Yeah man I understand. Can I buy the parts seperate or any you getting through somewhere special that the public can't buy from?

Cheers Gav.

Hi Gav, the cruise units are bought from the manufacturer but via a buyer in another country where the market isn't stitched up. If the factory gets wind of them coming down under, then I don't get any product & I lose my money :O . They place loyalty to their dealer network very highly. That's all fine, except to have the Aust distributor sell/install one costs up to $1000 (depending where you are). And that doesn't include the steering wheel controls, which really make this kit IMO.

Hi all those who have expressed interest in a cruise control recently. Stag123 (above) wanting 2 has put the number into the realm of possibility.

I'll message everyone in due course to confirm details & will post updates as they come to hand.

I've started the process by emailing my supplier tonight.

Cheers

Leon.

Hi Leon, if this kit includes everything needed (steering buttons, stalk and cruize control unit) for $490 I am definitely in for 1 kit.

Cheers,

The kit does include everything (both stalk & steering buttons etc) but unfortunately won't be $490 this time.

There is a lot of extra work for me in making the wiring harness, providing help/advice for installs & (not least of all) a fair bit of risk in ordering & paying for these (see earlier post) that I believe earns me the right to make a little money this time.

The price won't be set until I know what they will cost me landed on Oz but, given the exchange rate is still pretty good, I anticipate it will be less than $600 delivered. That is still excellent value IMO (especially if you DIY), given the quality of the CC (fully customisable) & with the backlit buttons. But if that puts it out of reach for anyone, please feel free to let me know.

Too right Leon; no one expects you to be a charity, well & truly entitled to something for all your hard work, and after sales assistance.

To anyone thinking of doing this; it is a purchase that pays you back every time you drive. It is a beautifully integrated system, and Leons backup is second to none.

Leon spent loads of time walking me through the install & setup of my kit, and made the whole job so much simpler, I can't recommend him highly enough.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
