Team3S: VPC Wiring help
I thought about it and I already have the wiring
loom for the fcon and Gcc
so I need to know exactly where I wire the VPC into
the ECU.
If anyone has the VPC, it would be great if I could get a picture of
the
wiring setup.
Thanks
Henry

Team3S: infinity stereo / which changers?
I know I ask a lot of mundane
questions, but bear with me.. it's
fairly short..
can anyone
verify absolutely which pioneer model changers work with our
double-din
infinity systems? I know CDX-M30 has been mentioned, but I
have seen a
CDX-M40, CDX-M50, and CDX-M100.. will any "M" series
(meaning
the M bus I assume) work?
maybe this would be interesting for the
FAQ? (I went through the
archives, so I hope I didn't just miss the
info..)
please reply privately, and I'll be happy to provide any
responses for
the FAQ if people are
interested..
thanks!

Subject: Team3S: Off
topic, Fl Gathering...advanced notice
Hello everybody. Mark your
calenders for the beginning of March, 2000 2
weeks before the 12 hours of
Sebring. There will be a 3/S gathering at
the track, and all are invited to
come! HSR (Historic sportscar Racing)
will have a tour stop there, and this
will be a great opportunity to
check out old race cars up close and personal.
Last year, I saw Geoff
Brabham's Nissan GTP car, old NASCARS, and some truly
Vintage stuff like
Mini-Coopers. The car owners are very accomodating, and
will let you get
right up and look at, take pictures of, and drool over the
cars. Maybe
we can learn something. The Nissan GTP car runs 3 bars of boost
when
qualifying, and 2.5 when racing. How? This would be a great chande
to
learn and see these older cars in action. We can also (for a few
bucks
extra) take a lap on the track, and a whole group of S/3 cars in a
line
would be a sight to behold! Any questions, please email me Privately!
I would love to see you guys there!

due to the

I was slow
responding to this thread because I wanted to get
a WEB site set up with some
of the data that I have collected
over the last few months on this
subject.
I have some interesting sounds recorded from the knock
sensor and
some spectrum analyzer output that some of you might find
interesting. I also have some info. on how to connect to the
knock
sensor without loading it down. Check it out:
http://home.netcom.com/~bsundahl/knock/sound/KnockSounds.htmDon't
spend too much time trying to find an oscilloscope, you
won't see
much. It's a lot like looking at any other complex
sounds on a scope:
there is a lot of signal there, but nothing
distinctive. An audio
amplifier is a lot more useful. It is
interesting just what you can
hear on the knock sensor. I just
realized last week that I can hear the fuel
shut off when coasting!
What I can NOT hear is knock. At least not
that corresponds
reliably with the data logger.
My original goal was
to build some sort of knock meter, or even
a better knock filter for the
ECU, but now I am not so sure I
can do it.
A question for Todd: is
there a simple input for knock on the
microcontroller (after the filter),
which could be tapped and
brought out to some sort of gage or external
logger? I would be
very interested in seeing exactly what comes out of
this filter.
This is the first time that I have tried to use my WEB
space, so
let me know if something does not work right. (Do all
browsers
support .PNG format these days?)
I expect this to create a
lot more questions than it answers,
but at least it gives you some idea what
you are getting in to.

Subject: Team3S:
infinity stereo / which changers?
OK, this would be some good info
because I went to several high-end AV
stores, and talked with Mitsubishi
about this. I have a '95 base model with
the infinity 6 speaker
system. It has the 200 watt power amp, and the 6
disc changer.
The head unit from that year only had a cassette in the dash.
The newer
models actually have a single CD, and cassette. My goal is that
I
wanted to just put a newer model head unit in there because I want
the
changer, and a single-CD in dash. Well Mitsu. said that the new
head units
by themselves (as in not sold with a car) are $2000.
Basically they really
try to discourage selling head units indiviually
:). So I go to several
high-end AV shops in town to see about just
getting a head unit to work with
everything else. They said no
after-market head unit will work with the 6
disc changer (even though it is a
Pioneer) because the OEM ones for the
dealers use specialized connections for
their head units. They also said
that even if I got a new head unit and
disc changer, they couldn't use the
power amp because of the same
reason. So basically it would cost me $1500
to get a new head unit,
changer, and equivalent power amp. So the only
thing I could keep would
be the speakers.
I personally think this is ludicrous, and there's got to
be a way to connect
a newer head unit to that disc changer and power amp, but
I don't know where
to go for this? Any suggestions from anybody who's
had to deal with this
before?

RE: Team3S: Water Injection / temperatures
:> anyone tried water
wetter from Redline to help reduce engine temps?

:Water wetter is a
coolant (addon ?) and will keep the engine

this is not a problem and
:therefore may not help a lot if any.

WW doesnt exactly help an overheat issue, as it does heat
localization in the
cooling jackets.
WW prevents cavitation in the
cooling jakcets, which causes localized hot spots
on the cylinder walls.
It basically acts as a wetting agent for heat transfer. Because
water with
antifreeze is far from a perfect heat-transfer liquid, the metal
CAN create a
bubble of steam on the jacket wall itself. This is
difficult to cool quickly
and make go away, and at the same time raises the
temps in that spot of the
cylinder wall greatly.
A second way to help
prevent this, is a higher pressure radiator cap.
Cavitation is a result of
pressure/temperature math, at a certain point water
will vaporize.
The
perfect combination for coolant, is 100% distilled water. But being
that
some of us expereince SOME freezing, a bi-yearly flush using A/F in the
winter
months, and a pure water with a few bottles of WW in the summer is
optimal.
SWW includes agents to prevent corrosion from uses with
different metals in the
system, a lubrication agent for your water pump shaft
and seals, and looks like
kool-aid too!
Ive been on this procedure for
about 4 years on my Supra, and Im consistently
about 20Hp and 30Lbs of torque
above where I "should" be on the MOD levels Im
at.

The new Kenwood DPX-510 is the best for
3kgt, it have a single CD, and
cassette. But it doesn't work with stock
changer and amp.
Also, you must to replace all infinity speakers, because you
couldn't use
the new ampl with old speakers sistem (not "speakers",
but really "speakers
sistem").
