin:

Hey Lukas - we have a place up in Cairns (Clifton Beach) and I must say I think it's the best place in Oz. My long term goal is to move up there.

Due to other committments I don't know if I can make it up there this year although with flights up there so damn cheap I might even come up just for a weekend or something. (Got an email from Jetstart this am offering flight to Cairns 1 way for $69)

hehe.. another one leaves.. I wouldn't say all the road b/s was the only reason i left either, but it was a factor. I mean if you like your cars and driving and that is what you like to do to enjoy your spare time - why live in nazi victoria weren't you can't enjoy it as much?

good one bracks, another one down.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      From there it is trickier. Ecutek seems to be one of those closed ecosystems where everyone password protects their tunes which means I either choose a tuner and can't change from them and can't make any changes myself for any reason, or I have to buy the tuning software (about $4k) and then get someone to tune from scratch (which is not simple with all the multi dimensional tables these days). Once you buy about 300 "flash points" per ECU you can get it tuned and add their "RaceROM" function which hacks extra functionality like launch control onto the ECU, and also makes extra data available for logging over CAN Not sure what I'll do there yet; I'm tempted to use one of the overseas shops that does billions of remote tunes of the platform instead of starting from scratch locally, a lot can be done online these days.

      Can I log IAT eh? Well, can now So next thing was looking at data logging. Not straight forward because none of the motorsport displays have cracked the nissan/inifinti CAN and ECU based displays don't do g logging, lap timing, predictive laps etc.  So, I bought an Ecutek dongle from Tunehouse (Oz distributor). Even without a tune onboard that allows display and logging of about 50 parameters via Android (and presumably iOS) app. Approx 600 for the bluetooth + Usb version That gives me (pretty ugly but) functional dash display on Android And logging of these parameters I'll play around a bit over the break, but at least now I can make sure I have oil pressure when I get to some track testing.

      R33 headlight relay conversion?

      By Duncan · Posted

      I don't know what globes/headlight connector they run, but I'd be looking for a female adapter to plug into the existing headlight on one side. Something like this https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/256017245989 Then I'd use a pair of single input, double output relays (one for low, one for high), mount them in a spare space in the fuse box if you want to to look more original (and be easier to maintain). Then 2 new power sources from the main stud in the fuse box via a fuse to each relay. Low from the headlight adapter pin triggers low relay and high from the high headlight adapter pin triggers high and low. Earth the relays and new headlight sockets and off you go. Because it triggers off the original headlight all of the dipping/hi on/high flash all still works
