SUMMONER!!!!

Cam here how ya doin man.

i got my RSM from Car Quest, $400 for RSM plus $80 for G-Sensor, i put it in myself, pretty easy, except the manual was in japanese, so had to go online and get english version, i didnt see any commodore wiring diagrams in there though??

anyway come and have a look and see what it does next time ya see me if ya want, i rekon the RSM beats the hell out of G-Tech anyday, looks heaps better and does more and only a little more expensive.

Cya round.:)

yeah there pretty good, dunno how accurate they are but they are supposed to be accurate to within 0.01 of a second but ive never been down the quarter so i dont know, the h/p reading was pretty accurate though, that was spot on to what the dyno read on my last car.

i have the older style RSM, the one before the blue screen but its basically the same.

I set it down on the quarter and on a few runs it was spot on, and the rest were only 0.1-0.2 seconds off the mark. It all depends on wheels spin as it reads it from the distance travelled.

So in theory you could do a 400m quarter on the spot :)

RadiuM,  

I have the older style RSM in my R32 as well (When its arrives, should be a week or two). Once it arrives do you think we can catch up at one of the events and you could run me through the RSM functions?

yep, no problem.

its quite simple, i just played around with it a bit until i figured it out.

R33_cam, nope.. don't think the older one came with a G sensor (checks manual) but the new one might compensate for this.

We installed a new one in a mates car, I love the G sensor graphs, just like the R34 GTR. hehe :)

:lol: yeah i think alot of the features are there to just look good :lol:

hks-s14::

they are pretty accurate with distances i rekon, measures to 0.01km (i think, don't quote me on that), its all resetable whenever you want, and can record your best times etc etc

now all i need is the SAFC sitting next to it, that would look sweet and mite actually make it go a bit better too....:)

Just thought id let u guys know that Skylines Australia does not condone any of the silly behaviour as described in this thread. If you break the posted speed limit you run the risk of killing yourself and others and we all know nobody wants that. We have already had a couple of incidents in the fold over the last week or 2 so lets not go testing our RSM's to see if we can beat the land speed record eh?

If you really feel complled to give it a good test, Moroplex is open most weeknights for a small fee and its alot safer and legal there than it is on public roads. :D

Oh, no more references to illegal activites please. Any more and the thread will have to closed.:uh-huh:

    • A little more work this week.  Fitted astra power steering pump in the boot with a lowe fabrication bracket. Gave the pump a good clean, fitted Anderson plug and high pressure fitting. With the intercooler being flipped under rad support factory headlights weren't going to work. Ordered a set of origin battle lights, they arrived so got them test fitted. Will require some fiddling to fit nice but was an easy quick option for now. And today we pulled out the manual Rb gearbox and test fitted a ZF 8HP50. It will fit with some casting tabs cut off and small tap of the tunnel with a hammer. Pick up the adapter plate Wednesday so hopefully all bolted in Friday and measure for tailshaft which will be a 2 piece. Been doing a lot of ecu, pdm and tcu loom design so when comes to wiring it in a few weeks will all go smoothly.
    • FYP. Sadly. Even bolt cutters wouldn't take 2 sec. But in the days of 18v angle grinders, nothing is safe.
    • One piece driveshaft I would recommend a dual CV setup otherwise stick to OEM. I have heard most one piece driveshafts cause excess vibration otherwise. The transmission grind I'm quite familiar with. You can try shockproof gear oil, otherwise you need a new transmission. The shifter is extremely simple on these cars. If you want pull apart the assembly and replace the plastic bushing but I doubt that fixes anything. The tail light issue is very common, unfortunately new tail lights are long discontinued. The trunk antenna going up always is because your radio doesn't have a true power antenna control, just remote amp power signal. There is a blank switch plate that you can pop out and install a switch for this or alternatively source a head unit that has proper antenna control. Throttle body sticking you have to disambiguate by disconnecting the cable and seeing if the linkages are the problem or something else. There is a procedure to adjust them, refreshing them is also somewhat involved if that's the issue. I have dealt with many of these issues. Old cars really are fractals of problems. The more you fix the more you discover there is to fix.
    • Welp, you've got a long list of experiences right there. I'd say you're on the right path.
    • That's correct, suits my requirements a bit better. Sure there are also numpties there, however it's generally a different vibe and more my kind of vibe.
