clevite in the states used to make Nismo stock...wouldn't surprise me at all if ACL are now producing them for Nismo.

Some silly people think that Nismo have a factory that produces all their items...lol. Just like HKS also have a similar factory that produces all their items. Most of the production is outsourced to save tooling up on specialist items...makes perfect business sense.

OS Giken 3 litre crankshafts are actually made in Australia, but due to contractural agreement you cannot buy them here.

Nothing wrong with ACL stuff...mine see's over 1000hp crank...Mark's engine sees 1500hp crank...both use off the shelf ACL's.

Tell me about it...

Getting stuff here in japan is by no means just walking in the door and asking the monkey at the counter!!

Always have to order and the wait can be months!!

I've learned not to bang my head against brick walls anymore..it hurts too much

Sometimes you get suprised but!

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • 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.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • 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.
