serouisuly thou.

Guys, Standard ECU's cannot be remapped just as they are.

What you need is what the Japanese call ROM Boards. You will need to buy a ROM Board and then have the proper extraction and installation tools to replace the STD ROM Board with your tuned ROM Board. This is what the Japanese refer to as "ROM Tune" ECU's (Mines, Kakimoto, Brain etc....). By doing this your car can be tuned for mods while at the same time retaining all the factory advantages such as fault compensaion, air conditioning, idle control and auxlaries (e.g. R34 GTT Auto Gearbox).

I'm fairly sure this is what Ed is referring to as "Daughterboards". Correct me if I'm wrong please Ed :)

What about a aftermarket ECU, there have been one or two Mines replacemenet (chipped?) ECU's ones flating around in the FS section, if thats all I need then I will pick one up and book myself in :D

this is looking to be delayed a little maybe put back a month. please still register your interest to [email protected] , so far we have about 18people interested.

dont forget leave you car, mods and contact details so i can confirm once a date is set.

Hmmm.... He has a Supra.... I have a Supra.... Sounds very tempting... :)

Now which computer to buy.... :(

only one problem.... the TopSecret Supra is powered by a real engine :D:p:p AN RB26 :(:D:D

Can i ask a question here..... is this bloke suppose to be that good that you feel one of Australia's leading workshops cant do an equivalent job..... is there something he has that we dont that enables him to tune any car that much better then an Aussie tuner???

    • If go with OVO or similar, you can buy electricity off peak periods of the day for next to nothing, i.e. when the sun is out and everyone is exporting and noone is consuming. I'm also planning to join a VPP and sell back during peak hours. Bro science stacks up, and also the battery inverter has a spare MPPT port, so I could add another solar array. I still have the roof space for at least another 7 panels.  
    • I might need to invest in at least another battery, maybe...as the battery going in is a 19.2kWh, which is larger than I initially thought when I replied, the panels are 10.56kW
    • It appeared like someone was well triggered. Seems the way they mention finances, and business the way they do, that there's some major financial insecurities, or just insecurities in general and someone feels they need to try and put people down. 
    • My 3.8 kW system (when new, not so much nearly 20 yrs later) will do 21 kWh per day (best few months of the year), and that's with an afternoon shading issue. So it really could/should be able to do maybe 24. So a 6.6 kW system probably cannot fill a 40ish kWh battery from scratch, but then it is very unlikely to ever need to. Let's presume that you use 10-15 kWh during the day and stash the rest. So long as the battery isn't drawn down below ~50%, it'll be fine. And that draw down presumes using 20 kWh overnight, which is a reasonably heavy draw. So that seems reasonable. The 40kWh will be good for extended outages, and very bad days where you get almost no generation for a day or two. Might struggle to top it all the way back up after it gets pulled all the way down though. I'd think you'd probably want about 10 kW of panels to make life a little easier, wrt keeping a 40 kWh battery charged. But then....does it really need to be at 100% every day? Probably not.
