Yes Tony, but just had a look at my new crossover. It has the AV ports in the center compartment and there is a 12V power socket  there too. So I guess just need to find a way to connect the power and I will be OK.

Same as mine, as expected. Either solution will work for you. The key is to keep it neat, use heatshrink wherever soldering is required and be sure to properly tie off any excess cabling to prevent any unwanted vibrations against the interior components. If you also cop the nasty scrolling feint lines across the screen because of ground loops, be sure to use an isolation transformer (75 ohm impedance).

This thread needs an update after yesterday's discovery.

I had my Samsung Note 4 repaired and this meant the OS was updated from the old v4.4.4 (KitKat) to v6.0.1 (Marshmallow). Sadly, it seems my recommended box will connect to the IP address but will not receive the RTSP video stream. Pain in the arse.

So, I've made contact with the manufacturer in China and asked about a firmware update. I'm not holding my breath. Some are suggesting it only supports up to v5.0 but they could be old listings. I will report back with the answer I get from China and any results if there is a firmware update that I can perform on the unit.

In which case, the only other option might be to install an MHL cable that breaks out the microUSB to the respective RCA plugs and USB A connector for simultaneously charging the phone. I was hoping to stick with a wireless solution but this may be the final nail in the coffin. Let's see. I've ordered the cable from China as a backup measure before Christmas, as I will be doing a bit of driving out of town for the holidays. While the voice guidance from an open source app in the Google Play store seems to work well for my audio setup (via the Bluetooth-connected phone audio, rather than media audio), it's still nice to have a visual guide to glance at every now and then.

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
