Hey Paul,

Keen to hear the report on your cruise control, is the drive by wire option? when I spoke to Autotainment some time ago they had only done the vacuum kit. I'd like to get this done as my next mod so if you can let me know the details, price e.t.c would be much appreciated. PM if you prefer, thanks mate.

I'm guessing your drive back home will be alot more relaxed than drive to Perth with the cruise....

Hey man! I think I saw your car this morning turning out from a side street in the city onto St Georges TCE, was that you? I was in a bus :P nice! you have the new kit yeah?

Also with your cruise control, do you have the momo steering wheel? if so what did he end up doing for you?

Hey guys

Ran into a problem with the cruise control but working to fix it.

Will let you know how it all goes when it's fixed.

Yeah i was leaving the hotel, or it was the valet driver bring my car around.

I don't have the momo wheel.

I wouldn't have a clue what type of crusie control i have. It all looks standard

yeh I'm keen to know how it ends up too, please PM me the price also.

I spoke to Autotainment also and they said it was less than an hour install and uses the factory buttons. Extremely tempted if it works well, I just want to make 100% sure it wont be a problem with the manual.

Best to talk to Chris Rogers about the manual and prices.

Welcome to Perth!

How much is all of this costing you if u dont mind me asking?

Say hi to Brian for me. He did my double din and swix pac install.

i was in perth on the weekend. He didn't get the cruise control working. Brian didn't charge me.

But it will be fixed :) Chris is going to talk my local guy through it on thursday so fingers crossed. I think the unit cost about $750 from "Chris Rogers" the man. and that was only the parts. Ask Chris first

Hey Paul,

If you dont mind me asking, what was the go with your cruise, is it now installed but not working? do you know what the issue was?

I'm seriously considering purchasing this kit and getting it installed, I was going to see Brian but no luck there?

For the crew that wanted to know about the cruise control.

It's finished now and is AWESOME! just had a faulty part but Chris sent a new one and my local guy Phil put it in, works fine :/

try it on ACCEL. it will creep up on speed first then nail the throttle if you hold it long enough.

in all its not a bad unit. wish I knew (which I will once I get the box back) what was up with the other box.

I sent teh same unit to CHCH -NZ today as well.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
