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...

the double sided tape that came with the avcr has got good traction.... very sticky :P

    • No need to replace the cover if it is still intact (not worn through). It would be worth checking the balancer for matching marks on the rear, but I'd assume the balancer was loose at some stage. The cam timing marks look fine, once you put the new belt on you can only be right or a full tooth out
    • Disconnecting rods! must have been an unpleasant surprise...
    • So been ocd with timing mark but checked from few angle and seems both cam are on and crank is matching as well to the slot on sump and crank pully   i noticed crankshaft cover has been robbed as per attached pic. Any ideas why? Could my balancer or harmonic be on its way out? should I replace the cover? https://ibb.co/ZR1JFYRR
    • So now doing the change and first time dealing with rb so little nervous giving engine power and potential for screwing it up When you align all marks and then remove crank bolt, timing move little I assume you can put the bolt back in once you have removed the pully to get timing to where you want?   here is pic of my both intake and exchust cam aligned, depending on angle you look they seem to be either aligned or a half tooth or so out. Any thoughts? Should you angle your face and look at each mark that way as if looking straight rather than from above as it can be misleading   <a href="https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/HfWrGR9b/IMG-4447.jpg" alt="IMG-4447" border="0"></a> <a href="https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/JWBqWwr1/IMG-4445.jpg" alt="IMG-4445" border="0"></a>   https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.
