Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project the sun was out earlier! had hairdryer on the go drying the seat lol

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Average 0-100mph time over 3 runs back to back was 11.34.....data and graphs soon!

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Did some data logging on my way out before, to work out 0-100mph times and other stuff......graphs + data coming soon :D Done some proper speedo videos too first thing today....uploading atm.

no idea on the plip, i just know the immobiliser only needs the key (with chip inside), decoder ring, UCH and ecu. one wire from decoder to uch.......one wire from uch to ecu. key has to be from the same car as the uch and maybe decoder for it all to work, or you need renault to code it IIRC.

UCH waits for a signal from the decoder ring round the barrel then the uch sends out a signal to pin 58 of the ecu which lets the car/ecu kick in and start

I had the guy that owns the carlton in one of the videos message me on youtube, asking for a copy of the original footage from where I was behind him.... ...what I didnt understand was my passenger was taking the piss out of his car, and he still wanted the footage lol...

anyone?

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Ive hardly driven it, seats are soaking wet from the sunroof gotta fix it this morning!

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project got the proper camera charged, going to go and get some better ones later

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Quick blast, spins far to easily....i take it upto about 65ish jellybeans in 2nd, letting off the throttle half way through to try and stop it spinning, then on in 3rd and change into 4th and past 100 jellybeans.... Crap video but there you go :rasp...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project CB0M Grp N depends if its rainin or not, ive just got drenched not had to hit the limiter yet....more than enough power below 7ish k :) maybe....the sunroof is an epic fail, puddles everywhere inside http://www.fastchip.nl/content/view/32/27/ CB0M...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project 7500

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project the place that removed the immobiliser from it for me flashed the wrong file back onto it we think.

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project my 172 ECU had a 1.4 8v map on it...didnt realise until we tried to find out why the rev limiter was so low... Ive only just managed to get it running on a 172 based map...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project just drove it home......the difference is unreal!

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Yeah......well the pad thing its onto seems like its part of the backing, and the tracks just join to it (its silver, not copper)...seemed to solder better to it... There is nothing touching it, the board technically 'hovers' in the casing....the wire is...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Its got the RSTuner group N file on it atm IIRC....what should the limiter be at, 7500? 7200 is standard correct? If all is ok *touches wood* il get a few vids later

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project haha! Well i technically soldered it to the track still, not the ECU immob unit itself ;) but yeah, ok you were right :rasp: Ive not driven it yet, but I can tell already the map is different to before, startup and idle are different for certain.... Will...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project meh!!! richy....its soldered and taped part way down the wire to hold it in place. it seems a pretty strong joint, alot stronger than the track attempt. is there anything i can put over the soldered part to strengthen it? sealer/glue etc?! JB, yeah...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project read back, i said i didnt want to risk it lol....so i ended up risking it as i was bored of waiting and it worked lol

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Well it dosent matter, i just fixed it somehow LOL I risked what richy22 suggested (didnt really want to) and soldered it to one of the testing points, then taped it into place.... Plugged it in, and boom......first time :)

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project yeah he offered to do that, but as soon as i want it mapping, weather it be by a tuner or RSTuner unit, il be back to square one :(

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Yeah.....not far from him, his mate sprayed my old car a while ago. Im just unsure of what to do due to the fact that if its soldered to the track, and it comes off at some point, il be back to where I am.... If the ECU clinic hadnt cut the track id be...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project No idea....got a few options....Im unsure of this soldering to track business, as its never going to be a 'strong joint' imo. I either pay someone to repair it.... £xx?, then get paul to flash it to standard £75+VAT.....and hopefully it may work... I cant...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Dosent work, obviously my soldering skills on the yellow wire are fail

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project interesting.....im guessing it being a test point would be a good idea, every track seems to have one at some point.......doubt they would make every track go from one side to another..... plus, there is nothing before that, so if it does come off il solder...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project what are those little pads? I was going to connect it to that originally but didnt want to damage it by doing so...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project it dosent split into two i dont think, it just gets smaller and its the right hand one looking at it in that direction, the one next to it on the left comes from that resistor

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project does it go to a chip on yours near that last resistor with 333 written on it?

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project i just checked and no it dosent i dont think, its very hard to tell as the laquer s**t has some bubbles in it along the way, i dont even think it splits into two now! if i had a magnifying glass i would be able to tell...i think it just gets smaller near...
