ah not happy jan our rollout yesterday did not go as planned as it in it has taken us alot longer than we expected so much so that we all need to go back in today so will not be able to make it sorry guys was really looking forward to watching this.

Just posted on Valvebounce.com:

"OK:a great day was had by all,I reckon! Aside from some minor technical hiccups,all went well,with some really good times set and some decent battles being raced on the track... Everyone seemed to be in high spirits,with no major carnage(well,race_snooze & Jester had a fair coming together)and everyone dealt well with the intermitent showers. Of the top qualifiers,Dan' was "the man" with a blistering 26.64,and wound up taking out the "A" final with a 27.03 on a damp track. Most will know cart # 11 was THE one to have,and it just might've helped in Dan's domination of the timesheets... In the "B" final,Anthony took line honours with a 31.02(in cart #11...!).As for how each club went,here's each club and the positions their members finished in:

Syndicate:7th,9th,16th and 17th

ACT WRX:4th,6th,8th13th and 15th

SAU:10th,18th and 19th

Valvebounce.com:1st,3rd and 11th

REact:2nd,5th and 12th

and,last but not least:VMPCA:14th and "too busy to drive,'cause I'm writing as fast as I can"...LOL! Actually,I did a 27.37 at one point there;a new P.B. for me,so next time,LOOK OUT,you lot! Strangely,Glenn went faster than me earlier in the day,but a damp track obviously took the edge off his times,too!

All in all,I think we're all a bunch of fairly competitive people(with James from SAU taking time off from being serious to throw in a display of "Dorifto"),and I'll put it out there to all:do you want ALL the times and positions listed,or would you rather a discreet PM?"

I WAS THE FASTEST SAU DRIVER!!!! I only did a 27.74 though (pathetic seeing as my P.B is 27.11) but it was in a slower kart.

It was a really fun day and it got even more fun when the rain came! James is such a show off (I wish I could drift as good as him).

I have to say that I was dissapointed at not getting a quick kart all day, but I had fun anyway... When the next one comes around and I DO get one of the quick karts = Watch out Jayce!

I have to say thanks once again to Jayce and Glenn for organising such a good event, I also have to say to all the people who didnt turn up (Frink, etc...) YOU MISSED OUT, PIKERS!!!! Hehehehe :)

Who else feels like they have gone 10 rounds with Tyson?

Thanks to Jayce and Erica for the time recording and organisation skills. Couldn't have done it without them.

BTW - I officially suck at the karts, Dan from valvebounce.com ran out the winner! woohoo! Next time SAU, next time. ;)

    • 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"
