What's the news?

The ic7 will be firmware updated to allow 2-way CAN communication allowing additional inputs for the ECU. It will also be a master device now, so I believe it can act as a controller for the PDM. You can also customise logos etc.

Pretty much no need for an I/O expanded if you have a dash.

Also, there may be a new Haltech dash coming in the future, I hope they update the housing lol.

That's the only reason why I didn't buy an IC-7, I know it's silly, sure it's ugly but the car itself is pretty ugly too LOL.

Yeah, I think they are bringing out a bigger display. I think a 10”??

the ability to programme the buttons on the display is pretty good too.

One can hope, if not I'll just get an IC-7 and stop sooking.

Loaded up the latest firmware, oh wow... went for a drive and it's like I've setup Alpha-N and MAP compensation. I thought the transient table I built was good, but wow... this just brought it to another level.

@R3N3 this is how I make the car brap lol.. sounds better than rotational idle

Nice little timing hole lol

And for the idle control you want it to not much between -50 ~ -100 RPM

Awesome! I will compare the sound. I ended up dialling in the launch and rotational idle 100% many bangs and flames were had. Although I’m a little worried about my stock oil pump gears…

Didn't you want to build a new motor? LOL.

Haha, true! The plan is to switch out a working motor with another working and better motor…

Last time @admS15 used his launch control, he lost a turbine LOL.

As much as you like to complain about it, your car is a looker! Is this photo with new tints? Which ones did you end up going with?

It's on my list of things to do, though not at the top. Being able to see nothing at all out of the windows when it's dark and wet outside gets old very quickly.

I work in IT, complaining is a prerequisite LOL.

I went with a legal 35% tint, it's some ceramic bullshit (apparently good?). Got it done by Tint a Car in Moorebank.

Haha, fair enough. Yeah ceramic is meant to be better with keeping off heat. Or so I learned doing all of five minutes of research.

But for some reason the extra photos you included in your post that show the new tint don't load.

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday.
