Hey all, don’t worry I haven’t gone anywhere! all the components I need to build all of the boards have arrived. I’m therefore hoping to build and test all of these over the weekend. as before, the missing component is some large heatshrink (still) and I really need this before I can send these out. Il update you again when I have some more news

Awesome, can’t wait for this to all come together. Really hope I can follow in your footsteps and do this too!

Any HR/DE owners out there who haven't installed this yet, I have uploaded new instructions to the web server. If you've already downloaded the instructions, I suggest downloading them again as the wiring should now be 100% thanks to advice from Bailydom, Jack94 and taybo 1. alfa_owner (2x) - Deposit Received 2. craigmdennis - Posted 3.

Thanks for the update guys, il reference my PM and update the instructions, at least we/i have confirmation! Current list is as follows 1. alfa_owner (2x) - Deposit Received 2. craigmdennis - Posted 3. StuZGT - Posted 4. baileydom - Posted 5. Kryptek49 - Posted 6. Jack94 - Posted 7. PabloVC - Paid 8. Jcurtis - Deposit Received 9. Skate2create - Posted 10. Nelly64 (2x) - Paid 11. Luke2208 - Posted 12. btoms350z - Posted Still got 2 of these in stock and ready to go at the moment, will have to order some more shortly if people still want these moving forwards.

OK guys, thanks for your payments over the weekend! Anyone who has paid right now, il get these out to you tomorrow at some stage. Im in Manchester foir the next 2 days for work and so anyone that paid tomorrow will have to wait until Wednesday for postage. Of course, if anyone else on the list pays tonight ( @alfa_owner, @PabloVC and @Jcurtis ) il take the parcels with me and post tomorrow.! EDIT: all paid items have been posted just now. Will try to sort you all out with tracking numbers tonight, but I am away with work at the moment.

Buttons have now arrived for most of the boards, still waiting on the heat shrink! i have tested both of the modules currently built and all work perfectly, also edited the instruction guide with new, better photos of the actual production PCB and wire colours. so annoying to be held up because of some bloody heat shrink! But it’s needed! Really hope it turns up this week! i did need a few more components to build the rest of the boards (missing some resistors) but they should be with me by Wednesday when I’m back home from my quick business trip (mon and tues) As usual, il keep you updated!

Right! the day has come! FInally got everything in I need to finish these so ready to get them made and sent out today/Monday. Everyone on the list now has a PM in their inbox saying what to do next . Il keep this list updated as people pay and modules are shipped. Youll all get a PM with your tracking number once I have it too 1. alfa_owner (2x) - Deposit Received 2. craigmdennis - Posted 3. StuZGT - Posted 4. baileydom - Posted 5. Kryptek49 - Posted 6.

Luke2208 - Posted 12. btoms350z - Posted I also now have 3 of these in stock currently, so anyone else interested, these should be available immediately from now onwards.

From my PM's with Martin, he likely wont be around the forum again until December time, so you guys may have to wait a while.

I did actually "borrow" @taybo's wire colour guide as he has posted above. What im after however is just 100% confirmation that the drawing is correct and what the pin numbers are so I can add them to the guide. The wire colours ARE correct however, just maybe not their positions on the plug. I have PM'd taybo to double check for me too

Looks good mate. if you need any assistance on the PCB layout or arduino coding, give me a shout I know that PCB is a one off prototype, but im sure i could get that smaller if i built it in Eagle and had it printed over at JLCPCB, but for a rev 1.0 design, it does what it needs to do by the looks of it!

Luke2208 - Deposit Received 12. btoms350z - Deposit Received @craigmdennis Glad you got it fitted OK and my guide was helpful! Whoever does the install first on both a Rev-Up and a HR, just double check your connections are 100% right. If theirs any doubt, give me a PM first. Id be grateful if anyone who does this install first on these cars can send me a picture or a list of the exact wire colours and pin numbers so i can make sure the guide is 100% correct. I want to make it as easy as possible and im pretty sure for the Rev-Up its correct, but dont have any photographic evidence to confirm it. I suspect the HR is the same as the Rev-Up, but again, cannot confirm.

