I wish i didnt miss that! i had to leave at 3pm as i had a wedding to rush off to...

Nick (WARLORD) - Mate what an animal your car is! Congrats on the 308rw/kw... Was very nice to meet you and to have a chat.

Andrew (andygtr93) - Nice R32 GTR mate, the sound of that RB26 opening up made me want to go out and buy a GTR!

Edited by QRI05E
hey sarkis do you have a list of what everyone got??

Not yet i dont... ill have a chat to JEM tomorrow and see if i can get a copy... there are few cars re-booked next saturday cause we couldnt fit them in..

Cheers

WTF, man thats not cool this name calling biz :P .

in all fairness my mate with the dc5r was one of the guys that was pushed forward and sarkis did speak to the guy that was up next and got the O.K.

if u guys had a problem why didnt u speak up on the spot.

What are you talking about?

I think he was just saying how awesome that silver evo was with its dyno breaking 76kw atw :(

you quoted wrong...... and what name calling??????????? its harmless fun coz the evo f**ked up on the dyno and only made 76kw.... not my fault mitsubishi cant make a reliable car lol and if i was the owner after i calm down from wanting to beat the car up with a bat i'd get a skyline lol

and its not the one time a car was pushed forward, its that allot of cars were put forward..... to make it fair like at most events there are special circumstances for a car to cut the line but come on there was way too many cuts, in theory there were only 15 cars infront of me and i got there just before 10 and people who rocked up atleast 3 hours later when it suited them expect to get pushed forward because they have work or something???? just go to another dyno day theres one in less than a month at seven hills and if they really wanna get it done then rock up early like alot of us did and wait your turn.

eg a guy on here was number 13 and he had his dyno done an hour and a half before mine and i was the 3rd car behind him

6 and a half hours to get through theoretically 16 cars, thats less than 3 cars an hour and there were 2 dynos running, really doesn't make sence, makes the people who didnt go realise how many cut ins there were....

all i can say is looks like the Karma god got the AW FK (number plates)evo, i guess i been watching too much "my name is earl"

sorry had to write allot because looks like some people read too deeply into a few short words....

all i can say is looks like the Karma god got the AW FK (number plates)evo, i guess i been watching too much "my name is earl"

Maybe the evo guy needs to make a list too? :P

I do tend to agree that the line cutting was a bit extreme...dont get me wrong though, sarkis and jem did do a great job.

I think that it shouldve stayed "first in first served". Whether you have a 300kw silvia or a 15kw mightyboy, you wait in line just like everyone else.

I've got a bunch of pics and vids from the day. Will post up soon.

i was a bit putout by people jumping in front- i was the guy struggling to stay awake as iv been very sick and this was my first time out of the house since hospital. I had given up basically and just wanted to go to bed by the time my car got on, and i was thinking the only thing that could happen now is i could blow it up as the motor was so cold. I told him low boost, rev to 7 and see what it does, then went home straight after

Its not anyones fault tho/ Adam is great and was trying to give everyone a good rundown of how their car is running and hat takes time. Its annoying when you're waiting but its gold when its your turn.

Hey Jeff, it was real nice to meet you! and hope you feel better soon...

I do appologize for the Dyno entry order issue however we did our best to try and keep everyone as happy as possible but as you said Jeff, once each car was on the rollers i could see the huge grin of each owners face.

Next time round i think we will need to stick to the "first in first served" policy just to keep it fair for everyone and for anyone that comes late will be thir bad luck regardless of their circumstances.

Cheers

mate your a tool str8 up, you dont even know what the situation was with the car and then you go talk trash about how mitsubishi cant make a reliable car. WTF is up with that.

do you even know anything about evo's at all, do your research and stop running your mouth.

Guys,

We are not here to dis or talk down any cars especially without knowing all the facts... If you have a negative opinion please keep it to yourself unless you can back it up with evidence. That Evo was suspected to have collapsed CAT which choked the turbo from boosting it was not making any positive pressure.

In general im not a Mitzubishi fan either but the Evo is an amazing car... I wouldn't mind one if i had the cash.

Regards,

Sarkis

I'm pretty sure he was joking mate. Chillax please. :D

Yes please dont be too rash. I do think its in humour. It is unness. to get hyped up at people. Everone i have met in this club have been lovely and the nicest ppl i have been around in a very long time. Just allow the subject to drop now and leave it as i miscommunication between ppl.

I had a lovely day. Thanks Sarkis. All the guys at JEM did a great job and Adam was truly professional and helpful.

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
