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.

    • Yeah, my moulds and seals are 32 years old now. I think I will continue to not use a pressure washer on it.
    • I hear the old "I'd never use a pressure washer on my motorbike" BS in the dirtbike community too.  The only people that have had a problem from using a pressure washer on anything are the people that aren't using them properly.  If you hold the wand any more than 45 cms away from pretty much anything (radiators, wiring connectors, paint, etc) you aren't going to cause any damage.  We've had detailers wreck moulds and seals on cars at work before and the only reason why is they held the pressure washer too close and on the one spot for too long.  If you have 5% more brain power than a detailer then you know not to not do that and you'll never have a problem.
    • I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.    
    • I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet
    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
