:confused: not sure exactly. i think they just come to me. yeah, i'm sticking with that story

well depends on how many ppl are interested but i wanted to hold it in an open area. i'm scoping out a few pubs with nice beer gardens. there's one on the north side in chatswood i think called the Oaks which has a huge oak tree and a whole bunch of tables around it. however, such establishments might not allow us to gamble on their premises. i'll ask around anyways.

if you guys have any other suggestions by all means share them.

how about we do a childrens charity? maybe an xmas pressy one or the childrens hospital. any suggestions (just as long as it's childrens:p )?

something like $20 entry (all goes to charity) and a threshold for max winnings. ie anything above $50(eg) goes towards charity kitty and you can't quit once you hit $50. this is just an idea so if you have a better one i'd like to hear it.

Geez, If we had sponsers, we could get them to donate prizes - tshirts, BOVs, Turbo Timers, tools, pods, whatever.

Then do as you say - $50 bucks and your in, this gives each person say 200 skyline dollars to bet - all real $$$ donated to a charity.

Then at end of the night when everyone is pissed, we auction off the prize/donations to the people who have won the skyline bucks.

Only one problem with this plan... we don't have sponsers yet.......

bummer, back to the drawing board.

We can do that - I think my suggestion can wait for Ron.

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
