Are you still on the forum? Which model Fujitsubo cat back did you buy? Do you have an audio file from inside the car? i'd like something quiet and can't get any useful info from Fujitsubo or their resellers. Looking at 770-64041 100-64051 390-64043 770-64043 Thanks!

Made a few little changes and fixes. better canbus ID filtering imcreased processing speed watchdog timer that reboots if no can rpm data for 10 seconds Small memory leak found that caused issues after 4-5 hours at 2000 packets a second. added tiny 1cm wide OLED screen for status information. Looks like prototype 2 will be viable for use. The only remaining issue is triggering the power on and off, but that could be all software sleep. After that is for other people to try it and get feedback

Thanks for this! One of the many items on my shrinking list is to adjust the lights so that they aren't blinding other Americans if I ever drive it at night. Is there a pic of where the adjuster is? It doesn't seem to be the same as my USDM 3rd gens of my 4th gen.

I meant to post a few links just in case anyone cares! The amount of cars and shows around here is nuts. https://photos.app.goo.gl/cUeFFCiZDEoMwZ3N9 https://photos.app.goo.gl/NRssgrVMaLf28kMx5 https://photos.app.goo.gl/nCvHEqB4xHCdjEAw6 https://photos.app.goo.gl/bGJGGdjbFD9wR3nk8 https://photos.app.goo.gl/cJApCLxnyqjyDdA86 https://photos.app.goo.gl/ywn1iCWEg2m3mLg78 I hope that you guys get some enjoyment out of the links. This site has been really great for info for me.

cheers for posting! & Neat!

Thanks for this. I read through this and a few other related threads. It sure sounded complicated! I removed the hoses, capped the one T top way back and in with a 1/4" vacuum cap and a black Zip Tie, and used a single hose to replace the one on the top. Did I fail at any of that? Took 2 minutes. Car seemed to drive just fine. i'm not sure if I noticed any difference on my B-version car though. %7BfileStore.core_Attachment%7Dmonthly_2025_05/20250502_152014sm.jpg.2ea0f7c682fdc0d0c5f8ab5323316bb3.jpg I read a lot about the hose 1 mod and .8mm restrictor (which I ordered for $6) but it isn't clear to me where it goes, inside of the BBOD, which I need to get in to check/clean anyway, or on the same hose outside of it. Any help/pics would be great, as it will be here on Tuesday. Have there been any negatives to either of these mods now that some time has passed for you guys? Again, thanks.

Gods, we've got a bunch of them every weekend. When I'm not out on the bike, I've been taking the GT-B to a few of them. It seems that the old guys ignore it and the kids give it the thumbs up! If you're in the area, chime in. Maybe we'll see each other at an event.

Tested and working. 25x225mm with 40 led 17x182mm with 32 led options to set via wifi redline flash warning after redline flash rate/speed minimum rpm to turn on eg off until 3000rpm. Rescales led so still uses al of them. pattern. Single line, inside to out, outside to in. colour palette thinking of adding canbus id via wifi so can be any ID, plus can send messages from aftermarket ecu telling it how many LEDs to turn on. That way a table or math block in ecu can control it.

Yeah I've been looking and found a few decent BP outback's so will probably go that way as soon as one pops up with the black not tan interior haha. Seems the h6 is rated for 1800kg towing so gives me a decent amount of wiggle room weight wise for the little caravan. I was looking at diesels but what steers me clear is a gearbox or motor issue pretty much writes them off cost wise.

ahh yeah, I have been warned to service the G-box religiously....

The BHs are super well put together cars but they feel pretty dated now whereas the BPs don't feel outdated at all. Also the BH H6 is not the same as the BP one, it only has a single exhaust port on the heads, goes reasonably well but the proper 3.0 is way better. We towed a 15ft boat around for quite a while with a BP Outback and it had no issue with it. p.s. every Hyundai we've owned, or my friends have owned, has been a complete f***ing lemon. God knows why we were silly enough to buy a second one, I guess we thought the first one being a turd was just unlucky rather than them being systemically s***. My mate thought a diesel Santa Fe would make a good cheap tow rig, and it was, right up until the gearbox gave up on life just outside of Methven on a family roadtrip around the south island.

I did same sort of search for 'new' Family car that could tow and sadly, and Gladly! Settled for a 2011 Diesel Hyundai Santa Fe' The best car I've owned so far! and I didn't even know it was Turbo until I pulled the Engine cover off... Average $0.18 per km fuel cost + RUC's over 81x Refuels so far over 5x years of ownership

