Oh, thats right, you still have a speed limiter... :blink:

Thanks Andy, its a bit far to take it, but I will call if the local specialist has trouble.

Speak to TJ (RBPOWA-TJ) about where he took his. He has an S2, but they may be able to help.

Also Knox Automatics install MV's kits.

Thanks Cam, I will call them tomorrow. I will have to tame the right foot for a while, I blew the budget this week...

Is this the same auto behind anything sold here? Maxima? They probably have the kit on the shelf, they just wont know it.

well, i paid $450 for mine and i thought that was a great price! so something similar, but i wouldnt go over $600.......

That's a f*ck'n good price man!

New, they will set you back anywhere from $750 to $1,200 (!!)

You will also need at least a Universal Harness to hook it up to an M35 (as Scotty's had)

Ok, it seems there may be an issue with the cpu not telling the gearbox there is power coming on, The box must require a signal to the actuator its not getting, which is why its slipping in 4th and 5th. Cihan is hoping to look at it again on Saturday.

I have found only criticism from automatic repairers locally, and the boss at MV is away untill Monday.

Not a real problem, more just the way he tricked the ecu. To raise efficiency he told the ecu there was less air entering the engine than there really is. We dont know why the box doesnt like it, but he tells me there are plenty of other ways to adjust mixture. I guess someone had to jump in first, I knew it wasnt going to be a basic tune.

Once Cihan sorts this one, he will have no probs with the next. I told him theres lots of interest in how this turns out.

All of a sudden 200-210kw's at the wheels is looking very achievable :banana:

Interesting on what you a saying about the gearbox.....can the emanage not control the gearbox at all through the ECU? Can you change the rev limiter settings? Also does the emanage get rid of the speed limiter?

Edited by Jetwreck

nah it doesnt look hard at all!!

new turbo and maybe injectors are a must tho. the turbo runs out of puff too easily....

cant change the rev limited, its a piggyback, its set by the ECU, and yes the ultimate CAN get rid of the speed cut

    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
    • You just gotta be really, really, really clear and decisive with what you want your end product to be. 99% of people who want this conversion aren't "I want to run a 295 front tyre!" so they don't really need the widebody. They just want the OEM body to look a little less dumpy, so bonnet, bar, skirts job done with some camber, stretch, slam. It's when you want that, but then decide to pivot later you get big problems. See also if you're willing to get an all in one fibreglass bar, and you're willing to accept fibreglass problems like cracking the entire item on a driveway, instead of just a piece attached to the bottom, etc etc etc. Decide this all before buyin'.
