Thanks. Have sent them an enquiry.

Edit:

Damn that was a quick response from modyourcar!

Was told you need a Haltech ECU for this dash.

Bummer!

If that's true (doubt it) then it applies only to the haltech version, but check out the racepak forums for ecu compatibility (adaptor modules etc). And search around for the cheapest place to buy them - normally direct from the US is best, but Intune in WA were selling them incredibly cheap (950 for display only) when a friend checked towards the start of the year.

You don't need a Haltech ECU for the IQ3s.

Racepak sell modules that translate between most aftermarket ECUs and the dash.

So they have modules for Motec, Autronic, AEM, Big Stuff, OEM Corvette ECUs, DFI, Haltech, MEFI, Pectel, FAST, XFI and some sort of generic CAN interface. Doesn't look like they do one for PowerFC at the moment. Worth speaking to them though because they are very pro-active if they see a marketing opportunity.

There are also two versions of the dash. A full logging version and another that just displays things. The one linked in this thread on modyourcar is the display only version. Either versions can be hooked up to any ECU that has an interface. Or you can run them without any ECU interface at all. Just don't have as much to display or log.

There is a guy called Mike Runge here in Australia who is stocking them. I'll try and pull his email off of my laptop if I can get it to work after running it over this afternoon with the Evo :( Bizarrely enough whilst pulling out the Autronic interface from my IQ3 setup to lend to a fellow IQ3 user whose interface had died and is entered in Targa West next weekend.

Sounds good. So on top of the dash you just needed the interface module so it works with the ecu (I have an sm4 as well), and the usm module for additional inputs (oil/water temp, oil pressure etc).

Correct. System works like shown below. Excuse crap paint pic.

Hi guys - am wanting to revive an old thread so as to enquire who has purchased one of the Racepak IQ3 logger dash units and if so, from where. I have only started exploring this avenue of modification so am hoping to get some good pointers as to where to start looking and who has provided good/bad experiences in the buying/selling process.

I am wanting to purchase and install the IQ3 dash, Autronic SM4 interface and USM 4 channel interface unit for my 4G63 powered Lancer Coupe.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

i've got a haltech/racepak dash. waiting to put it in the car atm. the racetek site has a price list which is pretty good.

$375 USD for the Autronic modual

$1395 USD for the logger dash

$175 USD for UMD

$1945 USD total

or

$2242AUD + postage.

i'm not not sure if the Haltech vnet module will work with the Autronic, i don't see why it wouldn't, as they both run the CAN interface, but might as well contact a Haltech dealer and find out, cause i think they are slitly cheaper from Haltech ATM.

I was looking at the states, was quoted $200 USD for postage though. My local tuner is a Haltech distorbuter, so I got it through him.

A few tuning companies are onselling the IQ3 now, i know Tomie are selling them (at a 11ty% price hike)

We have one in our project car now. We got ours directly from Haltech.

Here is the link to a few pictures of it installed: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ps...og-t242907.html

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Thanks folks - I've saved a few links and I'll have to think of potential cable/adapters/buying fittings. First step will be seeing if I can turn the curren abortion of a port into something usable, then get all BSPT'y on it. I did attempt to look at the OEM sender male end to see if it IS tapered because as mentioned you should be able to tell by looking at it... well, I don't know if I can. If I had to guess it looks like *maybe* 0.25 of a mm skinnier at the bottom of the thread compared to where the thread starts. So if it is tapered it's pretty slight - Or all the examples of BSPT vs BSPP are exaggerated for effect in their taper size.

      Have a look at that (shitty) pic I posted. You can see AN -4 braided line coming to a -4 to 1/8 BSPT adapter, into a 1/8 BSPT T piece. The Haltech pressure sender is screwed into the long arm of the sender and factory sender (pre your pic) into the T side. You can also see the cable tie holding the whole contraption in place. Is it better than mounting the sender direct to your engine fitting......yes because it removes that vibration as the engine revs out 50 times every lap and that factory sender is pretty big. Is it necessary for you......well I've got no idea, I just don't like something important failing twice so over-engineer it to the moon!

      Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use
