Hi all,

I have received all the parts i need to make another batch today, and will start taking orders. If you would like one, pls contact me with your contact details.

If you would like more info, reply here!

Impakt

Couple more questions, thought this'd be a better spot for it, share the info. and avoid clogging your PM inbox Impakt.

1. What are physical dimensions of the screen?

2. How difficult would it be, for some one with moderate skills, to solder a ribbon cable between the box and screen (say ~30cm length)?

2a. Would the above detrimentally effect the units operation?

The above comes about from the desire to mount the screen in a small space necessitating it's detachment from the box.

3. What's the feasibility of having the display all come up backwards, mirrored, so it could be placed on the dash and used as a Heads-Up-Display?

A switch to choose between Normal/Mirror would be IDEAL!

4. How would, or could, you go about dicking with the speed signal? I ask because i have an auto diff (4.3:1) in a manual car (normally 4.11:1 diff) so my speedo is out, this way i could have an accurate reading.

Good questions Oosh,

1. The physical dimensions of the screen (PCB) is 98mmx60mmx~15mm. THe actual LCD part is smaller.

2. To remotely mount the LCD is not that hard, as long as you know what you are doing. Im happy to sell a display with the LCD and case seperate, so you can mount as you wish. Its 12 wires between the LCD and PCB, so a decent ribbon cable should do the trick. I would recommend you letting me know if you want to remote mount the LCD, that way i wont solder it on in the first place (and create extra work for you).

2a. Won't affect operation at all, just shield the ribbon cable to reduce noise.

3. A super bright VFD or LED module could be used for HUD. LCD will never be bright enough to be used as a HUD.

4. Not possible without re-programming the device, which im happy to do (at a small cost). Just tell me how much you need it tweaked by, and i'll write the code to do it.

Good questions Oosh,

Thanks for your answers, if you COULD leave my LCD unattached, i think i will give this a go but please include the wires you would use just in case i decide to go back to stock.

As for speed, it'd need to be altered by a factor of 0.95, i.e. display 95kmh when it's detecting it as 100kmh.

Some further questions:

1. Just how small a fee? :thumbsup:

2. Could i keep the original speed variable? i.e. have a Speed1 and Speed2 var.

3. Will either option (modified or 2 vars) effect compatibility with any of the softwares esp. data loggers?

Cheers.

Found this case at Prime Electronics here in Bridbane.

 

Did a quick transplant and used some smaller push buttons. Guess I just can't help dicking around with things...

    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers 
    • The axels in my R33 seem tired, and have a bit of play in them. I cannot find any new of course, not interested in buying used, but I am looking to see if anyone can identify some cross compatible axles. In the states I have seen suggested for S chassis the J30 axles, however for the skyline (as best I can tell) the lengths are about an inch off (2.5cm) on both sides. R33 my measure L 22" R 24.5" GPT L 22.5" 24.25" J30 L 23.5" 25.5"  so shaft length is probably an inch wider. Not sure if someone has another still remanufactured option besides the J30. I figured worst case I can buy a pair tear them down and swap the center shaft. My other option was reaching out to GSP to see if they cannot piece together a set, since the axle stubs are still manufactured, I wouldn't think it be that hard to find a shaft or make a shaft work.
