Might be but we're both making assumptions here and I can't be bothered picking up the telephone to prove a point :D

Either way no harm in posting, any info in this thread will help the dudes cause and ultimate decision. Seems to me ADM is the way to go for him anyway.

So, decision has been made. The ADM model is for me. JDM's just look like too much trouble tracking one down, no warranty, older series, some japanese buttons, no Australian GPS, unlikely to get color preference. If I'm spending $140k, I'd prefer to pay $40,000 extra for those things.

Conclusion is...

JDM = better for modifying, track car or live close to Willall Racing

ADM = better for daily driver and the odd track day

Now just need to see if I need to wait for this "Series 3" or the MY2010 or something like that.

Yeah I can see that...but wasn't the case when I wrote that message. All he had to write back was "don't wish to disclose that information" or something along those lines, which he did, so I guess we can leave it at that right?

well all you can do is ask, the responder isn't being forced to give away secret financial stats, we are all adults and we can all make our own choices on what questions we can ask or respond to on a public forum....

    • Oh also, looks like it will be 3-4 weeks before they arrive - so no coolant change until then 😕
    • @soviet_merlin Managed to find my part and get it off Amayama. While I was at it and paying 9.75 AUD shipping for a $1 piece, I thought I may as well get some other plastic clips I broke 🙈  Thanks a lot for this link
    • The point of all that for me was to get to the PDM (yes, v37 is as fancy as a haltech) which is between the battery and the front inner guard.  In there, pins 80 and 81 on connector E125 are for hi beam according to the USDM manuals. I chose to intercept the high beam signal there as it is next to the battery and firewall so it is a good place to mount the fuse/relay for the LEDs. Unfortunately because you can't access the PDM with the battery in the car, it is difficult to test those wires are correct. The fuses for Left and Right high beam are marked on the PDM cover, so I checked continuity from the fuses to those pins with a multimeter, and it seems to be right. From here I need to splice a wire into one of those 2, and run it into the cabin for a switch, then run the trigger wire back to that general location for the relay. So, I removed the driver's side guard liner to check out where the wiring leaves the engine bay and enters the cabin.  Turns out, that does not happen behind in guard liner at all....waste of time, nothing is routed through there, so that was another 5 pin clips, 4 screws and a bolt of wasted effort All of the wiring is actually run across the separate compartment between the engine bay and the cabin under the cowling...so off with the windscreen wipers after all....
