Spot a very nice s2, bayside blue, regularly around my place on hawker street. Sa. Normally parked down a side street between the park and the pub! Just wondering if you're on here. Good to see another one in brompton!

a little delayed but during the last 2 weeks ive seen 2 white m35's, a maroon c34, a white c34, bayside blue c34 oh and finally another white c34 with a tribal decal across the doors :D

all around the northern suburbs

Spotted a red stagea with a black front bar last week, once outside Hardware and General / Chickens Plus in Brookvale, and the other time was in Neutral Bay, outside NAB.

Also spotted a black stagea this arvo outside NAB again at the traffic lights. Gave the nod, got one back. On here?

black s2

on marion road, thismorning, not sure what time, went past graham wests workshop! we were having a dyno get toether! wishing my stag was on the road so i could have shown them a real car!

Spotted that silver M35 again parked on Targo Road in Toongabbie.

That's always parked near the park on the corner at the end of Targo hey? I think a chick drives it, I live down Targo Rd too but mines never on the street.

Spotted Nick, Duncan, and a mystery White m35 at the sau nsw dyno day yesterday. M35 was just hanging out at a tyre store opposite unigroup in Windsor.

Great to see Duncan's dirty 30, and Nicks clean car on the rollers.

I've been thinking of leaving an SAU business card on the car, but everytime I see it I'm either in too much of a hurry to get somewhere or too tired to do it.

You live down Targo or on Targo? I'm on the other side of the station in Toonie, but my car also spends 95% of its home time in the garage.

Clean car? Mine? LOL! :D

Hahahaha :P

My dyno prediction was spot-on though - 175rwkW on the first run and a max of 176.2rwkW. AFM was maxed-out, and the knock sensor was going crazy (reading up to 170!) even though there was no knock.

I've lost about 10kW over the past few years, but that was measured on a different shop's dyno and apart from the usual oils and filters, etc. I haven't had to do any maintenance.

Didn't spot either of the 2 stagea's in Germany but did spot plenty of BMW's & Audi's on the Autobahn.. got to love those Autobahn's... 196km/h in a 1.4lt compact. :)

How is this possible???? :woot:

Speed kills; therefore you are dead.

Congratulations on your internet connection from the afterlife. ;)

    • 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"
