InitialDave posted:OBDave II There are OBD2 libraries for the Arduino but they are for pulling data from obd to Arduino, you want it the other way around. It's not impossible but this library would be the bulk of the work. If you got that working (or paid someone to write it for you) then you'd want your Arduino in an engine-bay suitable enclosure and a sack of sensors chosen for their cost/ruggedness/suitable sensing range. Then you'd map inputs to the predefined PIDS such as: PID_ENGINE_LOAD – Calculated engine load (%) PID_COOLANT_TEMP – Engine coolant temperature (°C) PID_ENGINE_LOAD – Calculated Engine load (%) PID_ABSOLUTE_ENGINE_LOAD – Absolute Engine load (%) PID_TIMING_ADVANCE – Ignition timing advance (°) PID_ENGINE_OIL_TEMP And whatever reverse Arduino to obd library you were using would just mean anything you connect to the OBD2 port would see the Arduino system as a standard ecu, hopefully without any codes because why would you add that functionality you masochistic? You could go a step further and eliminate the actual OBD2 port and Bluetooth dongle and having the Arduino pretend all that exists using onboard Bluetooth.

Anyone used an Aliexpress/chinese/ebay Turbo? if I buy one is it likely to explode and kill my engine

cakesmith handyman posted:Arduino Just found a project report from someone who appears to have built this sort of thing at uni, so will see if that appears at all helpful. That's a simulator rather than showing actual data though. I also found that a company called Freematics makes an emulator as an off the shelf thing, but again, it's to fake outputs for testing, rather than giving information from sensors, and it's like $300. Just going to have to read a bit and see where I think it fits in terms of my knowledge level.

I imagine that reading your typical legacy vehicle sensors using arduino should be pretty easy. Do you need to worry about the whole of OBD2 to send this to your dash device/datalogger. Can't you just deal with the CAN-BUS signal? It looks like there are can-bus shields available for arduinos. This idea would be pretty neat for legacy vehicles. I had a scangauge permenantly mounted in my Aygo to supplement the poverty spec dash (speedo only - no other gauges). It would be quite cool to be able to use this in an old car

If it's checking an expected value/position in data you'd just set as null or zero by default.

So a friend of mine who knows I'm wanting to buy a GS300 in order to nab the 2JZ from it told me that they know someone who's selling one for silly cheap because they binned it in the ice and now the bodywork's hosed. Dude wanted £275 for it. Of course I find out about this too late, it's sold. Kinda bummed said friend didn't say "yeah I know someone who'll 100% take that off your hands"

Sorry to interrupt, but is anyone here from Salt Lake City? A friend of mine is moving there and wants to know what she's getting into for the used car market. I'm assuming it's not all rusted shitboxes because it's the desert but is there anything to look out for?

Today has been rough. In preparing for any emotional torrent tomorrow might bring i figured i was in a good place mentally. Then i got blindsided by the ghost of another dead friend and im sitting here dwelling on what his mother told me at the funeral and i just want to go home and hide under my bed.

I'm assuming it's not all rusted shitboxes because it's the desert but is there anything to look out for? Hey friend! I live in a city in the south end of the salt lake valley (~17 miles south of the main city) Generally the cars do not rust anything like you find in the rust belt. We generally have surface corrosion on most modern cars. If a car was poorly repaired in the past then you can get cancerous rust on body panels. The roads are decent but not great so depending on age and miles it might need suspension stuff and/or an alignment. There are a few top notch places I can recommend for alignments. I have PMs so you can ask me anything.

FWIW, my car is originally from Utah, and like Somewhat Heroic said, it has some surface rust on fasteners and the exhaust, but nowhere else. It spent late 2005 to late 2012 there before the PO moved to Texas. The only annoying issue I've had to deal with is the rotors were rusted to the hubs when I changed the rotors at ~100k; I had to use a sledgehammer to break them free.

My one any only experience with the SLC car market is that in 2007, like half the legacy gt manual wagons for sale in the US were somehow located there.

Nah he's just had everything else break. But the bad turbo thing only seems to come up on the legacy gt forums while imo it's not a common issue at all on subarus.

