Then go and do a top speed run in your car

There are never any oversize loads with police escort at those times either

The top speed is probably freeway speed man...... Stock az

yea fair enough, i still dont think i will be able to make it though unfortunately... i wont be back in newy untill around 4pm..

Bugger! Well if I can help I will, but I can't see me being of any use UNLESS I got mine running and swapped it with them but that's be a long shot

MWHAHAHAH start a war between the two that totaly destroys them both.

Love the idea. They did actually have a mini on air slanging match when they both turned up at the same house to do a story once

Maybe we should get someone to start a new news show and tell the real facts? Not sure how I'd look in a dress but I'll give it a crack :laugh:

Not really a news show but Media Watch try and The Chaser guys used to love ripping into TT

Pretty interesting! Looks like mine hey?..

Seems like I have a modified standard ecu with a daughter board fitted to be tunable?...

Mmm guessing no one would know how to tune it ha

Good find! I looked and had no luck but that is the board.... TBH if they don't have the software you should go Haltech.... If JEM say they can tune it then it's your choice... Would still be going haltech, but I am biased mate ;)

Yea im pretty keen on the haltech tbh, would like the car to run as good as possible, Just need to sort out timing with work etc. will forward the link to the guys and JEM tomorrow and see what they think and go from there.

I actually stumbled on that page whilst I was searching for haltechs wtf haha

I seriously looked even with the board number and still found nothing... You did well!

I would love to corrupt you to Haltech but just keen to see your before and after results for stage 1 :)

Yea as long as I can get off work, I think I will just go with the haltech hey...

Very keen to see the results, won't be anything fancy though... I think it will get me heaps keen to hurry up and do stage 2 haha

Wait until you talk to Adam and Dean.... They are mildly persuasive lol.... Oh and make sure you look out for Bobby, I reckon that R34 will be Aussies best :D you'll be in heaven

So guys, i am thinking the Ferry idea is out.................

We can still do old pac and Galston Gorge but we would need to turn around at some point and come back.

We could always aim to have Brekkie at Galston itself and then head on the return trip, there is 2 cafe's from what i can see, i am thinking that Rosies would be the go as there is a Franklins carpark accross the road and we probably wont fit in the carpark at Rosies so we could use the one at the shops, also looks like parking if you turn left at the roundabout but thats only a minor detail. Although the Ferry Rd was fun i am worried about the low cars and the GTR's

Ant, have you considered the HKS V-Cam System..

http://www.hks-power.co.jp/en/products/engine/rb26_vcam/index.html

Costs about $7,000 though (not including shipping from Japan)

And not including fitting And not including tuning.

Have you considered the request by most on SAU to STFU? Please? :blink:

fair call on the ferry.. im still happy to make a split meeting point for the people who want to go the ferry route?...

all that sounds good though mate.

no vcam for my car, can find areas to better spend money.

update on my ecu.. its basically been chipped by a company in japan that there is about 1 licence in aus to tune it haha.. so i will be going for the haltech :) and i got the ok to have work off too so very happy! my bank account wont be though.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
