    Is the goal to replace the factory cluster? If so you’re a bit more limited in what will do all the factory stuff like indicators and odo and whatnot

     

    Emtron do a real nice 10inch one, it’s only like 9 grand

    Costs more than the car 😂 the idea was for a complete cluster replacement. I think lights and all that can be wired in to work for the dash

  2. Hi all,

     

    Thinking about adding a digital dash to my ST BH. All the dashes I've found mainly require a can connection to work. I believe I have a link G3 V7 plug in ECU running the show and it has an empty 5 pin plug on the board which I believe can be used as the CAN port. Anyone able to confirm this?

     

    Also if anyone has any recommendations on a digital dash would be appreciated. Currently looking into a Powertune digital one

  3. Buyee/yahoo auctions usually has a few sets going but they won't be cheap after shipping
    Do you know if all the seat mounting points are the same on the bottom of the seat? I've found a seat rail but doesn't say what model seat it fits

  4. Does anyone know where to get seat rails? Have recently bought some Recaro SP-JJ seats from a CL7 Euro R but can't seem to find rails as I'm wanting to put them in my BH

  5. If you've had the intercooler off I'd check for vacuum leaks, there are 4 vacuum hoses that go to the intercooler and they need to be put back in the correct places. Unless they have been replaced they should be numbered and easy to find their original places. I've had the maf unplugged off my rev d and it didn't stall so may be a good idea to get it checked or swap it out to be sure. Sometimes the easiest way to find the problem is to revert back to how it was before and see if the mod was what caused the issue

  6. What injectors does it have standard? I thought the rev D’s had decent sized top feeds already?
    A cheap decap or bumping the fuel pressure up a bit should give you a decent amount more headroom though. 
    Has the factory pink injectors, have talked to Tony in the last couple days and he said to send him a set of pinks and he will get then decapped and flow checked. So while that's happening I'll try get a cert

  7. Got my brembos and 2 pot rear calipers back from powdercoat on friday, rebuilt the calipers over the weekend, fitted today with new pads and rotors. Finished off with STI Forester wheels. Fitted smoked sequential LED guard indicators. Now to raise the suspension so it's actually drivable.06d6069888f2899ffbf56caca64c4cf2.jpgc2bdf2da8c4c96ecb6e5e8360b7d8ee8.jpg

    Yeah get a dual boot going. I've done the same as darkchief with my MacBook, some things apparently work with macos but it's an uphill battle with zero support in general so make it as simple as possible and do it the way everyone else does
    Any tips on doing a dual boot?

  9. With your macbook, did you dual boot Windows for using the applications required to read and flash roms? I had to set up a dual boot setup on my macbook to be able to read roms via tactrix, assume I could write but never got that far
    Not that smart with computers sadly, however that does make sense. I'll have to look into it, thanks

  10. Yea[mention=15121]Marky[/mention] would be the go to in your area, if you cant get hold of him let me know and i can help out remotely. 
    iirc i provided you with the map you mentioned. My Tactrix is being borrowed again but as mentioned if you cant get someone local let me know and I can send it your way when i get it back and help out. 
    Have sent Mark a text but haven't had a response yet. Definitely do have the tune file you've sent me and borrowed a tactrix from a mate, couldn't get anything to work whether it's because I have a Mac book or I did something wrong I don't know. If you are able to help me out when you get your cable back it would be much appreciated.

  11. Marky that used to be on here still does some so should be able to sort you out. I haven’t seen his listing on marketplace in a while but he probs still does them
    Don't suppose you have a way of getting in contact with him?

  12. Anyone know of anyone in the bay of plenty that can reflash an ECU? Have done a single turbo swap on my BH5D but now just needing a flash. Even have a tune that could go on but don't have a tactrix and can't figure it out

  13. Haven't done much to it for a while but just got it back from fab, now has a front mount intercooler. This one is quite different from all the other BH/BE's I've had, I've ST swapped it using a vf30, 6 speed swap from a BL, brembos going on one day, eifel prova adjustable suspension, genuine work wheels and a blitzen bumper. Paint to come one day but new engine first.23ffb21f611af86bf970846ce3d7c1fc.jpg

  14. A chance has come about to do a dash swap in my BH legacy with a V7 STI dash and was just wondering if anyone here has done it before? Anything that ill need? and wiring wise which parts do i have to merge and which parts will swap over?  I know the basics of what ill need being, dash, cluster, hvac system, airbags, steering wheel and wiring. Main reason im wanting to do the swap is because i want to single turbo swap a Rev B wagon but want to use all the goodies like pink injectors and not have to mess with my motor again changing over the timing system and intake, plus id be able to use a V7 ecu meaning i can either tune it or get a plug in later down the line.

    Considering you had basically written the money off, that's like.... a dozen free beers and a couple of free good steaks every week for 18 months. Bloody result.

    If only it was that simple. First payment was supposed to come in on Monday. No money, checked again today. still nothing. So i called the ministry of justice and asked what the next step was. Turns out that the attachment order was served on the 12th of June. On the 18th of June she filed for the benefit. So we can all see the problem there. 

     

    So back to the court i went. I had to file yet another attachment order in order to get money from her benefit. But i didn't stop there, i don't really want to say what else i've done in case in case she is lurking on here, she is pretty into her cars so it wouldn't surprise me if she's on every forum. What i can say is that its totally legal because the court provides it as an option. As much as i have been told to drop it. Im not stepping away and id like to thank all of you for supporting me to do this. Oh and for those counting. The bill is now almost $4000

  16. Right, so a little update for those who care. I've finally filed an attachment order to be put onto her pay and its been approved. The business shes works for has been ordered to deduct $50 a week from her pay and send it to me. From my calculations thats 72 weeks if the payments are all made and on time which means I might have some spending money for Christmas next year. The attachment order states that its up to me to make sure payments are coming in so a few calls to her place of work might be made. And while $3580 might not be a whole hell of a lot to be fighting over for the time its taken and will continue to take. i think an example needs to be made so the next person doesn't get let off so easily.
