  1. No reason why to not test with a battery. I just like to have a known good power supply set to a known maximum current and a known voltage. Also that it's pulled completely from the system it was part of eliminating things like bad grounds, broken wires, etc
  2. I personally like to test everything outside of it's ecosystem to ensure the part is working correctly, then move from there. But that's me
  3. For the clock, I'd pull the clock and test it on a 12v bench power supply if you have one. That will tell you straightaway if it's the clock or something else. This supply should be good enough https://a.co/d/coQSW3t
  4. Against all the advice I got, I put an end mill in a junk Chinese drill press and was able to get myself straightened out
  5. I checked today, they said I can still expect them this week. Not sure how since today is Thursday and they haven't shipped yet
  6. It's most likely my printer and my guessing stick I did get 5 out of 7 holes right though! The other 2 are barely off and... Measuring with my guessing stick and the model, it all matches in measurements. so it was me somewhere that messed up
  7. so close Didn't account for the shrinkage of my 3d parts ah well to find a drill press to fix it
  8. Lemme know what you come up with. I bought a multi pack of sizes and none fit properly
  9. That stinks. I find it strange they wouldn't use similar bushings to what's in the mks or mk1 kits. They do look very nice though.
  10. They called me yesterday and let me know it should be no more than 2 weeks before i receive my subframe and steering rack.
  11. Yea. I'm not terribly pleased at the moment. I'm still waiting for a call back to my voicemails
  12. i just saw that coil pack setup as I view from a computer, that is pretty slick.
  13. I needed a pull up resistor for tach output on my AEM ECU. It's possible you may need to do the same
  14. Well, luckily you received them. I'm on 5 months. One more and it's the heck with them time.
  15. Well, a month or so has long passed. I still haven't received anything from them. I called in the middle of april to see what was up and was told that the following week on Wednesday my order would ship. Since then I've waited patiently and received nothing. Tried to call a few times this week and received no response. Anyone else buy and have a similar experience?
  16. My 3d prints lined up perfectly, here's to hoping that translates to metal. Fictiv offered the best cost on machining my parts with a 1 month lead time. Sendcutsend, protolabs, xometry were all really, really expensive. My local machinist actually offered a better price than fictiv, but he said he wouldn't have time to do it until september as he's having trouble finding help for his shop. Glad he's busy, he's been great over the years.
  17. I finished my design! Im going to compare sendcutsend to local machinist for pricing here's how she looks with a caliper mounted https://photos.app.goo.gl/UhSrn5461KHvJsQa6 I'll rock these for a bit and later start on the ls430 caliper bracket in some time. I probably should have started to design with those as it may have been easier to make in fusion 😜
  18. Not OEM but I've found the blanks randomly at lowes
  19. Nice work, did you get that nice factory bend in to follow the profile of the two side trim pieces?
  20. ya, you are right, i didn't check first, they do have standalones but doubtful anyone has programming kit for it
  21. https://www.ebay.com/itm/134213441894?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=RfcINNRyTqS&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=kG6rHg9PQxm&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  22. Cool site, thanks. I'll see if they can do what I need
