You need a Datalogit to unlock it. Yes a tuner might be able to unlock it if they've got the smarts.

[GODZILLA-GTR]

the next question would be, does anyone in tas have the smarts or am i looking at a new ecu just to get my car retuned! (which would be gay)

Anyone know where to buy a battery relocation kit in Launnie (was thinking Autobarn/Bursons/PABS/Supercheap?), how much they generally cost, and how much work is involved?

[toffy]

never seen a 'kit' before mate , most people use stereo (0 or 4 guage) cable (there is probably better cable you can use? ) , and run it from wherever the + battery terminal under the bonnet leads to, then earth to the body somewhere in the boot then buy a marine battery box and house the battery in that (just remember the battery has to vent outside the car to be road legal)

Do you have any electrical knowledge at all? If u can't find anything I can possibly make u something up at work

Edit: yeah what Toffy said.

Thanks guys.

Haha I'm the sort of person that whenever I play electician, I leave the shed with tingles lol. I can do a little bit. Once I find where the +battery terminal leads to and mounts, I can run the cable and hook it up into the battery leads ok. How do you go about securing it in the boot so it doesn't roll around? Otherwise it not bolted down but it secure positioned in the footwell behind my drivers seat

[jangles]

has to be in a battery box

[XRATED]

Most of the stuff you need you should be able to find at a campervan/trailer place or auto electrician joint will sell the parts.

You'll need the biggest cable you can afford (up to 0 gauge) 4ga as a minimum. Don't use car audio cable, use something with thicker strands in the windings.

6-7m of + cable

2m of - cable (must be the same size cable or bigger)

Insulated mountable terminal post

Crimp on ring terminals (once the cable is cut to length, get somone to crinp them on the cable for you)

Heatshrink (thick stuff with glue inside)

Battery terminals

Battery tray

Battery tie down

Battery box

Make shure you sand back to bare metal any earth points on the chassis. Any terminals on the cables have to be crimped on correctly. Try and consolidate the + feeds onto the + post in the engine bay.

Have fun