Hey everyone, had a account long time ago but cant seem to log in so have reregistered now, basically im looking to buy a cheap wagon to chuck the dog in the back and tow small 10ft caravan (<800KG) and occasional garden trailer etc , wondering what's people's experience with the H6 as a tow rig? Thinking BH Lancaster / Gt30 or BP outback. I've had plenty of turbo wrx/b4/gt in my younger days but never towed with any of them. Reviews on google has heaps of complaints about fuel economy but I had a BP 30r for a while and never thought it was overly bad on fuel? I'm leaning more towards a BH Lancaster on price and that's what I'm more familiar with working on (had 5 be/bh over the years) and don't have the terrible dash issues like the bp. Is the older gen H6 much inferior to the later for what I'm going to use it for? Or would I be much better going for the BP? I have a company ute for daily duties and an American V8 as my toy so it's purely going to be taking the dog to the park and holidays with the caravan, what's your opinions ? Or any other suggestions? 😊 Thanks

Working on prototype 2 for shiftlight. Prototype 1 was a bench top proof of concept and was just wires with alligator clippers connecting everything. This one is fully cased with OBD2 connector, and buttons to activate wifi for settings and turn off display etc. There are 3 options on how to connect the display and sensor to the control box, and where the button(s) are. This one is 3 buttons in the back of the led bar.

All tested and working live plugged into my car. DCCD with small lcd 3x7cm screen showing status similar to dash. Currently not fancy build, just obd2 cable with circuit board cable tied to it. Can customise it to look like any aftermarket dash or OEM eg even animations. some ideas…

Early version of TPMS testing layout and colouring. Currently the magenta lines are grey and text is white unless alarm then red or orange. Screen is 1.3” and outside is about 52mm similar size to 08 aircon dials. Thinking 3 will fit across a single DIN stereo panel size, so could have TPMS, G force sensor and something else.

Have made some esp32 gauges and displays for my car. does anyone want something like this or have any suggestions? All these are setup over wifi with webpage to enter settings. It’s pretty basic so far but could add presets to auto configure for different generations. Tire pressure over Bluetooth round display that you turn outer ring to see different pressure units, and push to turn off display. It comes back on for new alerts etc. Can add sensor ID and working on a discovery feature. I theory the 2012 or newer cars could have this canbus the data to the OEM screen. The older cars have a physical wire to the dash lamp. RPM bar display 16-40 led F1 style. Has rpm limits and flash rate etc settings. Currently only canbus but could do pulse counting so works with older rpm signal. DCCD display. Currently no settings just smart watch screen that can show auto with +- manual and the diff lock level. Graphics need a lot of work. canbus keypad. There is a opencan version online so could be auto configured by most aftermarket ecu brands. Or web page where set canbus id and then ecu can receive messages when buttons are pressed. Could also receive messages from ecu to turn on/off illumination behind keys, or set colour. could retrofit a LCD to old cluster so can display more data as well as the check lights so stays WOF compliant.

Just checked this on my car and live canbus view while changing switches shows it matches the above ID and dash display.

Yup got mine off trademe in the end from Ledbits2012 Rang around lots of places and no-one seemed to know what the part was, infact im noticing more and more that parts businesses have less and less on hand knowledge and rely totaly on their what their computer tells them then i spoke to the guy at Ledbits and he pretty much said alot of the o2 sensors will work as they are all pretty similar I got a 3plug one that worked fine with my ecu but the plug didnt match so i just cut and soldiered my old plug to it and its been mint since Flew through a WOF yesterday - man i love this Legacy as its in such good nick getting wofs isnt a headache and i must say I LOVE the tein suspension, I dont even have to slow down for speed bumps, a great ride and very high quality suspension BUT I need to source a TPS (A22-000R25) was hoping to find one locally but nothing so far >_ <

ID tag lists Trans too aye, ya pushing poo up a hill with that one sorry the PRND321 on the dash might give it away too the cost involved in swapping a CANBUS equipped car these days too is also prohibitive and will be more work than you may realise ❤️

Fair enough a switched on one man owner-operator type or one make dealership tech who has VIN codes memorised might cry foul. But most I have dealt with have the mechanics that write up the sheet, check everything off then give the sheet to their receptionist who puts it into NZTA's system. Add in the complication that most Subarus in this country have 7A8 VIN numbers with the next 8 digits being a vague representation of the model the car is and you could fly under the radar. My post was mainly meant to be humour.

Has anyone had experience good or bad. Getting a reversing camera/head unit fitted to a 2011 sti or similar? After recommendations of a unit that will replace this kenwood dpx-5200BT, Android auto would be nice but provided I can Bluetooth music I'm not overly fussed. High priority is that it provides me with a much needed reversing camera (can't see past the spoiler, only 5ft tall) fits the space and isn't fugly. Auckland based.

New clutch, new turbo, bigger injectors, car feels like she should 😂. Impressed with the uniclutch pull clutch as its light.

what he said : Good luck with that the Rego sticker means "nothing" Only good for Parking Wardens & Cops (to see if you have some)

The chassis code tells what transmission it had, which comes up anywhere they enter a plate like WOF etc. the text on the reg label isn’t worth worrying about. You’ll also need radiator if you don’t want of to notice, the oil cooler at the bottom is a dead giveaway. certs are easy if you call the cert place first and ask what you need to document first. They have some odd rules that don’t apply to modern cars vs the classics they write them for.
