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

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...

or if they're open to someone setting themselves up as a distibutor.

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

lol

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.

    • Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020
    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now. 
    • You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought. 
    • Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.
    • So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣
