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.

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
