I'm after getting the dial sweep on start up installed on my car (06 Hawk Spec C). I was meant to be getting it done at Litchfields last week but they don't do it any more as the company they used to send it out to get done at went bust.

Does anyone know any other company that does it?

 

is it something like this you want?

Litchfield used to charge £90 to 'activate' it, I might be wrong but I don't think I need new clocks???

But, Yes, that's what I'm after.

 

£90 for a 3sec thing :S

 

thats pricey for just a dial sweep!

 

How come a Hawk 06 spec C doesn't do that anyway? My 07 RB320 does it.

 

Exactly what I was thinking! Why would you pay £90 for that?

 

And why would it be de-activated if as stated above there the same clocks that do sweep.

 

We all know how many tiny little adjustments subaru liked to play with between different model versions so who knows?

 

Can't put a price on a dial sweep...

 

Its a standard feature, it just has to be activated, cant remember how to do it though but its pretty simple (something to do with the trip button??)

Try this post 50 on the 2nd page, it was standard on all JDM's from 2003 onwards including the Spec C (my MY03 17 inch use to do it and my MY03 limited does it).

no chance of that working on a classic is there??

 

No, only fitted to MY03 JDM's onwards and MY06 onwards UK i think.

Tony

 

Tony will this work on my spec c? It doesnt at the moment.....

That thread you pointed out states 'excluding sti spec c'
Yet in your above post you said it used to work on both your cars

Confused

 

It use to H (standard JDM map, no tweaks or anything), yes it should work if you follow that setup.
It was one of the first things i noticed when I had that Spec C

Tony

 

ahhh ok cheers bud i will have a play tomorrow

I know on the uk cars the beeps goes if the battery goes flat, maybe it just needs re-doing

However i just checked my clocks and I can confirm that it only has one dial/**** which Is the trip computer one on the right. There is no other dial/****/rev to the left of the cluster

 

Yup its just the trip one you need to play with, it beeps at you when set I think.

Tony

 

I had the same problem on my Blob Spec C. Correct clocks but didn't sweep. What you need is a code entered onto the chip on the back of the clocks.

There is a chap near me who has the computer software to do it but would need your clocks and a set that does the sweep so he can copy the code that activates the sweep and enter it on yours.

 

Bloody special cars lmao

 

They don't sweep on the Spec C, weight saving measure

Pmsl

 

im not that fussed about it, i just thought if it was a diy job i would do it, cheers though andy

 

But tony (who owned my car from new) is saying it used to do it, I wish i never started this now lmao. Tempted to go outside and start the car and try it

 

They do sweep

Tony

 

If I remember correct it cost me £50 for them to do mine.
If something is meant to do something but it doesn't it bug the **** out of me till I get it to work lol.

 

I call bullsh*t but here is the infamous post #50:

Its 1am and we are sat here talking about this rofl, i was always under the impression spec c doesnt sweep, or have a temp sensor. Tony i wonder if litcho initially enabled it on mine and then after battery went flat/or over time/or after remap the function went away.

Looking at them instructions it seems to mention two dials/*****, rev and trip, where as i only have the one trip as per picture (standard spec c clocks)

 

"H" mine has the outside temp and rev/gear change limiter thing on it but mine is the spec c WR limited. What ever spec of spec c there is non of them came with the sweep working but after I spoke to a couple of people I was told the is a code that needs programed into the chip on the back of the clocks that stores you mileage, dccd etc and all you need to do is have someone enter the code. This is what I did and works a treat.

For the people who have Spec C's and have these clocks but they don't sweep all you need is a code to get them to sweep.

 

I kind of like the fact it doesnt do it (different to the rest of the jdm sti's) cheers for clearing that up though
Btw get some pics up on a sepperate thread, nice rare car you have there
