I just checked on line again and was trilled to see the response. I'm new to car cruise thing but would love to meet up with anyone skylines or what. I'm not really worried about the age thing but it would be good to have some older than 20. if you know what i mean. if you want to organise a weekend drive somewhere that would be great. is it too cold for a BBQ? Any suggestions would be good. we can start and work something out....

I don't think you'll find age is too much of an issue on most of the things SAU does, as there are a few different age groups out there. We try and stay clear of the "fulsik" brigade..

Good to hear that we can have good days without the "fulsik". What ever that is but I have an idea. But I'm looking forward to meeting new people and having some great weekends out cruising..we will try and work out a day and everyone can come. please help out..

Jas, I'm the events co-ordinator for the qld skyline club and we've got a pretty full events calendar over the next few months so feel free to organise a cruise on behalf of the forum members. But just be made aware, that people are a bit hesitant to attend a cruise organised by someone they don't know. So get out there and attend events and become known amongst the chumps.

As people have stated above, build it and they will come. No point having heaps of people sitting here saying they want crusies/meets if no ones willing to put their hand up and take charge :rofl:

Bribie sound nice, and I dont think we've been out there for a cruise, lots of nice big parks over there, depending on where you want to go.

And it is dead simple to organise a cruise:

1. State meet point and time. Meet point should be easily found by people who are not locals to it, ie Yatala BP, Morayfield BP, etc etc.

2. Figure out a route, and keep it simple.

3. Have a CB or handheld radio on the day to be able to hear what is going on behind/infront of you.

4. State length and what people will need to bring with them, ie food/chairs/warm clothes/etc.

And then turn up! easy!

Ska, Thanks for that advice. I will sort out some dates and start getting things organised. Looks like we have to get a hand held radio. Seems like it would be the easiest way to keep track if there is a few of us.

Tell me! How old are you really???? lol

I hope that you can make the cruise when it happens.

    • Ok interesting i guess ill wait till using a manual gauge before making assumptions.
    • Not in any way a logical conclusion. Also, looking at those logs, I struggle to see how that much oil pressure can go away that fast unless you are sucking air into the pickup. Meanwhile the ECU voltage is chucking a huge wobbly which seems to be tied to the throttle position. 100% throttle results in decreasing voltage. It's a mess.
    • So didn't get around to installing a manual oil pressure gauge and then decided to take the car for a cruisey drive to a cars and coffee and brought the laptop along with to get another log using more gears to see if its an oil pressure issue under acceleration or after. this log has 3 gears of WOT where as previous had 2 and the oil pressure dropped once on the brakes, and the same again happens here which is interesting as it shows it can hold oil pressure while under acceleration but once slowing or just the lower RPM after a pull pressure drops. I will be chucking a manual oil pressure gauge on to confirm but so far this makes me feel it is not an electrical issue. Something else i realised is the pressure sensor also is giving temperature information and the temp stays steady the whole time which makes me feel like the sensor itself is showing a true pressure reading.
    • LOL.... fk...   there goes 25K to make 200kW
    • 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?)...
