The epson ej1 is the ecu for the LCD screen right?

Basically one that is the same as what you have in your car - displaying oil pres, boost, speed, rpm, the whole works....

Do you know the jap sites that still sell them?

Yeah, if you dont have the ej1 then the screen is only use for as a tv or reversing camera or some thing like that.

Also there is no oil pressure or boost pressure, it has rpm, speed, power (how it gets the power im not sure but it was pretty close), gforces for accelerating and breaking (no side to side) and then a whole heap of pit stuff that somehow gauges tyre wear and other stuff.

I didnt like it and got rid of it, wasnt really what i wanted, was just a little gadget to tinker with.

Dont remember what site still sells them, will have to do a search.

So basically without the ej1 the screen can only be used as a tv or something like that? I didnt think you needed the ej1 to display speed, rpm, etc.

What does the screen on your dash display?

You can use anything which has a video output; so HKS CAMP 1 or 2, blitz have something similar also, or ej-1 system

there is one for sale atm but at 1.5k+ (no ej1 system but its the sat nav one)

the screen is just used to display anything (has a video input at the rear of the dash)

What i meant was the hks camp wouldnt work in a skyline, but that lists a cable for the consult port so it should, but only if you still have the standard ecu.

Also i would take note of all the extra bits needed at the bottom of the page you linked to (unless it will all work through the consult port) that was exactly the sort of thing i was looking for, pitty no one told me about the consult port cable back then, just thought it was OB11

Well i guess i better start putting away some $$$ just incase i come across one!

there are 2x Dash for sale atm both are the sat nav price (between $1500-$2000) then there is a brand new epson ej-1 system for sale too price is $600

not cheap :P

HKS CAMP 2 is $650 + $50 for the plug for the nissan + if you any optional sensors they are $150 each (boost, pressure, temp)

but the display is better

read don't need as : Doesn't help you go faster, could be done cheaper with other alternatives, if you don't already have it why bother.

So what your saying is that everyone should do the same things with there cars, no one is allowed to be different or do something that you dont agree with, not all people just want to go faster, most people understand this but there are still some who think modifying a car is all about doing it there way and every other way is wrong.

      WTB noltec r32 front upper (camber) arms

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm firmly on the "zero compliance is good compliance" for FUCAs. I'd be looking to solid metal joints even if the primary reason for having them is because they facilitate the twist in the arm. I have never been more happy with the way the front suspension behaves than I have since I got rid of the FUCA bushes. Even the thin little (short lived) poly bushes in the Whiteline adjustables have too much compliance for my liking. It probably won't be long before I have sphericals nearly everywhere, probably including both top and bottom arms in the rear, and I'll start complaining about the increased costs for dental work. But I will be enjoying the driving more, I'm sure.

      I have offset Nismo brackets so the fact the gktechs can pivot is less important to me. I have 170mm JIC arms with bushings - but they provide no adjustment and I'm not sure whiteline eccentric bushings will fit them (I don't want to ruin the bushings currently in them to find out). Ideally I want something with bushings + adjustment; hence why I'd like to find a pair of these. Unfortunately they aren't easy to find.

      @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal!
