On my way to an induction for my plumbing course this morning, driving along the eastern freeway at about 1:00pm I saw an Marone R33 rolled on its side. I was traveling inbound and it was on my side of the road. Scared the hell out of me. Looked like a pretty bad crash, i hope no one was hurt. Anyone know who it was?

lets not assume that it was because the person was speeding or doing something stupid straight away until more info has been given on the subject. hopefully it was due to the heavy bashing we got from the rain and not stupidity, unfortunate none the less

yeah i travelled down eastern at about 3:15pm today, and a 200sx [early model] took to the corner of the bridge strut... [large concrete square that suppotrs the bridge...] and yeah passenger side was crushed in, entire wriet off... saw the ambo there and they were just leaving as i rolled past....

hope its no one from here, or anyone they know...

the 200 was a dark green in color, couldn't see plates they look normal [as in vic roads]

i saw that too on my way home..didnt see any concrete though. i saw all the passenger side crushed and a massive FOR SALE 04XX XXX XXX on the rear window. looked like a bad crash and i hope no one was seriously injured

having seen so many crashes, i know once i get my skyline i will definately be a safe driver. If i didnt have to go to that induction i wouldnt have it was just to dangerous. I came straight home, didnt beat around the bush at all.

mate all i can say is, mine might be stock and i even had troubles keeping traction till 3rd sometimes 4th gear and this is shifting at 2500-2700 each time... mind u only thing i got is a pod, bov and suspension [shitty] but its better than stock...

    • So recently at the track had experienced a loss of throttle after a period of WOT after installing the emtron ecu, recently did some logging to troubleshoot the issue and found the ECU was cutting due to a low oil pressure issue. Going over the log can see that while accelerating at 4k rpm will see 100 PSI of pressure and holding steady at that level until getting off the throttle which then after can see as low as 25 PSI at 3-4k rpm and will recover back to a normal level after that.   Wondering if anyone has an idea what could be the cause as it just feels abit strange and i dont feel like it could be a sensor issues just due to it clearly sitting at a good pressure until off throttle, in the attached can see a 3rd and 4th gear pull but can even perform great through 3 and 4 gears of WOT but still once off throttle and getting back on it will see pressure drop.
    • There are a few different ways of doing it. I'm currently running two 1000cc pre-TB nozzles and PWM the pump for control. I'll be moving over to a constant pressure system and direct port. I'll run the pump off a regular relay, have it cycle on roughly 5psi before I start injecting to build pressure and then PWM a WMI solenoid (It's basically an injector that can take a lot of pressure and not corrode with water and meth.) The solenoid feeds the 6 direct port ~200cc nozzles. I'll also keep one ~250cc pre-TB nozzle to help keep IAT's in check.  Safety will be a little different as well. I used to use a pressure switch but will be moving over to a pressure sensor between my solenoid and nozzles. I'll trigger my solenoid and if I don't see specific pressure within a specific timeframe (e.g 100psi within a second, 175psi within 2 seconds), I kill it and revert back to non WMI maps the same way I did it before with 4D in Haltech. I was just figuring out the timers in my ecu last night. They made that a little more complicated than I would have liked... I wish Haltech offered a larger set of logic/math functions like other ecu's do. I can't do very much with just AND's and OR's.  I've been asked to do fuel/ignition mapping on a medium bore engine at work in May (192L V16). Being the only programmer in my region and having went and opened my mouth about knowing the ins and outs of fuel/ignition mapping, I have now been deemed an expert. Fun fun. The entirety of the logic and algorithms are programmed in C on a PLC. As I spend more time figuring it all out, I like what I see and eventually I may consider doing the same as a pet project to replace my ecu.   
    • This would be interesting, would you feed it via a 2nd row of injectors? Or just usual WMI nozzles?
    • Cut sump up and extend. Win win 😂 
    • All, What's the recommended torque for the 1/2 head studs for RB30 twin cam conversion with RB26 head?
