NISMO Gauge Cluster Install Video
nice! For some reason I found the Nismo cluster more OEM looking than the OEM one . You need an engine that rev to 10 000RPM now! -
My daily pearl white
A bit more done today . The good news is fault codes can be read, displayed on screen and cleared. The not so good news (but not that bad) is that I am getting a bit confused with how to translate the reply from the ECU when querying for fault codes. The communication with the ECU is done via...- bzh kevin

I turns out the fault code list I was using was incomplete . I found a better one in the forum's technical section : S15 fault codes (looking there from the start would have been a good idea🤦♀️). Fault 85 is listed as 'VTC Solenoid Valve Circuit ' . I find it strange as there is really no...- bzh kevin

I choose to limit what I can display to : - air flow meter voltage - battery voltage - coolant temp - injector duty (calculated from injection time and RPM) - lambda sensor voltage - oil pressure (not available from the ECU but can be taken from the oil pressure switch) - ignition timing...- bzh kevin

I tested the code on the raspberry pi . I was a bit shocked it worked straight away with the touch screen . I am not used to my program working first try :ROFLMAO: . Next I need to make sure I can get a stable 5v power supply in the car with a little delay after the car is turned off to let the...- bzh kevin

After printing another set of brackets the screen now fits . Things are getting there on the software side too . Most of the display/UI is working . It is only running on my laptop at the moment and read values on a simulated ECU that generate random values . The next step will be to run the...- bzh kevin

Thanks ! I haven't seen the Car SOS episode . I will try to see if I can find it when I have 5 minutes . I did watch the MightyCarMods one . The Lotus dash is really cool . I just assumed it just came from the V6 exige but after doing a quick resaerch it looks like they don't come with a...- bzh kevin

A bit more done today . I finished pulling all the remaining wires from under the carpet . The software side is giving me a bit of a hard time as I use an old game engine to handle the display and it is proving to be not as straight forward as I was expecting . After a couple of hours battling...- bzh kevin

I did a bit of work on the design of the gauges . I want something easy to read and OEM looking(-ish) . Although I don't mind flashy gauges in race car like interior I am not a huge fan of them in a stock looking ones. After experimenting with various design I settled with this one : The...- bzh kevin

I finally took the decision to get rid of the head unit that came with the car from Japan and replace it with something useful . I am terrible at looking at my gauges/dashboard when running on track so I decided to have a bit of fun and design a system that can display custom gauges and set...- bzh kevin

I haven't posted anything to this thread in a long time . The car is still stock and running well . I booked a drift day in Santa pod earlier this week . Couldn't commit to the faster part of the track as I was a bit worried about damaging the car.- bzh kevin

s15 market value
@Celicasaur Tell me about it! The first car I bought in the UK was an s14 zenki, I paid £1000 for it in 2008 then a year later I got rid of it and bought an s13 for £1600 . It is just crazy how much they are going for now . Not complaining too much about it though . It has probably paid for... -

Headlight Restore and Trunk Rattle Fix Video
My boost gauge has a similar issue . The needle slowly goes all the way up then all the way back down when it decides to stop working and never works again unless I turn the car off and on again (usually the car needs to cool down for it to work again) . I tried changing the vacuum hose as well... -
s15 market value
Thanks for the info @Joeh . Definitely not looking to sell . More making sure my insurance would pay enough to get another one if the car ended up being written off . I still daily it so better be safe than sorry . I was expecting the US to drive prices up as they did for Skylines but I wasn't... -
s15 market value
Back in 2015 I was looking for a car that could do a bit of everything from daily commute to the odd track/drift day while still being reliable and cheap-ish to run . I ended up getting a clean stock S15 spec-R aero as it ticked all the boxes and I also wanted another Silvia since I got rid of... -
