hybrid

No one can hate an e30, even mine loves them now Although shes scared to drive mine.

Just get it new, think my last one cost $80. 11611401996

Congrats man ... few close call there haha .. but looking forward to seeing you out in the open series.

Manditory photos .. Also, would be cool to include it in the calendar ?

Dont accept that dude... I wouldnt even put that pn a wrecked car let alone your pride and joy. Demand a refund from yazoom and send it off to belicose to get done.

Take a look at replacing/installing a high flow centre muffler. Dual 2 inch will help.

Cool sounds like a plan .. Im out of the country for 5 weeks in about 3 weeks, but am very keen if you guys are ?

Pulling the MAF on and off like that is putting the car in and out of different maps in the DME. It wont help the situation and will just confuse the DME. Intake temprature and airflow are sensed by the MAF the DME uses this to accurately calculate the amount of air and how much fuel your car needs at any given time. Removing it puts the DME back to pre-determined maps which will run rich. A safe mode if you will. I would suggest clearing your adaptions first. Also what gas to you put in the car? Adaption out of range can be caused by a lot of things. As antil33t said, a vaccum leak, dirty or damaged MAF, worn plugs, leads, injectors, cam angle sensors, even a gammy crank singnal sensor. You can test the MAF and you should be getting around 700KG/hour at WOT flow rate on an onramp.

nice! ... We should do a photo shoot for the calendar of you two

Hmm nope but im sure I spotted you parked at the Telecom Mayoral Drive carpark yesterday ? Very nice car, it caught my eye Can help you out locate the motorsport lip for it too .. OEM new and fairly cheap

You pay for what you get with tires. Michelen PSS or if you want more longevity without loosing out on much performance then PP3.. Mine still look feel brand new on the 5 series after 1 year. This is on a 1800kg car.

The problem is parity not flow control. All the resler is doing is converting TTL 12 to 5volts using a IC that does the KLINE and voltage conversion and the FDTI chip (or MAX32 if youre using the DB9 version) is converting to RS232. You can achieve the same with a logic converter from jaycar into TTL. What he is trying to achieve is 12-> 5 transciever TTL -> BT transmit. You can do anything else in software afterwards.

Private message me, I think you know where youre going wrong .. same thing that got me for a while you're just getting a bunch of 3F 3F 3F 3F BLAH BLAH ? This will be your issue ... size limit on resolution etc http://www.bimmersport.co.nz/forums/index....showtopic=34872

Good stuff. Yeah all you need is a KLINE 12v -> 5v transceiver to a Bluetooth serial repeater with a small bit of logic to repeat the IBUS commands down BT. Give us a yell if you need any help. I have been doing quite a bit of this sort of stuff over the past couple of years with some other projects im working on currently. If you dont already have the commands. 50 04 68 32 11 1F <+> press 50 04 68 32 31 3F <+> release 50 04 68 32 10 1E <-> press 50 04 68 32 30 3E <-> release 50 04 68 3B 01 06 <next> press 50 04 68 3B 21 26 <next> release 50 04 68 3B 08 0F <previous> press 50 04 68 3B 28 2F <previous> release 50 04 C8 3B 80 27 <R/T> 50 04 C8 3B 80 27 <voice> press 50 04 C8 3B 90 37 <voice> hold 50 04 C8 3B A0 07 <voice> release You're quite lucky that you only want to receive the commands.. when you want to send its a different kettle of fish. Not difficult but because the send and receive is on the same Kline you get both send and receive traffic, just need to write some clever code to read each message. The IBUS basic message is: Start byte is origin ID Second is Data Length Third byte is desitnation ID Middle is the data End byte is an XOR checksum of all bytes

Impressive. This is something I was looking at myself but at the time couldnt get my head around the steering wheel control thing. I would miss my radio tuner too much unfortunately, its nice in the Dynavin to have it as well as the DVB-T (when you can get reception, working on that part with a new active aerial) Some good new on the dynavin front, I have installed a new ROM with a black theme and task bar. It boots up super fast (around 15secs) compared to the old 30+ seconds, and its rock solid in performance. Also has opened up the CPU speed to its full speed. For GPS I use Sygic with hardware accelerated graphics (nice smooth 3d) and the media player plays all media files / movies etc. Also running a 32GB SD card but it will look like im going to change that to a 256GB SSD drive for even faster performance. I really like the approach you have taken with your project, and im very keen to come have a look if possible ?

For BMW, 14k US is actually pretty cheap hp

Quick demo of whats possible with such photos .. keep em coming fellas!

Very expensive and hard to get right Glenn. Lots of trail and error to not go backwards in performance.

Yup keen as long its in the next few weeks and not later. Can do the photography too

Hb

Wow awesome stuff... agree neeeeed vids

hehe yeah, but its is 611hp stock with the chassis to boot. It similar performance of the new Lambo Aventador You are right thought you could probably get similar performance out of a standard 911 Turbo and sink 100k into it and still be 260k up.

Keep em coming in guys ... some great stuff here.
