Yeah I got the Boost gauge all done......just gotta buy a sandwhich plate for the temp and pressure....then it'll all be sweet, I'll drop the oil put the plate on and redo the oil. =)

Nope.....lights are still stock......not LED's

I can check it with an earthed multimeter correct ?????

Fuses are all good......it's weird

that's about 0.6 Bar so that's about right...... =) Phew.....I thought something may have been wrong

What is a usual vacuum pressure for at idle ????? I'm currently running about 0.6 Bar

Hey guys, I'm stuck at my next level of getting these gauges completed. Where is the exit/entry point to the engine bay through the firewall ?????

I checked all four of the wires and you have a 5V, 12 V Acc and 12 V Constant and an Earth. I wired them up accordingly....gauges all light up and all flash warning....but only because the sensors aren't hooked up.

that's what I ended up doing....but god damn it was fiddley =) All good now....just gotta hook the sensors up and it's all done =) (but now my Cruise Control is playing up =( )

I won't start a new thread instead I'll just ask here.....my Cruise Control is playing up too. Problem: Cruise Control can be turned on using the side paddle to get the "CRUISE" indicator on the dash, but pressing RES/CRUISE, SET + and SET - buttons does not set the Cruise Control.... Any ideas ????? Kilmo

So after a little discussion with Scott.....I decided that I should make a singular power and singular earth to all three gauges and use some form of connector to hook up all three guages to each and run the each individual sensor through to the respective units.......will tell you how I go..... =)

Cheers Adam.....much appreciateddd

Ok....as I don't know how to get the ICC out.....explain how please ??? =)

Ok guys, got my Tripod holder and my gauges from Scott (cheers mate).......now I just need to know how on earth I get the wiring from the back down to the firewall......any suggestions ?????

that's a valid point, but for the most of it, the majority of employers conduct Drug and Alcohol testing on the basis that it's a safety thing. Deep down inside the thinking is, no drugs and alcohol = harder workers, more production, less hassles. Within the industry I work in, the claim is the same. Safety. But within my industry I also see the point that is raised by Fat Tony's email. I do not support our current welfare system, there is by far no real means testing, and in terms of it's usage, if the government was real about how it was dispersed there would be far fewer people on welfare. For arguement sake. A lady whom I work with has a side business, a DVD door to door delivery service. You ring up with a movie you want to watch, her husband delivers it. Now as part of that service, you can also hire DVD players and TV's. Now for Centrelink customers a TV is deemed essential and for those who "rent" a TV from this company, Centrelink pays the company first before sending out the welfare payment to Centrelink customer. Neat huh ???? But why can't that principle be adopted across the board. Food, Electricity, Gas, Water all supposed essentials of living and then the customer gets their meagre $25 that's left over, I assure you, they would get off their asses pretty quick to find work. The government has never been real when it comes to welfare assistance, and for that we will continue to see Johnny Pot Smoker lining up every 2nd Thursday to pick up his Dole cheque along with Janey Alcoholic and both of their 35 companies they "applied" for work with.

Cheers =)

Hey guys, does anyone know what line I have to severe to install the T Join for my boost gauge ???

that's not the media blowing it out of proportion, that's just witness statements. In my line of work, defence lawyers and prosecutors always tend to emphasise points of statements that give more weight to whomever side they are dealing with. In this case the Prosecutor would have emphasised that on three occasions, from three seperate witnesses, that they all said the cars "appeared to be flying". I don't agree with it but when incidents involve death of innocents, they (the media) appeal to our outrage and allow us to blow it out of proportion. I think in this case due to his history, the Magistrate has done the right thing by refusing bail. I've seen on too many occasions drivers being allowed, due to the loophole within the legal system, to get back into vehicles before being sentenced. At least this Magistrate for once has his head screwed on correctly and is not up in the clouds.

Looking at a GFB Basic BOV to go on the T. Has anyone had experience with this, or other types of aftermarket BOVs ???? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Kilmo

Roger......I knew about the 5 life thing with the boxes, and I wasn't intending to flash my auto with a manual tune if it was detrimental.....I didn't really want to go see a tuner just to have a "generic" tune placed into my box, if I could get away with loading said "generic" tune from another car (in this case being a BA Mk II manual) onto my car. I guess my question was, is it a completely different tune ??? Answer, Yes. Cheers, Kilmo

Hey guys, in relation to the Edit, if you get the flash tuner box, can you load the edit from the same model say, a BA and load the edit from a Mk II Manual, to a MK II Auto ???? Asuming you have the software to load the edit onto a Flash tuner box.

In terms of CAI kits........is over the radiator or behind the headlight (like SS's Growler kit) the way to go or are there other induction kits that are better ????? Being the owner of a bike, I'm under the impression that RAM air effects is far better than atempting to pull the air in from behind the lights.....but I may be wrong.... Any ideas ????? Kilmo

Auto w/ Seq

Well just to keep you guys updated...... On contract to buy (subject to finance) is a Silhouette Jan 05 BA Mk II XR6T. Managed to get it for 30K flat.....pretty happy actually =)

Hey guys, As the title suggests I'm intending on getting rid of the VZ 'S' and looking at a XR6T. I've been told to stay away from a few models though.....but they are more to do with the whole gearbox thing more than anything else. Can someone enlighten me or am I being yanked along yet again ???? P.S. I know I'm still considered the enemy at this point but any advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Kilmo
