^^^ Old dude indeed!

With friends like you, who needs enemies :( ?

The article comes out on my 60th birthday SO I'M STILL IN MY 50s till then.

There'll be a plug for Skylines Australia too if I have my way!

...even tho' the promotion is about the Charity Cruise from Penrith Regatta Centre > Mt Wilson.

Good point Benny!

Kevin Hepworth asked me about that too...

If it doesn't get edited out, I told him that anyone buying a car like this takes time to develop a relationship between CAR & DRIVER and that Sylines Australia helps to put ppl straight about improving driving habits/skills...

OK but who's the guy they're doing the interview with?

:P Just kidding :banana: How'd you manage to get the opportunity?

I just sent a couple of E-mails to 2X Motoring Editors at Cars Guide, Daily Telegraph on behalf of this Event being the "10th Anniversary of the R34 GT-R" and that donations would be going to "Beyond Blue" Ray.

It took Mr Hepworth a couple of weeks to get back to me, and things started to move along very quickly. It sounded like he'd just completed an Exec meeting.

I believe that Motoring Editors are looking for something that's a bit out of the ordinary or quirky if it isn't spectacular.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.

      So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
