Installed my cable today on the Stagea and it plays my iTunes music through the stereo fine, and my iTunes videos through my screen fine, I was able to keep the reverse camera ffunction no problems, but I was expecting it to be able to run my Co Pilot Sat Navigation application from my iPad as well, but it doesn't.

anyone know why it only runs the functions out of itunes only and not any other function from the ipad through the screen??

Hi Graham, as far as I know only a few selected (and most Apple developed) applications can be outputted via the dock connector. If you have a look at Apple VGA cable for the iPad you'll see a ton of people's reviews for the thing being quite disappointed that it doesn't mirror everything displayed on screen to other display sources.

So I assume it would be much the same (or worse) for the standard cable you've installed in your Stag.

Don't think theres much way around it otherwise. Sorry.

I found the same thing with my v35. I bought an app called tvout genie, absolute crap. While it did output some apps to video, the picture was useless.

Ok then. Thanks for the feedback guys.

I will have to just be happy to have what I have I guess.

I've also just discovered that for Ipad/Ipod applications to be viewed on an external 2nd screen. The developers of that particular

application need to enable that within the software and it seems that most haven't shown interest in doing that thus far.

Maybe in future upgrades for each individual application??

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
