scary stuff

Measure More of Your Car's Performance. The AVG-VDP1 is Pioneer's Solution for Performance-Minded Automobile Enthusiasts.

Most new vehicles come equipped with an in-dash speedometer and tachometer, but are they enough? ( :dry: ) The Pioneer AVG-VDP1 Vehicle Dynamics Processor takes car performance analytics to the next level. The unit detects a wide range of real-time vehicle performance data — including acceleration, lateral G-forces, estimated horsepower, and torque, in addition to speed and RPM. Additionally, the GPS locator provides current vector information, as well as current location by longitude, latitude, altitude, and distance to destination. The unit displays the results on a connected Pioneer Audio/Video monitor — with smart, full-color graphics that add style to the dashboard.

The manual is a laugh too...

In the following cases, the indications of this unit are different from the actual value:

- Speedometer, accelerometer and horse-power meter do not work properly when the vehicle is wheel-spinning.

- Tiltmeter does not work properly when the vehicle is accelerating with the wheel-spinning.

- Lateral accelerometer does not work properly while the vehicle is donut-turning or power-sliding.

no good in a drift car then, eh?...

that movie sucked ass big time. a complete ripoff of Point Break. when i watched f&f and saw the floorpan falling on the road and the sound of nuts and bolts shooting everywhere, three words came to my head- WTF. Way too many movie mistakes to list too. and here i am thinking Swamp Thing was a bad movie LOL!!!

i too thought it was point break with cars... i didnt mind it though...

Far out Ed, I can't believe I never made the connection!

I wonder which badass sub-culture will be the next Point Break remake? Maybe underground skateboard clubs. :thumbsup:

20 minutes into the movie i thought "what a ripoff!" and all those quotes and phrases, hahahah! i dont think anyone really talks like that. except for yanks.

the next subcultured theme will be for horse riders i think.

"how much horesepower you runnin?"

"uhhhh, one?"

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
