Does your laptop have a serial port? (COM1 or COM2)? Because you need it!

I use the last one, but feel free to download and install them all

The best software is : http://home.iprimus.com.au/tkolo/datascan.htm

But you need to pay $25. Sponsor me? lol

Only got the last two programs... I have two laptops at home; one is huge and the other one is tiny.

The huge one has a range of plugs... it's got the really big one (wide) and one that is half its length (short).

The small one only has the short plug. If this is the com port... I will bring the smaller laptop as its more convenient. Could you please put a pic up?

Small Laptop has the VGA Port only (well it looks like it)

Big Laptop has both VGA and LPT 1 Port

Please advise d00dz

Stan: Sorry for not posting, you mentioned you were going to be asking for help and I didn't even see it..

Was in talks with stan to help him do his oil change, and was thinking of doing mine at the same time - so i'm hoping that if I bring some beer + oil - we can have an alcohol fuelled oil change eh!..

on a serious note - I was planning on doing this next weekend anyways by myself however stan asked me to help, and we think it'd be good to have some pro's there..

Keep us updated with the location/plan - hopefully somewhere on the north shore.

I'll bring a case.. probably just gonna do oil + filter..

also where can I get the oil filter from and which one is it? i'll be putting in motul 4100 - most of you guys recommended it - 5w40 I believe, which is quite thin when cold, however should be good for the turbo when doing cold starts..

Hope to see you there..

also - where's the dyno day.. wouldn't mind seeing wht my car does @ the wheels..

Links

Also - stan i'd say that you'll need a laptop with the serial port - vga is for your video .. that or the parallel.. but i'm pretty sure the serial should be right..

also - where can I get a consult cable from - atleast a home made jobby..

cheers,

Links

Cheers Link! Yeah everyone, there is now at least 3 cases of beer up for grabs on the day - that's a lot of bloody beer! Someone's got to want this (I feel like I'm doing an auction here)

Links - the consult cable is being provided by d00dz... I think he got it from Nissan? The dyno day is next Saturday @ OCAU, PM d00dz for more details - top guy, he'll give you all the details!

I got the consult cable from newkleer, it was $75. Works well with laptop, if you have a serial cable. Stan you can borrow it as long as you give it back to Ed when your finished.

I wont be able to make it next Sunday as im working from 10-6.

As for the dyno its organised by OCAU (Overclockers Australia) @ DAT. PM me for more info.

Need a taker on this offer... Links and I need your help :P Ideally it will happen next Sunday - only day where everyone is really free!

As soon as a date and place is set, I'll go shopping for the cold drinks :D

I'm still weighing up what i'll do.. if i'm heading to the Dyno Day.. I might hold off on an oil change - I know - would make sense to do it first (maybe.. - only done 2,500kms on the current oil)..

If I don't head there - i'll def be doing an oil change.. either with help.. or by myself.. just jack it up.. unscrew the screws.. drain the oil.. put back together.. refill.. and voila.. oil change..

do people recommend flushing with mineral oil? to clean it out, make sure there is no blockages..

anyways - regardless of whether I do mine or not, def want to be there.. i'll post up later this week what i'm up to..

Stan does needs help though..

Links 4100 is a pretty cheap arse oil. I'd go for the 8100 or even if you are dead keen and love the thought of nice oil circulating through your engine get some 300V Chrono. that's what i use. it's nice stuff. even smells good.

whatever you decide best to stick to it once you start.

Mr Ed and Steve seem to be the only two who have their place on offer at the moment.

Could you two please provide a suitable date for this get together? Preferrably a Sunday...

Also, please state the choice of alcohol you would like to be paid in :D Remember, it's one case for the people who work on the car, and another for the person who offers the place!

man im easy... pretty much any sunday soon.....

Its not really my place but a couple of dead end streets with no one around... good sunlight...

cimg07144xs.th.jpg

hows this look everyone? good for some photos too :D

How far east is east? And correction, the North is still the best!

Haha, from the photo it looks like Alexandria / Zetland?

Before I give the green light and start selling tickets to this MAIN EVENT, are there any other takers from the North? Anyone?

Ok so it's now from the North to the East *we're still the best* :D

Ed - Choose your beer, choose your time!

Everyone else, umm, you'll have to ask Ed if he'll let you spectate LOL.

You've got everything right Ed? Hey d00dz, now that its in the east you can come too!

    • who can tell me what this is and why my car talks to me? i think it's hilarious. it's on my r34 right above the drivers-side storage compartment. the characters under the wrench say "inspection". every 10 or 20 startups, a voice starts talking in japanese from some speaker in this area below the dashboard. it says a few sentences then shuts off. different from the ETC card reader voice that happens every time i start the car. I've never found the speaker, i've never been able to catch the voice and translate what it says, and i've never found a forum thread that tells me how to reset the warnings. the holes in between the symbols are NOT buttons you can press to reset the warnings. anyone else have this? has the demon lord from Hereditary infected my car?!
    • Would you ever vent this bonnet or will it be unnecessary?
    • Happy new years folks! Wishing you all a successful year of money pit ownership!  So the subframe bushes are out....   Ok, who else has done that job before??  What a C U Next Tuesday of a job that is!  Be glad to not do that again in a hurry! I think I explored every option available to chop the middle section of the bushes out, most of them unsuccessfully! I tried a holesaw, die grinder, normal drill bit, air chisel, etc, etc. The true success happened by accident when I'd decided to try a step drill I spotted on the bench on the way passed.  See, there are benefits to never cleaning up after yourself! It RIPPED through so so much better than the drill bit. It has to be the skinniest one available so its small enough to fit between the inner tube and outer casing but it made easy work of it.  First one i hammered the shit out of... New method- 20250102_185506.mp4   I did the other 5 in less time than I fluffed around with the first one. With the first couple I used the cut off saw (sawsall as the yanks love to call them) to cut a break in the outer casings. Even with that they're still a prick to hammer or air chisel out.  The last few i just went rambo with the air chisel without cutting them. I over cut one of the early ones so will hit the with the mig to fill the cut then sand it off smooth.  The carnage left over-   I've also been "nesting" ie, cleaning up my babies nursery,  ie cleaning the f**king pig sty of a shed. I've got that much shit laying around it's as cluttered as my head!  Getting things put away, in boxes, on shelves, hanging off walls, all to get some working space back again.  Hopefully that keeps me motivated....
    • AFAIK does the base map for Haltech even have the 4D compensation enabled? It's been a while but when I looked at it I remember it was actually using pure TPS as one load signal and MAP for another. Seemed workable but not ideal by any stretch. A lot of people have "make the event-itis" which leads to stuff like this happening.
