Haltech – Engine Management Systems ECU Software & Firmware

you need the ECU manager, keep in mind you DO NOT want to update your ECU's firmware without backing up the version of the firmware AND software first.

the reason I say this is your ECU is probably on some old software, I assume the software will come up and tell you what version you need as soon as you attempt to connect.

It's weird that all these VCU's seem to be going... the one I sent to WA went as well (apparently) yet I tested it here before it left and it was perfect :|

wow, 3sx have the VCU at $1k by the time you pay freight.....fooook!

wow, that's not the center diff I don't think (as West Aust Said)

take the car to a normal mechanic's shop and see if they can test diffs....should be able to just rotate the tyres and see if there are any noises or binding, if something is really fooked letting the oil out should see chunky shiny goodness.

some more reading material :p

Stealth 316 - Mitsubishi 3000GT AWD System

currently making my brain explode, hoping I can get the one I sent to WA back to take apart :D

from what I can tell...RPW might be right....looks like inside the center diff housing, the power is transmitted through the planetary gears which have the output shaft locked to them, and into the sun gear, from what I can see, the VCU balances it's amount of lock between the sungear and the front output shaft...

in other news..

I just got another lesson. John= dumb, rural and dinosaur. Tune up for me is carefully check plugs, leads, timing etc. Motor purring sweetly = good to go.
Got it now! Modern tune up. WOT= Blow all cobwebs out, hope she holds together, check and adjust car brain.
well you see, Scotty's Brain has never quite been right since installation :p
