You would, you don't expect much from your car :P

but.....Nismo + Emanage = WIN!

Pity I may be peeling the E-Manage back off!

Good to hear you've got the boat anchor going again Craig; what was the cause of all the drama (this timenyaanyaa.gif)?

I fitted my Commsman cruise control this afternoon; took around 3 odd hours, I wasn't in a rush and wanted to do a neat job of my wire splicing (also tidied up a few existing add ons prior to my ownership).

The kit goes together very nicely, with more than enough wiring length to make all your connections, and with a quick "walk through" on the setup with Leon this arvo; thanks.gif I had it up and running in no time. The OEM gain settings are spot on IMO; you can easily notice you've engaged it, without being obtrusive, and it reacts brilliantly when presented with an incline or decline. I ran out of time today to program the steering wheel controls; but it's literally 5 minutes work to sort that out tomorrow.

I'm going to add a couple of pics to the install guide on the "Awesome" forum over the weekend; as I moved the position of the Earth lead in the Steering wheel , and I found an easily accessed ignition switched 12v power source. This will hopefully speed up any further DIY installs.

Thanks again Leon, if an electrical buffoon like me can sort this install; anyone should be able to manage it.whistling.gif If you don't have one of these; get one now.thumbsup.gif

So far I've seen enough to know that there's no speed limiter, no throttle limiter, and you can retune to suit whatever mods you want to do.

= more awesome than Nismo! :nyaanyaa:

Cam can you confirm this? Completely removes the stupid throttle limit?

Look forward to it Dale, I have to get mine in still. 3 hours sounds good!

And Dale probably counted the time I spent chatting about nothing in particular, haha. I know he spent a fair bit of time probing wires to find a suitable power source where I didn't have to. I've been asked to compile an install PDF (that is more concise than my current rambling thoughts) & so look forward to Dale's inclusions. Thanks mate :thumbsup:

Turns out the wire cut mod makes a difference in the wet. :whistling:

Yeah! Told ya so.

I think you will find if you try to 'measure' it, there will be a difference in the dry too.

    • You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.
    • 98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.
    • Anyone know alternatives to powerplus tungsten? Can't find an alternative online. 
    • 95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
    • Yeah since those first 2 replies I actually went and put some 98 in it and tbf it's already doing much better than the 95 (which is weird and makes my inner tinfoil hat wearer think the 95 was a crap batch), getting 8ish around town. Again, wonder if it takes a while to stabilize if the fuel is changed a couple of times. I swear cars used to just either run "well" or "s**t* in my 20s, none of this fuel optimisation business haha
