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!

    • Update 2: Today I'm f**king pissed. Some of you probably saw my thread that I opened shortly after joining this forum, "urgently need expert/experienced opinion", in which I discussed the possibility of a porous RB26 engine block which I also found hard to believe. Currently both turbos are out since the shitty braided line that was installed by whoever fitted the GT28 turbos leaked oil onto the exhaust. Today while working on the cam covers to put new gaskets and half moons in, I cleaned the side of the engine block with brake cleaner. Some time later I saw that it was still glistening with oil or coolant so I dried that off. But it was wet again shortly after. Verdict: I'm royally screwed. What you can see here (hopefully, despite shit resolution), circled in red, is a crack above the turbo oil feed. Extent is a few cm long and basically goes from #3 cylinder wall to #4 cylinder wall. It slowly lets coolant through, even without any pressure behind it. I am absolutely dumbfounded as to how this crack even formed, especially since it isn't along the cylinder as it usually is but rather a horizontal crack. Probably a few cm in length. Not sure on how to deal with this issue right now. Most likely, the only true fix is a new engine block, and even a relatively well done temporary fix requires at least a full engine teardown. Neither of those really fit my timetable right now, the car has been in my buddy's garage long enough as it is. I'm open to suggestions, but I'll be looking into ordering a new 05U block soon so I have one ready for the coming year, or whenever the current block inevitably fails fully. (Most likely once the crack reaches one of the frost plugs) I think it'd be a waste of money and time to rebuild the engine with this block. Oh and I found a rust hole on the side pocket of the trunk, which someone covered up with sealant goop, a piece of number plate and bodywork filler. Fun times. So far for every issue we fix we just find a new one that is arguably worse.
    • I have not found this no. I put one back on a couple days ago with no drama. I agree they are tight, but no need to remove anything. 
    • That is gates blue racing belt
    • Anyone found gates blue racing to be extremely tight/ almost impossible to install without moving the exhaust gear
