Hey guys, new member here. Most recent thing I've done is swapped my side blinkers for a pair of smoked ones. I'm looking into a mivec controller at the moment. Does anyone have any experience with those? Good/bad idea or a nudge in the right direction in terms of purchasing one? Thanks!

Your car already has a MIVEC controller - that is what the ECU does
- Self tuned - work in progress - tune revision #16_03
- GS 3 port controlled wooooot :)
- Lowered on Kings

- Awesome self installed Alpine/JL Audio sound system

I meant something you can plug into the computer and regulate the rpm at which the mivec kicks in

Sorry photos aren't the best quality, I used my phone.

I got a new head unit today. It's a digital receiver (so it's got no CD function) that has USB/iPod/Aux functionality and that really does the job for me. I can put Bluetooth in but I need an adapter, but I do know it can play music off Android phones if I download a certain app. It's got a remote control with it which is pretty cool. :)

99 bucks! The adapter to plug it in the car cost me an extra 20; was supposed to be 25 but the place I bought it off from gave me a deal and I was cool with it.

Image

And here it is installed on the car. It isn't the best fit, definitely but I already knew about it when I got it (got it for 20 from Justin, thanks again dude!)
Pretty happy with it actually cos it's not really bad at all (imo). I'll eventually buy one that fits much better, but this does it until then.

Image

..Yes it is playing a K-Pop song when I took that picture.

Total cost: 139. I'm a happy broke uni student! :D

They were probably just wondering why you didn't buy a real turbo car. :p
