Hey Lucy, on a public forum I'm not too sure it would be wise to answer this question. I'm not trying to be nasty, but a lot of morons have access to this site and it would be pretty unfortunate if a sauwa member's car was ripped off mysteriously while uninsured. Just my 2 cents anyway, I apologise if I ruined your thread.

"Ooooh, this car looks sick, i'm gunna pinch it!.... oh wait, i better get online and see if they have insurance. Cause its best that i steal a car that isnt insured, over a car that is insured..."

*15 minutes later*

"DAMNIT, they are insured. Oh well better find a different car to steal."

gotta say i dont get it.

wouldnt you rip a car with insurance so that the person gets another car and you get the car you stole..

all winners except for insurance company and the public insured with them as premiums go up forimports.

you obviously dont know how much modifed car owners get ripped by insurance companies.

i got no where near what my car was worth back from insurance, i can almost be certain i could have sold it for more.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
