EVEN More North West Meeting Pictures.
Gutted we couldn't be there, but you picked the wrong weekend for me. Hope to be there next time to show you all up (except the Lambo of course !)

cutting out at 130mph in top
That probably means you have a convertor box installed. In theory that should raise the limit to 180mph. The code I referred to involves me taking one of my jap spec ecu chips and seeing what the speed limiter has been set to. Far too drunk to do that right now, perhaps during the week ... But I don't think that's your problem.

creaking front suspension - fixed!!
Erm, dunno. Originally they supplied some white stuff, this time I just Castrol Moly that I had kicking around.

How do i get to the dials?
There is a little potentiometer in the speedo that I think adjusts the accuracy ....

Odometer problem
It doesn't take long to get the clocks out. Some of the speedo conversions are done with a little box and then a sticker on the speedo face (I'm not a fan of this) Some can be done wby substituing a resistor in the clocks (then you have to do the ECU as well) Or you can replace with UK spec clocks (and then do the ECu as well)

cutting out at 130mph in top
As standard it will be limited to 112mph (180kph) if the speedo conversion is done in one way then the limit will be raised to 180mph, if it's done by substituing UK spec clocks then the Jap ECU limiter will still take effect, although I would have to check the code to see what the actual number is.

creaking front suspension - fixed!!
Had the same problem myself a couple of months back. Suspension Techniques use a poly bush that seems to go dry after a few years - took it apart, greased it with the normal thick goopy stuff and it was fine afterwards. Sounds AWFUL before though because it resonates through the chassis !

Odometer problem
I can't quite remember how it all works right now, but there is an electric motor in there somewhere and lots of cogs. It's highly likely that if both the odo and the trip have packed up then it's a common problem - mine was the gearing. Not sure about the screws, maybe it's only the jap ones that have the security screw.

Race Technology Performance Meters
I have one, but true to form as with many of my toys, I've never used it in anger ! One day, one day ....

Credit Cards and the Exchange rate
In theory is the rate on the day the transaction was made, but I've never actually checked up on what they do.

Bloody insurance company
If you get a tracker you should be able to move it to your next car. Bummer about the subscription though.

Why of late is there so many auto V man threads?
He'll be lucky if that autobox survives Pete's first couple of road tests, let alone a dyno session ! LOL He'll be round mine for my spare manual box before the car gets home I reckon !! ;)

For those with a Toad ai606 alarm
My alarm (not Toad) used to do this and I turned it off after it locked whilst I was on the outside one morning. Fortunately, I was at home, had my house keys in my pocket and the spare car keys inside the house .....
