    • Well that took far longer than expected. Prototype 4 fitted into the case with the LEDs and buttons and closed fully. So that’s a win.    I ordered new prototype 9 boards and another selection of components which took a few weeks. Procrastinated a few weeks, plus life things.   Assembled the first one over weekend but it didn’t work. managed today to find a small shirt or solder under a diode, and that the main mosfet on the input was faulty. Not caused by the short. these have the reverse voltage protection and LEDs to show the voltages are good. Should put it in a case and test this week.   Also a board for the 1.44” screen board and parts arrived. Assembled that and initial tests have power supply section working ok. Have to connect it up to the screen etc this week and test the canbus part. It has a small issue with the mounting holes being being under a mm out but the holes are 2mm so that’s a lot. A file will solve that so first 10 or 20 that arrived will have oval holes. So DCCD displays should be a thing soon. And the microcontroller isn’t locked down so anyone can make it display whatever they like.       Thinking of bringing them all to Flatnats for people to try and get feedback. Plus may have some race cars to test them lined up.  
    • It’s also modified autos drop more in value. Most people know that autos are weak and their life is shortened by more power unless you do some serious parts replacement inside them.   So if you are only keeping the car for a few years don’t worry about the ecu or new turbo.    make sure you have really good tires for the trackday so you can carry more speed through the corners, much more helpful than a bit of extra power.
    • lol only reason to put devices in cars is to have some private company make profit selling them. NZ already has number Plate scanners on toll roads so as long as you registered it auto pays. They also like them as they act as speed cameras as well. They read entry and exit of the toll so can see your average speed over a known distance.
    • Ahh that is a fair point. Honestly I'd love a manual and have always driven manuals however I am dealing with a slight bulging disc and while it is healing having an auto is so much easier on my back so Im planning to have the auto for 2 - 3 years and then get a manual OR eventually an R35 since it is DCT.
