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!

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
