What ever I do, gunna try the roller thang,

Even though I sell air compressors, spray guns....the lot, I don't have a place to spray it in

Then again, I do have a few people who have body shops who I can do deals with, but there's nothing like doing things tourself

 

[h701micra]

Dude... just spray it panel by panel like I do my stuff
Less effort and it'll look ace

 

[r-reg-sr]

....Lime was my favourite too! LOL

...sure to stand out [/quote http://i621.photobucket.com/albums/tt297/0ldcr0w/Micra/IMG_5516_zps7678bc4e.jpg

....any colours I haven't tried....what do you wanna see?

mm i like the orange and the lime

 

[jk9194]

I was thinking about basic black. There are good choices though. I know it will be very hard to pick one.

Nordic blue? Love that colour

Which is actually similar to your original colour lol

Leave it exactly as it is now Neil, it looks epic, just clear it to protect it

Seriously, I love the way it looks right now

I love it now but id get spangly shiny wheels as a contrast But do what you think you want.

Yes! Wheels will be getting a once over

Only thing is worry about and with my car is JAE. No WIP cars but it's how we want it. I'm not changing it though.

Think those rules were implemented on the max power days 'yo'
It's a bit more lenient supposedly. Lol

I doubt they would turn away my homemade super turbo, or your ga16 on webbers because of asthetics

 

[Huggy444]

All that filler made it a pain eh @Jen319....
I like grey, looks subtle

 

[McMicra]

Kawasaki green!

 

[h701micra]

All the fluorescent colours in stripes

 

[freeze19]

Something like that :

 

[pork]

Been playing about with ecu settings, trying to get my tacho to work via ecu output

When I enable it, the laptop gauge reads 65006 rpm!!!

Any ideas, broken gauge ?

 

[h701micra]

At idle? :/

Could you draw a wiring diagram of how you have set it up?

 

[pork]

Jus signal wire from ecu to green on tach, red live, black earth

Got It to stop reading 65000 now, dash gauge still not working tho

Need it for supercharger bypass signal

Was thinking off maybe changing the bypass to pressure related operation, easy enough to do

As it is, rev gauge shift light operates s/c bypass valve at 3.5k
Maybe change it to bypass valve opens at a desired psi?

Fixed displacement so psi should be same all the way up to 3.5k. Can you not run both off the ecu signal?

 

[pork]

I could.....but the plugs that come with the ecu are incredibly fiddly, tight. Once they are pressed together, pulling them apart means possibility off pulling the wires from the crimps, which is looooooooooong redoing them
(Done it a few times)

 

[pork]

Should just resolve the rev counter not working instead off changing it

How would I check the signal coming from the ecu?
What reading would I get on a meter

 

[frank]

it sounds like its picking up the signal from every tooth on your crank sensor neil ? have you got the correct software settings logged in (36-1 etc)

 

[pork]

The 65000 thing sorted, car works fine

Jus need to get the rev counter on the dash working now mate

 

[frank]

aftermarket tacho neil ?

 

[pork]

Yeah mate, worked before, from old coil
But I'm either getting no signal from the ecu, or somthing else

All the ecu outputs are set up right,

 

[Enuo]

You could probably tap off one of the feeds to the coilpacks if you weren't running wasted spark?

 

[frank]

probably too weak a signal then mate ? you may need an amp to drive the tacho ?

 

[pork]

Ooo, sounds interesting, how does that work?

 

[Enuo]

Well it'll be a digital signal, so just like you did with the shift light, run the signal to a mosfet transistor and have it switch a 12v feed from the lighter socket circuit?

[pork]

That looks like what I'm gunna have to do

Unless there are dedicated rev counters that work straight of an exu

[pork]

Found these

Jus need to find one in england

 

[pork]

I'm not entirely sure there's any signal coming from the ecu.......
How can I check?
Could I use a led bulb.......if so, would the ecu signal go to + and then a earth wire on - ?

i think you would need a scope to test it neil

 

[pork]

Would a led not work?

 

[frank]

Would a led not work?

try it you get nothing if the 2 led wires are backwards eh

 

[pork]

Fort the sake of a pound, it's worth a go

 

[pork]

Would a multimeter pick anything up?

 

[Enuo]

Would a multimeter pick anything up?

Should do, wilk usually give average voltage over a few tenths of a second

 

[frank]

Would a multimeter pick anything up?

i think a meter refresh rate is too slow to detect a signal neil

 

[pork]

Cheers people!

Il pop to maplins in the morning and get a 12v led bulb.........unless I can find one round the house in something I can rip apart .......(impatient!!!)

 

[frank]

bear in mind the a 240v a/c mains bulb refreshes at 50 htz tho neil (50 times a sec) and that looks constantly on to the naked eye, so the led would only flash at very low rpm
and 12v may be too high

 

[pork]

The chap I got ecu from says the output from the ecu is 12v and can switch up to 2 amps

200htz
On-off-on-off 50 times a second
4 state refreshes

 

[frank]

2 amps sounds pretty high mate, that should drive any tacho surely ? and i doubt a 12v led would have time to glow ? 5v maybe ?
