anyone in sydney on the list who would like to pickup display (from blacktown) on the weekend (if one is ready for you) send me a PM with your mobile/phone number (and optionally your home address) and mention youd like to pickup if its available on weekend, and supply rough time you would be available over weekend.

yep you're down for blue screen. everyone on the list has been contacted now for payment (and i think ive notified everyone who's been removed from the list after i didnt get any response from them in previous pm's). over 30 have been sent already (took two big bags down to postbox today)

yes it will. there is a ticket open on the feature/bug tracker to add ability to save the trip statistics. it would probably be a third screen (so 2 trip ones, one showing current trip, and one showing all trips) that shows your total recorded trips.

reason why it hasnt been done yet is that trip data would need to be saved to EEPROM, which only can be written to a limited number of times, and the display doesnt know when you will turn off the car. so need to do some tricky wear levelling to spread the writes to EEPROM out over the fully spare eeprom, and to only update the trip data every say 30s.

but yeh i really want this feature myself too so will try to get it done when this first batch is sold and i have time to work on it.

Got mine today as well many thanks.

did realise you were part of group buy, so ive refunded the difference between individual website price and that for the group buy (and updated your details on list to show youre from sau)

Oh ok, thanks. I was just happy to receive it didn't even question the price :)

fyi a user just found that 0-160 and 400m time trials are mixed up (so to do 400m u need to choose 0-160) this will be fixed in 2.01 firmware probably within the week

skylines (r32 at least, not sure about r33/r34) are lucky they have that little dip on top of the center console, good mounting position!

by now everyone who has expressed interest (up until and including 23/8, ie sat night) has been contacted for payment etc. contact me if you thought you had but i havent pm'ed you. anyone else after one will get payment details etc immediately until the rest of this batch is gone. have sent out around half of them so far (a bit under 50)

I installed my display this weekend - I've found the visibility of the blue screen to be perfectly fine for daytime driving but only without sunglasses - still better than I expected.

Thanks NewKleer!

    • Nothing wears "the most". Different cars will always show signs in a different place. 114000 km is either nothing at all (as in, given the calendar age, nearly brand new) or it's completely unbelievable. We stopped believing numbers like that about 15 years ago. Having said that, my car is up around 270000 km and I have put bushes into some places** as many as 10 times in >25 years that I've owned it. ** FUCAs, which are different on an R32 than on a 33, so not likely to be the same issue for you. I have original ball joints all the way around. They are perfectly fine. Same with the spindle bearings in the front. Tie rod ends have all been done at least once though. Pretty much every other bush in the car has been done at least twice. Some of those in the first 100000km after I got it (which was at a genuine 23000!). Some of those bushes are now sphericals, and they are on a <cough> regular maintenance schedule, hence why my FUCAs have been rebuilt so many times. Half of those 10 in the count above would be in the last few years! 'twere I you, I would budget on replacing everything, for fun and prevention. If they really are 30 year old rubber, they will all be unpleasantly aged in one way or another. Whether that's corrosion of shells, or the rubber cracking, or sagging under the load, etc etc.
    • Tighten until it starts to get loose again, then back off 1/4 turn?
    • Do them as you'll find when you remove them they are perished/dried.    Its probably one of the best things to do as makes the car so much more responsive. Do ball joints while there too.
    • Hi All Got an R33, about 114,000km on the clock.  Handles very nice, no signs of issues.    Engine is out and i'm doing an underbody refresh, mainly painting subframe, cosmetics etc. Can't see anything physically giving play, but I'm wondering which bushes are the ones that wear the most, or the first ones that may give problems down the track? For good measure I'm thinking to fit new ones. Thanks
    • This post has OUTER tie rod torque spec - what about INNER tie rod torque spec??? Cannot find this info ANYWHERE.
