I have the HD hero and it fits; pretty sure it's a GoPro 1

ok looked it up

so the first of the gopro as we know it was acautlly the gopro Hero 5, SD ran on AAA batteries and 2gig card only,

This was my first one so guess that why I call it the first gen,

then the Hero 960 a higher res version

then they dropped the numbers and started calling them.

HeroHD,

HeroHD2

HeroHD3

go figure.

My R33 GTRST made it to work this morning :D It's around the corner getting an alignment as we speak.

Now, who can remember the Bedding in instructions for a newly rebuilt 1.5way with Nismo discs... Hamish?

I need to go and do 30 minutes of slow figure 8's in an empty carpark somewhere that police aren't going to show up and defect me for "doing hektic skids"... This will flatten and bed in the plates in the lsd center by moving/grinding them back and forth against each other.

Keep speeds down (like try to stay under 60 or so) for the next 1000km? This one is going to be tricky since its a daily (but I can take mainly 60 zones to get to work and back)

Bought das6 pro. Man this shit takes a lot longer than a rotary. At work I could have finished this car in 3 hours. <br /><br />Took 9 hours instead. But it was a single stage paint and layer was fairly thin. So I didnt want to take off too much paint. So no heavy cutter. Gave it a nice coat with 22ple as well. <br /><br />Whatd u do to the 300c? Like stage wise. Did it have a ceramic clear coat?<br />

Yep, this part I've got down pat...

What I'm wondering about is how crucial is the low speeds and how many km before I switch out the oil for the first time. Considering I'm using a "used" crown wheel, is the low speed stuff mainly to protect that if it was brand new?

Or would higher speeds affect the new LSD Center as well...

    • I'm not defending Haltech. They had some golden years, but their history of problem products goes back a loooong time before that and now. My bro-in-law swore off them 15 years ago. Same stuff. Firmware bugs, patchy tech support complete with total ignorance of what was going on. Doesn't mean that there are not 5 or 6 other excellent options - most of which were also born in Australia.
    • mines a bit too fresh of a build, need to put more km on it before im ballsy enough to go further
    • I agree their STREET is limited in features, but both their RACE and PRO models have everything you could possibly need (I.E Knock, Built in EGT, Built in Wideband, Dual DBW, etc.) It's also cheaper in comparison with anything Haltech has to offer and more importantly from what I hear it actually works well.  I'm a little bias these days as Haltech has really turned into a pile of poop lately.. I don't know what's happening with their firmware team but I'm thinking it's outsourced and their cutting costs. There's always massive bugs, they're not doing any testing, there's no revision control (I.E They acknowledged a few months back that they accidently released an unfinished firmware). It feels like they're being run by bean counters vs actual software & electrical engineers. They seem to be to busy releasing new products as opposed to fixing software issues. As of 2-3 weeks ago they started a beta program to presumably op the rest of the end users out of unwillingly testing firmware's. I'm happy they're starting to listen to all the complaints. Hopefully it gets better fast. 
    • Any plans to seal it from the cabin? It will throw plenty of oil/grime over the years. On my auto to manual Stagea there is a custom ally sheet  to cover most of the hole then the standard rubber seal is attached to that to join to the shifter
    • Shifter images as promised.
