Hay guys iam thinking of installing the Rsm and Avcr when i get my car and i wast thinking of putting the AVcr under where the cdplayer is i herd they come with a lil plastic thing that is made for that spot =)

and as for the Rsm i didnt really want to put it on dash and drill holes through it etc. =)

i was thinking of getting one of those Apiler things. that hold the guauges and put the rsm in that spot? dont know if it will work but its an idea huh +)

hehe or get one custom made?

any one know where poeple make this custom plastic stuff up???

in melbourne heeh

Tell me what ya think where did ya put yours =)

and post any pics if ya hve -)

I seen one car with an S-AFC + RSM + AVC-R all pasted under each other on the glove box lid.

Let's just say that all lit up, it looked like mission control.

Houston - we have a problem!

IMO they are a theft risk so I'm tinting my windows to hide that Apex'i shit.

Yeah, anything that draws attention is bad, both for the perspective of it making it more likely for theft, and the fact that if a cop pulls you over all little gizmos on the dash are going to warrant further investigation if they're in the mood.

From what i've been reading any boost controller is pretty much illegal anyway? or at least makes the car unroadworthy.

I keep most of my electronics in my glove box...out of sight out of mind... however if i did have an RSM then i prob would put that somewhere in eye sight as you do want to be able to see that one easily for obvious reason when doing times and stuff....

Having it in the glove box works for me as it is there when i do wanna check stuff out and when i don't want drunk friends to play around with it close it up and then no touchies! still enough room in glovebox for normal stuff to fit in aswell

Ive been pulled over heaps, cops didnt say anything about it, except how ca I afford a car like this and I must be a drug dealer... you know, the usual.

i'm with ex-static here....

I have my RSM on the dash... works a charm!

when I get the AFC it'll be in the single DIN underneath my stereo (as my deck is blue too)

and the AVC-R is going on the ashtray lid....*squeal*

blue boost gauge, blue dash lights... blue neons... mission control !!

I had the Apexi RSM mounted in the lid of the little box thing in the centre console. Problem was most of the time you couldn't read it whilst driving....too far from line of sight and reflection problems during day. Now it is on top of the steering column dead centre attached with hook&loop tape. It ocludes the revs from 0 to 2500 otherwise its fine .... any drunk mate who tried to reach it would be out of the car right then and there :P

hay ula32

mines on the ledge bit above the 3 centre console gauges. used double sided tape and the stand that came with it. not above the dash line, easy to read, no hassles (so far)....

what did you mean by the 3 centre console quages hehe?

does the double sided tape stick preety well? =)

here's a rough illustration...

    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
