Ive been reading about the adaptronic ECU. It doesn't say much about knock control, but you do have a headphone socket which you can plug in headphones to listen to knock with. It looks pretty awesome, it can do everything I need it to and because Ive got a HG turbo, I get it cheaper.

yeah plus it has the built in MAP, so you dont need to buy one seperatly like LINK..Its an awesome unit, HG uses one now too..

Shoot them a message at Adaptronic, U will get a quick reply :thumbsup: .

Probably the only downfall of the ADptronic is it runs wasted spark config for 6 cylinders, the Link has full sequential but I dont think it matters enough to warrant concern..

@ full price I would be tempted to go link but at HGs budget price its a winner..

Their website didn't really say anything about that. Doesn't matter anyway, I really doubt the wasted spark is going to half the life span of my coils. Its not like you run out of spark, its generally heat and age that kills them(I got brand new OEM coils).

Does that mean with this ECU, you can run 3 coils to run cylinders?

does anyone have or had anything to do with the 'Display Link'... bottom of page

Is it just a display or does it work like the PFC commander where you can tinker with settings?

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.

      Blue slip

      By Stringycheese · Posted

      Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?

      Blue slip

      By PranK · Posted

      I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Hey guys,  Way back when (about 15yrs plus), I picked up a beautiful set of Tein 'Super Racing Spec Circuit Master RE' coilovers from Russman. I have legit never fitted them to my car, as it was garaged indefinitely while i bought a house Yada Yada. They look brand new! Anyway its time to pick up where I left off, and have started doing some khanacross and am booked in for a hill climb next month. The car has some hard af Nismo shocks in ATM, which has me wanting to upgrade again, and now I am left wondering if it's worth having these teins rebuilt? I think they where an ok shock back then, but how do they compare to what's on the market now?  Shockworks/mca are 2800+, and I am sure they are great. But if I can have these rebuilt and be better than, say, a set of bc's for around the cost of bc's, I would be happy with the performance v cost trade off.  If they are considered outdated and rubbish these days, so be it, I'll put them on the shelf and be happy to look at the pretty green colour while I save for the SW/MCA option. Grateful for your thoughts on the matter, and suggestions on who could do the rebuild if it's a worthwhile pursuit.  cheers, Rowdy.
