* Approximate prices and parts after preliminary research only. Will conduct more research if you decide to go ahead.

* + Cost for Martin to assemble: Bottle of home brew and/or a night with your sister

* Warranty: Individual parts warranty only plus Martin's personal guarantee that it will be assembled with the utmost care, probably while drunk and watching the cricket. Additional warranty can be discussed if assembly payment involves sister...

* You can knock $100 ish off if you are happy with a heaps legal copy of Windows XP

* If you are willing to splash another couple of hunjy I would suggest doubling the ram and upgrading to Win 7 Pro

This would not be a rocket ship but should smash autocad out of the park without trouble, especially if you lash out and double the RAM.

it's already painted?!?! god damn you work fast boy!!

No painting...... wtf are you talking about? I wanted a black bonnet... therefore I got a black bonnet..

Nice build... definately go the i7 and 8mb cache. Definately go the 8gb RAM too.

Never heard of the video card though... what's the go?

Who the hell needs a legal copy of Win 7 anyway

Mangs...

When burning a DVD from VOB, IFO and BUP files, do you need to have an IFO and a BUP for EACH VOB file?

Because:

I have a VIDEO_TS folder with

VIDEO_TS.IFO

VIDEO_TS.BUP

VIDEO_TS.VOB

VTS_01_0.BUP

VTS_01_0.IFO

VTS_01_1.VOB

VTS_01_2.VOB

And when burned - it won't read in any DVD player... I've never really dealt with burning stuff before. Can anyone shed some light on it for me please?

doing it wrong clearly. Get some black doors on there leave the rest red :P

No way mang. If you're going to make it look like it's still waiting for paint, one white door, one black door, the rest red. People aren't gonna see it from both sides at the same time anyway, so why match em up?

Glad you approve

Its the cheapest Nvidia GTX460 that just happens to almost make budget.

They are all reference designs anyway so the brand doesn't really matter. Expensive ones just tend to overclock better.

Everyone! Win 7 is awesome!

now im feeling so fly like a G6....

makes me wanta buy a ford... weird...

Makes me want to buy a Gulfstream

Gulfstream > ford. That is all.

Been ages since I've done it... from memory its a bit of an art form. Grab a legit DVD and check out the folder structure?

I think you need to burn it as a 'video disc' or something too, if you just burn the files it won't work...

:)

That's what she said

Something different

Naah, black bootlid, blue bonnet, one white door and one green door :P

Oh hellllls yeah. Fuckin' winrar! That'll totes make it look like it's waiting to go the painters! That'll be the best way to achieve the look for sure :)

Cheers for the DVD info. I did burn it as a video disc, but it told me to eat a dick. It just won't work :D

Will check out a real dvd file tree and see what it looks like :)

Wow, I swore they were singing about the Pontiac G6 in the song...

Thank you wikipedia... you have left egg all over my face again...

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
