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?

thx..

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
