  1. You need an ecu, piggyback or otherwise, to get the right amount of fuel coming out of bigger injectors The resistor pack solves a separate issue - the difference between low-impedance (e.g. stock 550s) and high-impedance (e.g. stock 440s) injectors - so that the ecu sees the same resistance whichever type you have. (That's the simple explanation ).
  2. Is Heckler's guide to fitting 550s any help? If you haven't seen it already, there's a pic at step 13 showing how to trim the lugs off the 550s to make them fit the 440's connectors. If that's not enough I've got some somewhere I could take pic of later
  3. I'd plant rhodedendrons all the way round and call it the Pink Hell
  4. What... smaller than the White Horse? Good idea though
  5. Sure they'll be open, and no worries about student only nights because they're all gone for the summer Personally I hate the centre of town pubs - bland + grumpy doormen - but a couple of minutes walk away there's a good selection. I guess it might not be quite your cup of tea, but worth having a pint in the Turf, down an alleyway next to the Bridge of Sighs. Buses stop on the High St close by, so you could start there and then walk west along Broad St to get to George St which is where the horrible ones are... ... but along the way you could take in the Kings Arms and the White Horse so you couldn't care less by the time you get there
  6. Lol, I live here and I don't know anymore But probably avoid anything close to where you'll be - littlemore/blackbird leys/rose hill, not the best areas! There's a pub down by the lock in Sandford (just over the A4074) with a garden if the weather holds. Lots of pubs on Cowley Road, and of course in the town centre, or check Daily Info if you fancy a gig or whatever. What sort of place are you after? I hear there's sometimes dogging on Shotover hill....
  7. Try ZoomPlayer, it installs what you need for loads of formats, saves a lot of hassle
  8. Just had a look at the EPC and price list... it says the switch is 30, and the knob is 25!!! But that's just the knob... the button and a couple of other plastic bits add on another 35 Very strange pricing lol
  9. I can bring some, but I probably won't be there til mid-morning
  10. No idea how you get to it once you've got the stick off, but if you can, you might find the switch has just come a bit loose, meaning you can't push it in far enough to latch. Worth a look anyway
  11. Thought as much... well that or a late one last night
  12. Thanks Peter, and well done for getting me down to my absolute lowest price!
  13. Ah, I see. I guess there is a way to run it straight from a command line, but then you wouldn't have debugging. So alternatively, you could set up the redirection at the start of your program. Looking around I found this example, which uses pipes and 'fdToHandle': http://book.realworldhaskell.org/read/systems-programming-in-haskell.html So maybe something like: outfile stdouthdl I'm not sure if there is a function called createFile, or what it's arguments would be, in Haskell, but you can probably guess what I'd expect it to do!
  14. I've never played with Haskell, but since it's in a DOS window could you redirect the output to a file with '> file' at the end of the command? Like... ghc foo > foo.txt
  15. I know it's a old thread, but it's become 'the' injector adapter thread to my mind, anyway it is a good one So here's a pic of how I modded my Ultimate to contain the adapter... I soldered the resistors onto the connector pins on the back of the pcb, not as neat looking perhaps, but it leaves the jumpers clear in case they're needed (they aren't on a Supra, but if you ever wanted to sell it, you wouldn't need to take these out).
  16. Don't know if it's mandatory for Supra. IF I remember right, the later revisions have the adapter built in (rev E or F?). Otherwise, it's easy to make one as it's just 6 resistors. edit: this thread reveals all: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=128418&highlight=injector+adapter
  17. D'oh! I was thinking of the Soarer, which only has the second cat so the sensor is at the end of it. Does makes more sense, I was wondering how it managed to get pulled out without eating 2 inches off the bottom of the car first!!
  18. As above, but if you have the 2nd cat in then isn't there now a hole in it where this was?
  19. I just don't get the joke....... [ATTACH]96493[/ATTACH]
  20. I wish he hadn't bumped this, I was soooo close Would it have been so hard to take 2kg of wires out you half-assed monkeys! Or did you want to keep the cruise control?
  21. Great, thanks Shame you can't make it though big problems? Let me know your payment details by PM and I'll sort it straight away
  22. I used to design and assemble small quantities of surface mounted circuit boards by hand With the right tools, it's easier than the through-hole stuff - just plop a bit of solder paste on each pad, use a vacuum pen to place the bits, then bung it in the oven
