SWC - can do that if its all a resistive ladder. would still like the OEM radio for it. I dare say that was a sony as well.

possibly. need to see how all of it sets up.

Cool cool. Yahoo is not deliving on the OEM HU front at the moment :(

martin,

need to talk to you about drawing something for me :)

Happy to give it a shot. For the LCD in the 32 cluster, yeah?

it is. want to fix the rather expensive fk up I paid for.. I know WHAT I want and can convey what I want but it did not turn out that way hence round two..

the drawing will go to a CNC machine via a mate of mine on the GC.

Morning Mangs

Monday :(

On the bright side... happy laps and F1 this weekend :)

Yeah saw the pic on faceparty. Not cool :(.

:(

no service manual for the sony... looks like we wing it with a scope and a meter.

Bummer :(. Was hoping the part number would help you out.

Finally heard back from the insurance guys, they are going to go ahead and repair the car. I could be in for a very long wait however as they aren't sure as yet if the IC, radiator, trans cooler and AC are damaged and need to be replaced... Considering it took PWR 4 weeks to make my previous trans cooler and radiator if they do replace them I'll be sans car for another month. IC could be another problem as Blitz don't make that particular model any more :( Le sigh.

Oh yeah, and they haven't even looked at what caused the engine issues like it loosing fuel and becoming completely unresponsive or the surging and then almost stalling idle when I started it up the following day.

I'm not pissed that they are repairing her, I'm actually happy about that. I'm just not sure I'm going to like the wait considering it took them over a week just to make an assessment on the car in the first place.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
