thanks for the feedback.

I spoke to him this morning about the alternate comments on the way the fuel economy gauge would work.

The good news is that we will be able to make and selectable option when ordered. This way you can see the information the way you prefer.

The bad news it will cost you double

NAH.............LOL :D

Just kidding.

It will be a selectable option but there should not be any extra cost.

Cheers

Andy

Nobby, we don't know each other, not that it's at all relevant. We're all busy here, in our own way - perhaps some more so than others. Regardless, we've all taken the time to do the same homework th

His plans are that there will be 2 discs;

Disc 1, will install and produce a unique code that will show on the screen.

That number gets sent to the developer and within 24 hours a the final disc will be ready to download.

Disc 2 is a unique version with the serial number produced from disc 1, encripted in the 2nd disc.

that is the theory, waiting to see the final product.

Hmm good luck with that, I still don't see how that would stop it getting used in other cars, unless there is some unique ID stored in the car computer somewhere but I don't see why they would bother?

Sorry... I mean, "Awesome, there is no way in the world that won't stop piracy, do we get the update tomorrow?!" :D

Exactly what I was thinking.

That method doesnt make sense at all. There will be a torrent of both cds available... simple

The only thing they can do to protect themselves is do one massive groupbuy... which im sure we can make happen, if only they agree.

Yeh, I sorta agree. Installing a unique ID in the car with the 1st disc and outputting that code on the screen to be supplied & encrypted into the software for 2nd disc, alone would not be enough to prevent duplicate installs.

The 1st disc would have to contain instructions that direct the software to create a unique ID based on something that is unique to each car... maybe a serial number of the ROM or some other part of the internal car comp? We can only guess :D

As for the reason why they bother... simple - $$$ The more downloads/registrations they get, the fatter their bank account gets. If we made copies available for free, well...

Had a thought (I know... rare) while on the freeway today.

I have no issue with the L/100 switch, but what if the numbers on the side were lower L/100 at the top with the higher L/100 on the bottom?

The leaf could then go from red (bottom = poor economy) to green (top = good economy).

Would make more sense and display in a way that we can instantly relate to.

maybe you should be bothered reading 20 pages.

I don't think that price has been specified as yet...

can't be bothered... ahhh that is so nice...!

We might not be bothered responding to your questions...

:P

has the forums format changed for anyone? i cant seem to view more than a few pages now, 4 max...:S im trying to get to page 20 but its just a whole list of replies in this topic and i have to select one reply by one.

Sounds like you accidentally switched your "Display Mode" to "Outline". Change back to "Standard" view and you should be right... if my guess is correct.

In the Top right-hand corner of this thread you should see "Options" pull-down menu. Click on this and select Display Modes ---> Switch to: Standard.

      Oil pan for RB25DET NEO Stagea "version"

      That is what I took from it too. Needed to go AWD S14 imo.

      Im really confused if that's what he's trying to say. (brain hurts, sitting in darkened room staring at too many computer monitors right now...)   So he's saying during his build, they modified the oil pan, and instead of taking photos to show us how he had to do it, he posted a link elsewhere to a video, and now wants us to tell him the right pan he could swap to, or a custom/aftermarket pan he could use instead?   Kapr, is that YouTube channel yours / that video yours?

      I think both of you missed the actual point of the thread and question asked by Kapr: The video is just an example and not his channel.

      Clickbait title, made it sound like you wanted information, instead you just wanted free views on your YouTube channel.   No issue doing that, but instead of making new topics, create a build thread, and you can post the YouTube videos in there. Added to it, people can then build further discussion around your build.   This sort of creation of a topic like you have is like what scammers and spammers do on other websites like FB "oh look at this cool thing, just click this link and go elsewhere". Prank doesn't need to pay the fees when a google hit finds your topic and someone is looking for that info, just for that person to be immediately driven away to a larger platform that doesn't support the enthusiasts here.

      I don't know if @MBS206was suggesting that you were trying to drive traffic to your/a Youtube channel, but what is certainly clickbait about that video is that the content is sorta....non-content. Because, we (ie, established RB engine savvy people) all know that the pan rails are different between RWD and AWD RB blocks and that there are long known solutions for fitting AWD blocks into RWD chassis, etc etc. I mean, like Matt, I didn't even bother to watch the video.
