Welcome Ivan

Hope you enjoy the site and glad you have joined us.

You say Popo is a member too ! Thats cool - isn't he the guy with the major website that lists masses of info and mods/work he has done to his car ?

[Spirit]

Is this the Popo you mean ?

Just visited Popo's site. Those rear lights are fantastic. Do they create them for the Legnum as well as the Galant???

Just kidding Bro MTB, don't take it seriosly

I though it will have more work to do at the rear instead of the front because the rear antiroll bar goes through the AYC and final drive gear.... not expect that it is the opposite...why it takes so long at the front ?

After installed, how do you feel ?

What is the problem of your e-manage ??

yeah just the opposite. in fact the manual says it should take 30 mins for the rear job and 1 hr for the front. there is enough room for the anti-roll bar to twist around at the rear above the ayc and gear. all the technician did was move it a little this way and that and it came out fairly easily!

the front job was different. the vertical axle, front pipe, gear box support and two other brackets were all in the way. the technician first tried to remove the brackets and gearbox support only and see if the old bar could be yanked out. nay. eventually the vertical axle has to be loosened. actually the manual says the front pipe should be removed too!

more bumpy than before, that is my first impression. still no chance to test the effect properly. rainy days and slippery grounds, dont wanna push it too far for the time being!

ah, the e-manage! there is a software and firmware conflict between the e-manage and my boost controller and the setting is not edittable now. will have to wait until the upgrade software arrives before the boost controller and the e-manage can recognize each other! and imagine that both of the them are trust INSERT INTO post VALUES (greddy) products! :Cry1:

at ao's rxxing, yau ma tei. hk$3.2k all inclusive. they spent some 4 hours on my car so i guess that's worth it.

nay first time both the e-manage and the boost controller were installed they could communicate with each other. but thats it! 2nd or subsequent communication never worked. they have replaced the e-manage and boost controller for me just to test if its a hardward problem, installation problem or setup problem. no solution.

eventually someone capable of speaking fluent japanese called up the hotline of trust in japan and double-confirmed all procedures were correct. then trust-japan asked one final question what software and firmware version ao's was using and WOH-LA! trust-japan is using firmware 1.29 with support tool 1.20 and ao's firmware 1.25 with support tool 1.10 and this is the origin of incompatibility. now waiting for ao's to upgrade everything...:INSERT INTO post VALUES (
