  1. I thought it was time for a change.... oh how wrong I was.... Lasted not even two days before changing back And because I'm a big fan of impracticality - I lowered the front a touch more Soz for the shitty phone pics

  2. Dont open it with any text editor of any kind, if you accidentally edit anything in there incorrectly its not ideal. even changing the formatting can cause issues. You need one of these Tactrix Openport 2.0 The application to open the file is ECUFlash which can be found here http://www.openecu.org/index.php?title=EcuFlash Romraider is another great tool for editing the ROM and Logging the car Given the level you are at, My suggestion would be get someone that knows more to flash the rom on for you. Then they can run some data-logging and ensure its doing the right things for your car. That being said if you want to learn more we all start somewhere so the other suggestion would be read a whole lot about tuning and logging before moving any further on making an actual change, then when you have a good understanding go buy a cable and start with just datalogging and understanding the current tune on the car...

  4. Word will have a shitshow of a time trying to work out how to display it. Yep, need a Tactrix cable. Also need ECUFlash software too. Have a thorough read through this page. Should give you a good idea of what you're getting yourself into. http://www.romraider.com/Documentation/GettingStarted

  5. Probably haha. Just a S*** design really. Heaps of people seem to have this same issue if they don't have a permanent setup that prevents any movement. Think mine went as i’ve been moving it around and swapping between the tablet and the computer cable every day for the last few weeks while tuning. Have had a go at resoldering everything. Looks pretty good to me. The pins essentially just pulled straight off the solder with zero damage which shows how average it was from the get-go.

  7. Time to get out the soldering iron! Nice work with the soldering iron! There has been multiple occasions when i've had to get out of the car and go shove my bumper back on after reversing out of a carpark or driveway and its scraped pretty bad or clipped onto carpark end dumpstops... such fun

  8. Especially if it's still in the stock position. Way to easy to kick it off. That was why I moved mine but it obviously didn't solve the issue completely. The decently sized solder pads on each corner should have been adequate but guess vibrations along with the way mine hangs up under the steering column put excess stress on it. Going forward i’ll look at getting a short right angled extension cable and cable tie that firmly to the case so when swapping outputs it isn't getting pulled out of the socket on the board each time.

  9. Been shoving that USB in a little too hard I see. Looks repairable, did it break the solder or the pins? Soldering it back on wouldn't be too bad with and iron and a steady hand. If the pins are broken you will probably have to put on a new connector or maybe bridge it with a short length of wire. Make sure you use a temperature adjustable iron or a low wattage one as it would be super easy to overheat and lift pads that size. This may be of use to you. https://nz.rs-online.com/web/c/connectors/usb-d-sub-computing-connectors/mini-usb-connectors/

  10. Same, stock ride height, got a front lip now, before I put that on I had to be really careful, but now it's even worse. Guess I can trade that off for how much better the lip makes the car look.

  15. Sunday sprint. 2nd in class and 4th overall. I felt slightly better about being beaten by an Evo when it crashed.

  16. Shelly Bay Sprint yesterday. Only managed 10th place unfortunately. I haven't entered this event for 10 years and it's very technical with an unforgiving bite if you make a mistake. And I had my daughter on board and her mother would have killed me if I landed in the rocks below. That's all my excuses. Plus only 1 second separating 10th and 5th

  17. You trade off making your car slower and kinda raping your turbo in exchange for a bit of "sututututu" noise. Each to their own, but IMO there's a pretty good reason Mr Subaru put a BOV on the car in the first place.

  18. Sounds like you're after compressor surge. Remove BOV block up hole and enjoy ssstututututututu. Or get a BOV with a tighter spring.
