Howz it going buddy!
Yes, the hatch is bitchen.

Where can I download your bands music?

 

[tama666]

lol i'm still not sure if i like the brake light or not on the spoiler haha! it's defo different to the ones you get on ebay!

It certainly changes the aero of the wing, I think making it a thicker wing is a benefit actually.

Would love the carbon adjustable "seeker" wing tho.

Thanks man!

As soon as the glass broke, the alarm went off, extremely loud , woke the dead, scared them off. I leave nothing in the car so nothing was stolen.

There are 2 alarms on the car, a GPS tracking alarm with remote shut off via internet connection and my laptop. 007 stuff, lol. Can also track the car online, its very cool. Anywho-- its all back together now, all happy after some beers too.

 

[wishy]

Glad to hear it , could only i had the same security on my EG when it was stolen

Good to hear its all ok , and i will join you in a festive Beer

 

[tama666]

So check this out...there is an old style turbo timer installed into the dash center bezel.

Ive been wondering about why this is on the car from the day I bought the hatch...turns out the original owner who built it back in 2000 used the turbo timer to convert kph to mph [ctr cluster]! Everything else works on the turbo timer as well. Guess I could use the timer function after a track session to cool the engine down.

Now I can toss the small conversion chart I made up and taped to the dash, seen in the pic just under the RPM gauge, lol.

Im liking this unique little hatch more and more!

Scratch the USDM SI cluster install to get me MPH.

 

[tama666]

Next will be brakes, wheels and adjustable suspension parts.

 

[tama666]

Carbotech xp8 with brembo blanks...

Also trying to get a set of these...

 

[tama666]

Getting ready for some track time!
Heading out to either buttonwillow or thunderhill soon with the hatch...

Sub, 2 amps and pounds of wires gone...head unit will out soon too.

...and while waiting at RCrew last week...new rear windows going in soon.

 

[tama666]

With 2 amps in the back of the hatch, one for the sub and one for running 6 speakers, they were causing a drain on the battery due to the ELD kicking in when the stereo was running. The ECU drops the alternator to 12.3 volts under light load for USDM engine fuse boxes. Not sure if outside the US market fuse boxes had this stupid feature or not.

The AMPS were wired directly to the battery, the ECU didn't see the load being placed from outside of the fuse box, it only detects draw through the factory fuse box. Nuts.

S300: disables the electrical load detector!

I replaced the battery...and just in case the ELD was replaced too.
Apparently the ELD is not available without the fuse box included, i took a spare not being used from the track car.
