well pred i think its advertised so that u dont' have to reach over the dash if u wanna up the boost a little ... say u just driving along .. then u want that bit of extra boost or whatever .. u dont' have to move and press the button on the steering wheel .. a good idea i think .. but expensive nonetheless .. :devil:

INASNT - if you buy one, take a pic of the type of plug they use cause it'll also fit into my Profec A.

If I can buy the plug - I think it's just a normal 2 or 3 pin 3.5mm plug - I'll make my own, as I just found out last night I can launch much better in low boost compared to high boost !!!

So I'll hook up a mirco switch to first gear :devil:

Cheers

Cool - yepp, I thought it may have been a 3.5mm one. I saw the hole in the back of the A while I was puting it in :D

Oh, how's this - the A has in and out com ports too !! Don't think I'll EVER use them !!!

Do you know if it's a 2, 3 or 4 terminal type? You know how the mono plugs are 2, the stero are 3, and now Nokia has a 4 terminal type they use on some phones.....

Dude bit exspensive for it tho ey? Its like $200 from memory (correct me if i'm wrong) but for that i seems a little pricey considering you can set up a missile switch on a bleed vale for like 20 bucks to have ya high n low settings in cabin ( i know it aint ebc but ya get the drift lol). Jus seems a bit of a waste when ya could spend that money on somethin else.

Hmmm,

Had a look into this last night.

The switch is wireless !!

You plug a module into the back of your EBC, and then strap the botton to your wheel... NO WIRES BETWEEN THEM!!!

The switch talks to the module via RF. So I've got a funny feeling that it won't be a matter of just shorting two wires to flick between boost levels - it'd be more likely that it's modulated or done via a data stream :)

Hence the price too !!

The unit looks nice, and would come in handy. That extra button could be used for NOS, a line locker, or even better launch control !!!!

    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )
    • 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.