How reliable are modern Subarus anyway? I've read reports that range from "blown head gaskets at 100K" to "as reliable as any other modern Japanese car." My work just bought a bunch of 2017 Foresters this year and while nice (although the interior feels a bit cheap for the price) our record for reliable vehicles is awful. Lots of stop and go and 30-40 starts per day, 5-6 days a week is rough. We had several Toyota Matrices make it to over 200K without major incident. We then were issued Ford Focii that ate transmissions, and then Chevy Trax's which are starting to blow turbos. Previa_fun fucked around with this message at 04:12 on Jan 11, 2018 |

I get the feeling he's looking specifically at newer stuff, since he said "work" and "2017". But yeah, the Vibe is basically a Matrix that fell out of the ugly tree and hit a few branches on the way down. Mechanically they're the same, except for the HVAC components (similar to what GM did on the Geo version of the Corolla) and maybe the radio. They can be had much cheaper than the Matrix version, because dead brand lol.

Not sure if it's still a problem on the newer ones.

also there's a campaign for replacing subaru CVTs that failed too early a coworker dropped like 8 or 9k on replacing the cvt in his outback through the dealer and recently was contacted by SoA about being refunded for some/all of the money he spent replacing it

For being what is supposedly a rare car I see them around what I’d say is often. Just the other day I even saw a Legacy GT SpecB. There are so many Subaru’s out here.

So I fell a week ago and smashed my shoulder. The pain from it started off rather deep in my shoulder and slowly moved up and into my chest. I've tolerated it until this sunday when it got much worse. I tried relaxing it with Tylenol and a heating pad monday and tuesday to not much avail. Gave up and went to the ER after work tonight fearing a broken rib/shoulder/collar bone. Xray shows no obvious breaks or other cause so I got a pile of pain pills and a referral to an orthopedic doctor. Its the same doctor that hosed up his billing last time I went and stuck me with medical bills on my credit report despite them showing paid. Time to go doctor shopping I guess.

Pray you don't end up with a frozen shoulder, I'm going through it now and it's loving hell. Have never had unrelenting pain like this and it's not ending anytime soon. If it ends up being that let me know and I can tell you what NOT to do at least.

Something about bad turbos something something Pistons x2 (replaced at the same time) Case 3rd gear 5th gear, somehow I also had a machining issue on the rebuild with the new case on the heads, but I don't think I can blame subaru for that (and it was fixed for free). Also, the TMIC, boost leaks, and a knock sensor (the only time my engine ever detected knock, it turns out it wasn't knocking, for once, go subaru!) I am considering replacing the turbo as I have almost 150k mi, which is apparently a lot for them, I dunno. Bike thread people think I just break bikes. I'm bad at anything that goes. edit: I also broke my loving knuckle. Like shop was surprised my wheel didn't fall off on the way there (fun times: I heard a very, very light clunk in my suspension on my way back from vegas, continued the drive home, fuuuuuuuck, coulda died). Some subaru dealer apparently stripped out the threads in the knuckle before, secured the bolts with nuts, which changed the stresses and almost killed me.

Had a half decent christmas vacation. The Oregon coast in winter is still amazing, people always laugh when I tell them I spend New Year's at the beach. This was the sunset on New Year's Eve: And I experimented with nighttime long exposure stuff. There was a full moon so I stayed up to catch it setting a couple nights in a row. This one turned out pretty good, the full res version is even less grainy, but regardless of grain it captures the view pretty well. 4 days with the family there was super relaxing, then we went back to my hometown to find my dad is still employing a contractor that ripped him off for over a year. My sister and I were pretty pissed. I spent the last 3 days of my vacation depressed about the bad decisions he's making and it's also ruining the house I grew up in. Sigh.

CommieGIR posted:At this rate (and which Australia's use of Brown Coal), they just need to wait and that'll happen on its own. Brown coal is not the major coal at all - Hazelwood is gone and You Yangs 1 and 2 are probably not going to last beyond 10 years with the way things are going (only VIC used brown coal and only three stations remain that use it). NSW/QLD Black is the major coal and it is a HELL of a lot better and energy dense (still complete poo poo of course). And even those are being lined up for either conversion or shutdown, wether or not AGW's like it or not. Wether the current govt likes it or not as well too, coal is on the way out as a power source, esp with SA proving battery backups work and VIC / NSW now looking to get battery arrays of their own, let alone the new solar thermal plants and solar arrays going up all over the place. There are no new coal plants being seriously considered (hell, the banks wont finance them so no one can build one) and not one will be replaced with coal as they reach their expected lifetime due to the fact every other power source is now cheaper. South Australia has NO coal fired stations at all. The big problem is the exports to SE Asia. Again, that's mostly black coal, rather than brown.
