    Well, it came to that time of year again,and so another day I had to endure the irrationality of my automotive separation anxiety :scare:

    However, I can only yet again heap praises onto the guys at Abbey for taking care of my pride and joy :thumbs:  as it went in for the mini morsel of a P1 and MOT

     

    Cheers and many thanks to Mark, Scott & all for their excellent service and quick turn around.

    I'm using the link g4+ plugin ecu very flexible unlike my old turboxs utec

     

    :)

     Yes a good set up to use, I see your still using DBW throttle , what throttle motor are you using?

     

    You should of looked at the Link CAN Lambda set up.  Far more accurate and more reliable output than a normal 0-5v output lambda/AFR.

    Mark, hope you're good

     

    I'm going with coilovers in the rear so 300lbs is actually pretty stiff. I've had a fair bit of discussion with MCS about what I want from the car and how I'd like it to handle and this is their recommendation on what to run. Worse case it's only a pair of springs to swap out to try something else with the setup. 

     

     

     arh I read as you changed the lower arms you was using the SPL arms that take the springs. So you not re-enforcing the suspension mounts to go coil over then?

  4. Good Damper I know Jerome from years ago when he started JRZ.

     

    Are you sure 300lb rear springs will be hard enough as they are in board of the rear damper position. I  think I am running 8kg/mm on the rear of my Trackday Zed which works out as 450lb which i still think is to soft.

     

    Only run a 10KG on the front which is softer than you are going to run.

     

     

     

     

     

  5. Hi

     

    This is the tracking I had at the weekend, and its been maxed to factory settings as much as possible but as you can see still a little way to go. running CR Kiwani wheels 19x9.5 19x10 running Pilot Sports 255/40/19 295/35/19 on Eibach Pro sings 25mm / 20mm. Handling is very edgy as the steering is far to sharp and doesn't feel safe. Anyone suggestions ?

     

    Looks like the toes are too aggressive toe in in my view.

     

    The rear cambers although above the maximum tolerance will not make the car nervous like you have said.

     

    I would run the car with parallel or just just 0.01/0.02 TOE OUT on the front and max off 0.05/0.06 TOE IN on the rear.

     

    In my view rear camber kit will make not difference to how the car will drive but running less rear camber will gain some grip and stop excessive tyre wear.

  6. Mark, do you map in "pops and bangs" on request ?

     

    My girlfriend has her car booked In with you for up rev (2005 car) and has just found out about pops and bands and is now like a kid at Christmas lol

     

    Pops and bangs come free of charge with the base UPREV cost.

  7. Thanks for your help Mark. I'm going to need to pay you guys a visit soon so makes sense to do this at the same time.

     

    If I bought one of those ECU's and brought it to you, I'm assuming you'd just load the map you guys already did for me into it, add the ARC upgrades and away we go?

     

    Does changing the ecu affect anything like remote central locking or NATS?

     

    Your lose NATS and I would need to check all the tune as the REV UP may work a little different. but only around 2 hours dyno work.

  8. Is it possible to buy a HR ecru and fit it into a DE? Guessing not as nobody has mentioned it. The DE ecu's frkm the US are pretty costly, shame they couldn't find room for it in the UK DE ECU

     

    HR ECU wont fit either in connection or software.

    If the US ecu's are so costly would it not be easier to simply fit a stand alone ecu on a DE ? Anyone done this ?

     

    The US (DE) wide band ECU (early US car where narrow band like early JDM cars) are pretty cheap from the US around £150 normally or you could use a UK REV UP (296BHP) ECU we can just turn off the exhaust cam DTC codes there are cheap in the UK

    any questions ask away

     

    thanks

     

    So would either of those fit my 05 plate DE Mark and then be multi mappable basically ?

     

    I would like pops n bangs, but due to remote location my main need is maps to switch from super unleaded to standard unleaded

     

    yes that ECU will provide what you require @MikeyM
