ive already got springs - nah im going to talk to Jeff Ash this morning - hopefully he can help. Ive been told springs will heighten the front a little but the way i saw the wheels semi disappeared behind the wheel arches this morning - i actually dont think it would be a bad idea.

i dont get dragged often either - must be something to do with being a chick. But i love to muck around with motorcyclists haha they take off and they dont expect to see a car beside them off the mark so they'll gun it more then i'll gun it more - of coarse i lose but i give them a good run for their money :D

Yeah fair enough but my goal is to beat one of them with my car in the next few months or so... i have been wanting to get turbo done and other bits with it for quite sometime now! but if things sort themselves out at work then i will give Brett a few $$$ to work on a few things.

Hey Dan if you want the car to go faster, lighten it up.... take out the 130Kg driver and put in a 95kg driver with the same 1st name.... should work a treat:uh-huh: :D

motorbikes are awesome

250cc piss poor

i'll just remember never to drag one of them 1000cc

hondas or watever brand they are

goddddddddddddddd damn!

adrian :D

i wanna get my motorbike license! but i just have this really bad feeling bout it!

Dan - should be very interesting to watch once you get the mods done - I'm going to go up to PSI tomorrow morning to have a chat with the blokes there - what was the guy's name again? Was it Brett?

Adrian - ANY bike over 600cc will destroy any car unless u have one doing less than 12s.. my 14 year old 750 GSX-R will still do the 1/4 in under 12 and 0-100km/hr in a little over 3 - bit slower with the front wheel in the air, but much more fun! :D

yup - the bike is much fun for only $3k - completely std too!

I'm 26 - u?

Definitely - tho don't go bigger, go the 250 for the year first otherwise you'll end up a smear on the pavement.. experience is required for bigger bikes.. :D

Hey Cam,

Yup Brett is the guy to speak to tell him that you are a good friend of Daniel Webb and he will look after you the same way as he did with dan (IMACUL8), Brett really does go that extra effort and incase of an emergency i know that i could call him and he would help! He is a very busy man though so book perhaps a week in advance.

My car will be sleeping the night next tuesday and wednesday getting ready for auto salon so if you are there then let me know how my car is going :-)

    • 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"
