I just got a new alarm with inbuilt turbo timer so the TT I had in the car when I bought it was cut out.

It is an apexi turbo timer

Does anyone know what the wires are?

I have

Red

Green

Blue

Yellow

and Black wires.

if i extend these wires and label them should I be able to sell it? or is it a throw away item? It worked perfectly in the car when it was installed

as far as i know it should be ok as each one of those wire will connect to a wire somewhere.. all u need to do is extend them, so its not a throw away (unless theres a sensor or something to that extent that has been cut off but i wouldnt think so on a TT)

usually red is 12v and black is earth and id imagine the other 2 would tap into the ignition somewhere

Thanks for that - no sensors or anything, just dont have a harness as it was hard wired into my setup.

Any idea on what its worth? Not sure if it is genuine apexi or just apexi style - looks pretty good to me.

    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
