Guest Ranger_Man Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 [15:46] hodgehatesyou: [15:46] hodgehatesyou: http://www.columbusracing.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=001247;p=1#000000 [15:46] hodgehatesyou: i wonder if hes talking about apexi's new meat tenderizer product [15:48] GOPMark: I understand that like most things Japanese, it is quick and efficient. [15:48] GOPMark: However, it cannot handle large quantities. [15:48] hodgehatesyou: yes, and comes with special "magic japanese steak dust" [15:48] GOPMark: Forgot about that. [15:48] hodgehatesyou: X'D [15:48] GOPMark: The American model has lots of torque, and can buzz through a whole cow. [15:49] hodgehatesyou: yes, but its big and cumbersome [15:49] hodgehatesyou: while the japanese one can make prime cuts of beef [15:49] GOPMark: Yup. And made with lousy materials. [15:49] hodgehatesyou: razy americans... [15:49] GOPMark: But a whole cow..... [15:49] hodgehatesyou: very true [15:49] GOPMark: Just toss bessie in, and bang! [15:50] GOPMark: One button. [15:50] hodgehatesyou: beef steaks! [15:50] GOPMark: The Japanese one needs programmed in Ada. [15:50] hodgehatesyou: yea but you can customize it to your needs [15:50] hodgehatesyou: which is good for the garage tuner [15:50] GOPMark: And they can't seem to figure out how to write a manual in english. [15:50] GOPMark: Very true. [15:50] hodgehatesyou: however, it can only be programmed by someone in california [15:50] GOPMark: lol [15:51] hodgehatesyou: and costs $5000 to reprogram [15:51] GOPMark: Some old Japanese guy has to do it. [15:51] hodgehatesyou: cause apexi wont sell the $20 software [15:51] hodgehatesyou: damn japanese always outsmarting us! [15:51] GOPMark: lol [15:51] hodgehatesyou: well that was funny that should be all you need to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn't be a difficult install. the ECU is tucked behind the passenger side dash pad if i remember correctly. there's quite a bit of wiring in there for the dash electronics. a service manual will have some wiring diagrams...

Hwilli1647545487 Posted December 17, 2003 Report Share Posted December 17, 2003 Originally posted by drifter: thats the only two thing i have to tap into I'd have to look at the install instructions on the unit. I am not actually famiilar with the exact product that you are using, but it just sounds like a monitoring tool. The Apexi units I have in my car (AFC, and AVC-R) have several monitoring functions, that are all tapped off the ECU. Airflow, Tach, 02, TPS etc. I can't tell you exactly without seeing the unit/instructions, but again, most of those units are fairly easy to install if you understand basic wiring. If you are not comfortable doing that type of install i am sure that someone on here would help you for a beer, small fee, lunch, whatever. and if not, there are a few shops in town that I'm sure would be willing to do the work for you smile.gif .
