Avcr Into Single Din Pocket With Lid

[Tough R34]

Is it an AVC-R? It seems to me that it a few mm too big to fit in there. I've got mine where the ashtray was but obviously that's not out of sight.

My PFC hand controller just floats around and ends up under the passenger seat a lot. Maybe you could do that. The cord is long. Maybe have some mount that it easily slips out of then you can slip it under the seat or into the glove box whenever you need to.

Some people like sticking it on the underside of the sun visor. Pretty neat i'd say..

[shif_tea]

you can do it, i've seen it done a few times and planned to do it myself, abo bob is right, its a little to big to fit in so you have to cut a hole in the top of the din pocket and slide the avcr down into it. I made it work but never got around to fitting it. I've left it in my glovebox (also to hide it). Too much of a hassle cause i have double din headunit and can't be bothered buying a new one.

Yeah i've done it (but the sin din pocket with Lid is from a X-trial, becoz r33's dun come with em standard)

With lid closed

With lid open to adjust boost settings and check max boost reached

1. The Avc-r will fit BUT its too tall for the pocket so you gotta make a hole in the pocket to have a bit of the avc-r sticking out, BUT as you can see once its all in it fits perfectly you don't miss out any of the screen and it doesn't hit the air-con or cd player.

2. So start CUTTING! hahaha

Good Luck!

Nice one. Pity I already put a couple of gauges there.

now im spewn, i bought an orig r34 pocket & the lid only goes 3qtrs down. i hope it wont be too hard to fit.

i do like the sunvisor idea.

Gtshortie - thanks for the pics

why dont u try putting it in the pocket under the headlight adjustment......u no wat im talkin about yeh?>??

cant explain it very well but its like right next to the steering wheel on the right.

[nsanity]

according to the engineer when i had my car certified, technically the AVCR is legal, as all it does it slightly alter the amount of boost you get. The same effect can be given (albiet to a lesser extent) by driving in Blue Mountains one day, and Sydney the next (elevation / air temp) apparently.

[are33]

Why do you have to hide it from the police?

[Tough R34]

well i got a canary for it when i got pulled over. They said that you are unable to have any adjustment to the emissions control of the car. and a boost control does that. "apparently".

any excuse to stop imports from allowing there full potential. in victoria.

Sorry guys i forgot to say that my lid only opened 3/4 as well, BUT someone accidently dropped something from the windscreen and it broke the lid off so now i've got velcor holding the lid on.

[AlexCim]

why do you have to see it anyway?

fit it, tune it and slap it somewhere in the dash underneath...or is there something you need to play around with a lot?

[Tough R34]

its good to see the boost peak, to make sure there's no spiking.

also once its tuned ill have 3 settings, low-mid-hi.

i know what u mean as i never change it now, but once its tuned it will probly be changed a few times. at the set of lights next to my mate in his wrx or when i take it down the qtr mile etc.........

[R34NRG]

someone should find out the exact law that we are breaking by haven a boost controller displayed on the dash.....bs i rkn
