Be very careful with getting a touchscreen overlay - this is the reason I haven't used my R34 MFD screen with an overlay. The MFD is sunlight readable and very clear - if you add the wrong sort of overlay (and most will fall into this category), you'll destroy the sunlight readability.

Found what looks like it may be it for an overlay. It has 91% optical clarity compared to about 85% that I have seen for others, and is made by 3M. see http://www.skylinesa...screen-overlay/

I dont think I have mentioned my rear view camera.

Its a $29 CCD unit off of eBay, meant foir a Honda Civic. I have yet to find it "fail" me. The reverse lights are enough to make all situations apear like daylight on the screen. Its wired up to automatically overide anything on the screen, when you put it in reverse. About $20 of relays from JayCar.

I have it installed just above my rear number plate. I plan to install it a little "deeper" into the recess and maybe pait the black pastic silver, but its fairly innocuous where it currently is.post-83571-0-14458700-1312097774_thumb.jpg

for this situation (which is about a meter clearance): post-83571-0-97031500-1312097809_thumb.jpg

It looks like this on the screen. post-83571-0-87185500-1312097843_thumb.jpg

The lines on the screen are brillant for lining up the car down a long narrow driveway in reverse.

And now some "fun" stuff.

Although my Blazt cable does not curr4ently work, this is a photo of the software running a demo file:post-83571-0-60953300-1312098551_thumb.jpg

Also, on my phone, I have a G-Force r4ecorder / plotter. Howsever, since it is freeware, it does not work in landscape, and hence it does not fill the entire screen. It actually has all three dimentions, with the Red line basically being the forward and back plane (ie accel and breaking) and one of the others is left and right (ie cornering) and the last is up and down (ie bumps). In the photo, I did a small acceleration run (red line above middle axis) followed by6 a hard brake to pull over and take a photo.post-83571-0-64708100-1312098583_thumb.jpg Its pretty sensitive, and from the red line graph I can see I started out on fairly flat ground, and stoped o an incline. If the red line had hit the top, it would be telling me I hit about 1G. I can also record these results, and load them up into stuff like excel.

hi Vee35

This is great thread..and ur work is Awesome!!!!

Can you let know what relay were used and how to ground the cont1 & cont2 on the board ?

In addtion, how & what wire from the reverse light needs to be connected to the relay so once car is put into reverse the screens shows the camera?

    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
