    Thanks Birds, there was a lot of steering with throttle haha. Might make a dash kit or something one day but it's a lot of work. 

    Can you give a rundown of how you made it? Pretty keen to learn how to do it.

    Might do a write up one day. Basically, i gutted out the cluster and put in an arduino mega2560, this handles frequency counting for RPM and speed, analogue digital conversions for boost, fuel, water, oil pressure etc. I did a lot of data logging to work out the conversion from voltages into temps,pressures. The arduino sends the data to a raspberry pi 3 which has a script i wrote using python which basically collects the serial data from the arduino and moves needles, displays numbers. Took about 6 months because i didn't know anything about python or raspberry pis before this.

    Yeah holy crap what is that dash? Looks nice, like the golf GTI / R option. 

    Layouts were good, only one I didn't like was back one where we went up to an area with gutters then back down, 80% ran I bashed my front lip on a stock height car so some of the lowered ones wouldn't of liked it either :D Would of bit into the timed runs a bit too for those wanting to take some sympathy on their cars ?

    It's based on a lexus LFA. Made from scratch using raspberry pi and 7" 720p lcd screen. Uses the stock sensors + a few more i've added like techedge AFR and IAT.

    Impressive driving man - that some nice countersteering

    Do hit me up if you ever part ways with that dash...

  3. Day started nearly an hour late and slow recovery. Probably cost at least an entire full session for everyone...

    And there was other issues with some guys going 100% while course was under yellow's on more than one occasion, having shit like that come flying up behind you mid-corner isn't intelligent and very, very dangerous... People need to use some brains.

    But that aside Circuit Club ran a good day, am very thankful all sessions were timed - good move that one. Some guys mention issue with traffic but I didn't have many drama's. I was fast enough that if I went out last, the guys that went out first wouldn't quite catch me. It wouldn't have been the same if I was 5-10 sec slower though.

    So thumbs up from my corner! Would attend again.

    Although I didn't make as good use as I should've due to exhaust gasket blowout which then fell off entirely on way home. Fixed it yesty and turned out the other side had *juuuust* started to come lose as well.

    I suspect class A-C was more consistent. I was in class D where there was a big variation in laptimes anywhere from 1:48 to 2:00. Lead to overtaking almost every lap. Wasn't too bad once i queued up towards the front of the dummy grid.

  4. Please contact me by PM. I'm located in SE melbourne (Mulgrave) and would prefer pickup.

    Low mount exhaust manifold. Never used. I trial fitted this to my car and can confirm the flanges are flat, the pipes clear the engine/rocker cover (2 major pitfalls of cheap manifolds). Bought off ebay from "the one group (TOG)". 2.8mm wall thickness according to the listing (i'm not willing to cut it open to measure) $180

    Comes with gaskets for both flanges. Comes with bolts for the T3 flange.

  5. I got a 2IU highflow with CNC compressor wheel. Its response is pretty close to stock (You'll never beat stock response).

    Boost spike in my graphs is from using stock actuator and trying to reach 14psi. Even with blocked boost signal stock actuator only holes 12.6psi. Got a very linear 224rwkw.

  6. Did this myself too. I used easy out style screw extractors. I initially used freeze spray to help free the stud but that seemed to lock them tighter. I used a heatgun and that helped a little bit. (the thermal expansion of aluminium is greater than steel)post-2214-0-33352600-1337608975_thumb.jpg