@btoms350z - Apologies for the delay, have been in Belgium all weekend with the Z watching the F1. Il send you a PM now mate. Everyone else, still waiting on stock of some parts, if timings work out like usual, they should be here late this or very early next week!

Hey guys, I'm just back from a amazing, but extremely wet weekend in Spa for the F1 and have come home to some nice PCB's from China! I have so far built up 2 boards, but I'm waiting for the buttons to come through the post, and some heat shrink. As soon as these two little bits arrive, at least the first 2 boards will be ready to go! I have updated the first page with a photo of the actual filled board design, now in a lovely white solder mask!

It’s possible, but not going to be looking at this for a while yet. from my research, the American guy KP Technologies, did offer something to disable the feature so you could retain brake lights but do burnouts, but he was getting horribly inconsistent results when he sent 5 modules to customers, I don’t want the same issue so not sure if it’s something I would Persue, we will see. For example is 100% doesn’t work if you have an auto. the issue is that you can’t just turn “off” the brake signal by cutting a wire or wiring in a switch. If the car is moving and the ECU doesn’t see a “brake” signal for a while, it will throw a MIL on the dashboard. You have to put something inbetween which sees your brake input, sends the signal to the ECU as normal for a split second, then removes the signal again so you can do a burnout, not simple to do, but like I said, possible.

Looks amazing! Hope you get the air leaks sorted, then we need some propper external photos and videos too. Is the pump loud?? I always imagine them sounding like a garage air compressor!

Looks great Chris, cant help feeling partially responsible for this though!

Hi Luke, always available mate, will PM you now. 1. alfa_owner (2x) - Deposit Received 2. craigmdennis - Posted 3. StuZGT - Deposit Received 4. baileydom - Deposit Received 5. Kryptek49 - Deposit Received 6. Jack94 - Deposit Received 7. PabloVC - Deposit Received 8. Jcurtis - Deposit Received 9. Skate2create - Deposit Received 10. Nelly64 11. Luke2208 - Deposit Received 12. Since i had one module ready to go (the one i briefly used for testing), i have today sent this to "craigmdennis", so thats the first one out the door. Sorry alfa_owner, i know you were first on the list, but i didn't have 2 modules ready so had to skip to number 2 on the list. As soon as everything comes into stock for the batch ive ordered il be in touch again to get these sent to you guys, from then on wards il maintain a stock of these at all times so i can fulfil orders quickly.

Those Mechanical relays boards are normally pretty good, but general overkill for what i have needed in the past, They're usually fully opto isolated etc which sometimes is needed, other times not and can complicate matters. On my VDC/Traction control boards im just protecting from back EMF with a simple diode across the relay coils, seems to work well. Looking at your boards, your original solid state relays weren't opto isolated., the new ones (blue relays are) but i cant see any EMF diode on the board in the photo you've put up. Looking forward to seeing progress!

I had to replace this on mine too when i first bought the car, very easy fix, just loosen 2 bolts (or maybe screws, cant remember), i suspect @ZMANALEX is your man for the parts (i believe mine came from him originally.

Just letting you guys know I’ve ordered everything for 15 modules so I have some spares if anyone else wants one without waiting for things to come in stock. Everyone else, il update you when things are ready to move.

Sent now mate, sorry I sent it to a member called alfaowner, not you who has an _ in your username, my mistake!

Right guys, good news! Everything arrived today so im ready to push the button on this one. PM's should now all be sent for everyone who's on the list so far. This isn't a limited time group buy or anything, so if you still want in, just let me know in a post and il get in touch. 1. alfa_owner (2x) 2. craigmdennis - Paid In Full 3.

Haha guilty, along with PCB design Happy to assist if you need help

ohhhh, why do you make these beautiful tempting things....

Im absolutely loving this topic. Any chance you could write up a guide and parts list once complete? I know its likely to be pretty "full on" but at literally 2k cheaper than commercial options, im willing to give it a read. As for your incentive, you could whip up a few sets of brackets on your CNC machine and sell them with the guide so people to copy your system I have the same coilovers as you and am literally fed up of smashing every speed bump in sight to the point where i barely use the car unless i 100% know theirs no speed bumps along the route!
