Weekend Toy / Show Car

Confused, as you redid the wiring, would you know if this is correct for the ECU in my car? Reading this, I take it that for speed signal, I'd need to tap into the yellow/blue wire connected to B10 ?

[Confused]

If that's for a JDM with Traction control, then yes. If it's for a UKDM without, then no

[uberNoobZA]

Anyone know where I could get the pinouts for the correct ECU ? It seems JDM TCS 4WS ECUs have 4 plugs and not 3 ?

[mart609]

those ecus are pretty rare iirc

[uberNoobZA]

I'll have to lift the carpet and remove the foot rest and have a look see what ECU's in there. Not a major urgency, as navigation SEEMS to be working fine calculating speed using GPS signal

Got the moonroof glass out yesterday and saw that the frame itself was pretty much rust free, so not going to go through the whole process of making 5G sunroof frame fit in the 4G, but rather just replace the glass.

This is how the current glass frame looks, with the rust also appearing as bubbles under the seals on the top of the moonroof


This is how the replacement frame looks. Looks brand new And no rust bubbles forming under rubber seals

This is a cracking little project.

Really good to seeing you get stuck-in on Gaynos old car.

Buying someone elses car and making it your own is always a bit of a challenge.

Great work so far and loving some of these improvements

Not really much more I'm planning to do to the car, as it's all been done pretty well. Just a matter of maintaining it and maybe doing a little work on rust that's starting to appear as well as stone chips and the damaged front splitter.

Sure is.

How are you getting on with Darf's car these days?

I wonder what @Gayno did with the black rear lights I made with LEDs in them, did he sell them on or are they tucked away in his garage/loft somewhere?

They're broken unfortunately.
I agreed to take them off his hands and try and fix them for my BB4 - just haven't got round to collecting from him yet... Probably be JAE before that happens, now!
