I just got an email from my contact in Japan who can once again get me some informeter's at a very good price. (sorry Dunc & Dale)

let me know if anyone is after one?

Cheers

Andy

Hi Andy, can you PM me info on the infometer?

Thanks, Leon.

It finally showed up, in a very well traveled looking postage satchel with no padding :|

Everything looks to be in order, no damage to the box or the components.. looks like its all there and brand new. Fingers crossed theres no dramas!

I'll see if I can photograph some of the setup/install and screen options for this thread (and M35Stagea.info) :) I should really learn japanese; the manual has 91 pages of documentation for them, and 20 for us. Im pretty sure their language isnt THAT inefficient, so Im guessing they just get more details... bastards!

Got around to installing it, the missus came over and wasnt too keen on me sitting in the car for 30-45mins last night :P

Never mind, I had a good think about where would be practical for the unit and initially tried zip tying it on the right hand side of the steering wheen; that proved to be an awesome sun light reflector in to my face - so I settled for it on the left hand side.

The display itself is nice and clear, very easy to read

I used the double sided tape to mount it, wasnt possible to get it completely flush but I think it should hold

Didnt take any photos of the wiring, but I went with the Red - Orange connection, turns on and off with the car. I tucked the cables up into the opening in the panel next to the OBD plug, havent cable tied/taped back the cables flush yet but its out of the way for the time being :rofl:

Hi Dunc

Nice job.

That is the same spot I put mine. You should be able to tuck the cable up next to the main console next to the air vent.

I managed to bend my mounting pad so it sits flat on the curved surface.

Cheers

I contemplated trying to bend it but figured Id probably some how break it, knowing my luck :D

Theres already a cable running down there for the fog lights, I'll sort something out eventually.. Im thinking those little square stick on patches with tiny cable ties built in; one or two of them should keep it nice and flush.

Interesting thing I was oblivious too initially, the branding on mine! RE雨宮 (RE Amemiya), as in the tuning house for rotaries. Weird. Everything was new, in box. Protective plastic film still over the screen. Who knows :)

i rekon the mishi would have fitted with some cutting

but these ones have the mounts in the wrong spot and they hold the AC condenser out 10mm away from the core so the entire unit doesnt fit in

anyway, it will be sorted with more time and money thrown at it :P

Thats about how far the condenser sits out from mine...

how did you get it to fit without cutting too much of the reo away?

bah, dont worry actually. gotta get the radiator modded anyway so ill get them to move the mounting points forward so it WILL fit

then ill just shorten the hoses on the back so they dont kink up

    • Thanks Fella’s   to take this off topic and to elaborate a bit more. I have an rb25/30 going into a r32 GTST.. expected to make around 600-700hp. Would you?   A) R34 GTT box   B) CD00#?  I’ve seen a few posts about the CD swap and sounds fairly involved with making it fit etc but if it’s worth the work then I’ll go that way
    • Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate 
    • He means "as opposed to mechanical cable drive". Older cars (R32 for ex.) had cable drive. Later cars with essentially the same gearbox, ie R34 GT (NA RB25) used essentially the same box as the R32 GTSt, but instead of a cable drive, had an electronic speed sender plugged into the same hole in the box, running from the same little gear that would have run the cable. Some of the shittier later cars use a speed sender on the nose of the diff, or the ABS sensors.
    • Lower than engine, or lower than it should at the hubs? Either way, that is a nice power figure and I'm not surprised you say it rips now. What stopped you from turning it up any more? Injectors? Or did it just stop responding to boost?
    • Got my 34 gtt tuned last week. Car made 362 wheel horsepower at 19 psi. Turbo was the ATR43SS. Only other upgrades were haltech 2000 series. 650cc injectors, walbro 250, fmic. Pro hub dyno reads 6% lower than actual figure according to my tuner. Car is a real ripper now.  IMG_7261.mov
