Can you tell us more about this feature? Can it do something more than simply sms the gps co-ordinates? This hints at a feature like: can establish a gprs connection to an IP address you specify (running who knows what protocol/software) and upload *live* data. If that's the case, I'm in...

Im interested, if this question can be answered re GPRS connection to a static IP.

You might need to ask the distributor for the installation and user manuals, or get someone to scan them in and post them up.

Yes still on....

With regard to the GPRS connection to an IP address, this advanced function is probably more relevant for companies with a fleet of vehicles to track at the same time. So instead of using the low-cost SMS commands via GSM, the unit will constantly send data to your computer (with tracking software & modem) via GPRS which is pretty costly. This is the sort of function used by transport & logistics companies to track their fleet and they have a dedicated monitoring centre for it. That's why I think the unit's main sms command function is good enough for private uses since it won't cost you much at all (only sms's).

c'mon guys need another 5 or we have to pay a $20 premium lol...

may be intersested.. i went to google earth ect..(a few other map sites) i couldnt find anywhere u could put coordinates in unless u pay for a subscription..?

In google earth, easiest way seems to be to add a "placemark", ctrl-shift-P or click "Add" menu, and select "Placemark"

Among many others, Google Maps are also mostly free and easy to use.

Use this link:

http://maps.google.com.au/maps?hl=en&tab=wl

Enter the coordinates that you've received in the sms, and that's it. For EXAMPLE: 33.877935 s 151.218958 e

Look like an awesome unit, by reading i assume its only a tracking device, and won't alert you if your alarm gets triggered?

This has been discussed before:

"You may also be able to use the main power cut alert function as an alert trigger, so if you have an aftermarket alarm system just connect a relay between the unit's power cable and the siren, that way when the siren is set off it will temporarily cut its main power and triggers its automatic alert. The unit will call your mobile phone if the main power is cut off for longer than +/- 3 seconds, so you will not get false alerts from locking/unlocking your car. This relay trick should work if the siren on the car blares continuously, not intermittently. Therefore, it should be okay with most aftermarket car alarm systems."

    • I much prefer that to an actual oil pressure issue, never would of thought it would of been a volt drop issue but SAU brains win again. Guess ill be turning down the oil pressure limit for the track and hunting some grounds. Ill hopefully update this thread with some high oil pressure and solid ecu voltage logs. 
    • You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster. 
    • Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!
    • That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect 
    • i cant get them all in 1 screenshot unfortunately as i just dont know how to move things around tbh, but they are all from the same log and the line crosses at the same point for all of them
