    Hehe I mounted mine using a hacksaw, a drill, a pair of sceatares and a stanly knife... it took ages, I needed a jigsaw really. I assume you connect them into the same place where the front speakers are connected, but I'm sure someone will reply with a more specific answer. EDIT...

    Febuary ECU Project

    Acceleration is easy to calculate, G-Forces requires acceleromiters I think (oh how ironic). EDIT: hmm Force=Mass*Acceleration, Force*Velocity=EnginePower, in this equasion acceleration is the tricky bit, it would need to be calculated before hand from previous speed. It wouldn't be accurate...

    Febuary ECU Project

    Hmm it was just an idea. I'll get my uni work out of the way by feb and start on the main idea... hopefully it'll go well :P. EDIT: Watts are Joules/seccond, Hp is converted to via watts (700 and something watts = 1hp). Distance Traveled and the weight of the car will give the power of the...

    Hmm I was thinking more of using the data from the ECU to form an, inaccurate, but close-ish HP, it would probably be HP at the flywheel if that's where RPM is read?

    accident

    True, I hadn't been driving long though and I was trying to watch infront of him and wasn't concentrating on the distance between us. But that was kinda my point, sometimes you don't remember simple things :P. Faulty ABS? Bloody hell that's ... odd.

    Febuary ECU Project

    February ECU Project I had an idea for a project, since I'm none too good at the mechanics side and alittle straped for cash (and knee deep in uni work). I thaught it a good idea, and useful, to be able to read the cars ECU data (and possibly later write) without a laptop and that, frankly...

    Stupid pedestrians

    Sue? I hate all this crap about sueing :/ it's so american so sue everyone for everything -_-. Also technically she'd sue your insurance company for insuring you would she not? There'd also be no way she'd have any leverage at all :P, it'd be thrown out of court if she did indeed walk/run into...

    accident

    Unlucky, it's not easy to remember simple things like keeping your distance if you're following a friend and concentrating on that. I do remember now as my friend very much values his car and shouted at me for following so closely ^_^ (I wasn't really that close). Actually thinking time distance...

    Airfilter

    Wrong area but hey n/m, if you need to replace the filter you just take the lid off not the whole filter. And that's just some steel clips that surround it, push them away and down and they should come off easily, putting them back on is also easy.
