It's interesting however, people were shitcanning the guy for asking loads of silly questions (myself included; I'll admit it)

Then when he does EXACTLY what everyone suggested; (do some research) you've still got the boot in.:rolleyes:

He's dropped some serious cash on a mod that NO ONE else on the forum has tried; What's your pioneering new development?

If I'd copped the hard time you guys are giving him when I first came to the forum; I wouldn't have come back.

Just because we've been on here for a while, doesn't mean we can't learn something from a newcomer. This kind of attitude was what caused friction with the C34 guys who'd been on here for years before we got here.

This is NOT the way we should be acting towards one another.

Not to further stoke one of 'those' conversations; but I think the issue at hand is not only just how continually unclear/vauge his posts are, but Dust seems to have a "Im doing something you cant nur nur nur nur" attitude - which rubs me up the wrong way considering how willing to share everyone else is with their developments.

This.

Look, I don't blame him since he's caught a bit of flak on here (some of it deserved though)...

And the keyboard warrior thing...

Yeah, fair enough Dunc; I can see where you're coming from, but maybe it's just a case of telling us what he can, as it develops. He's only just had the preliminary tune by the sounds of it.

I'd be busting to let everyone know at every little step.

It's just easy for these throw away comments to spoil things :thumbsup:

Thats exactly it; maybe I'm just used to threads on here where if someone undertakes some new development there's photos, videos, dyno sheets and details. When you dont see those, I naturally get quite skeptical (it is the internet after all, a land where 'the men are men, the women are men and the children are FBI agents').

Im keen to see the HKS install - and its results, simply because I find it interesting; and I say that knowing full well I'll never get a HKS unit for my car, because no one locally can work on it - I'd need to either invest/acquire the tuning software myself AND learn how to tune (Not an overnight job); Id hate to be stuck with a car knowing that if I change the exhaust I could lean out it out and melt a piston etc!

So please, Dust, post up some more details!

so been busy with fine tuning etc

lets just say the nm35 ecu harness yes is awsome direct plug in made the job a breeze then just a tune teheheh first run was awsome, as in the first boost around the block the car is a totally dif animal with just the ecu changed

fantastic....you have a plug in alternative! different animal in what way? Fuel consumption? Cam timing? Throttle control? ect!......Why don't you start a new thread on the F-con and spill the info as it comes and many people have done with you on this forum!

Dust,

You say that the loom plugged in and from memory you installed the F-Con IS.

You said that the HKS dealer has done a tune on your car. Was this done on a Dyno? Not sure how they would tune it otherwie?

Can you post some figures from the tune?

Cheers

Andy

Nah, he went with the V-Pro Andy.

+1 to all this

stiiiiiiiiiil sceptical

picsorban!

No need to be sceptical mate.

Just let them get it completely tuned, then ask for pics.

Who did the installation...Soichi? Do you have before and after dyno charts?

What is the speed limiter on M35 set at?

I got mine up to 180 the other day no worries. Not sure if would keep going but showed no signs of doing so.

Will have to give it another go....

180kph.... just remember that the speedo is about 10kmph too fast..

coming from the dumbass that answers his phone in mid flight from Fiji!

hoep ya had a good trip and happy birthday!

lol....nah I had landed and only just turned the phone on and it went mental!!!!.......you were the first call follow instantly by Alex!!!!

some of us are lucky and can keep going over that 180limit, had mine up to 200 bout 3 weeks ago... on a private road naturally :whistling:

is there any V-Pro tuners in syd? be intresting to see results.

so the V-Pro does the job of the E and V manage? or just E-manage?

Vmanage didnt seem to work as Scott may have explained in the first page..

Maybe check your ECU if it has any aftermarket Stamps! you may be lucky and have an AfterMarket ecu already! but i know a few stagea speedo's that are right out..usually because of different rolling diameter of wheels compared to stock :P

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
