Calling JTi for a question
Any chance setting a GB going please @ @TimH :)
|
Hey, happy to do that!
What would you like to see on the GB? |
lol
ISWYDT |
I'm sure there would be interest in such items as:
Toucan Shiftlight Syvecs Expansion Unit Coilpack conversion looms AVCS conversion looms 3 port boost solenoids Sensor packs Pre99 boost solenoid harness clutch switch for flatfoot shift etc... If there is enough interest then I would like The clutch switch Boost solenoid harness And version 3 MY97 coil pack conversion loom |
I know that Toucan is obviously designed to work with Alcatek... But can it also be made to work with its 'predecessor,' Simtek "II" (what I have), somehow?
|
:D
I'll post up a list tomorrow; happy to help fellow Scoobynetters get some good prices on some good stuff :thumb: |

Syvecs AlcaTek (including upgrsde of original SimTek to be an AlcaTek) MoTeC MBE Link Vi-PEC Simtek 2 (GEMS) So that's a "yes" I hope! |
Damn, after all this time, I only thought it was for Alcatek! :wall: Had no idea. :cuckoo:
I know it was defo the revised version of the board. The late, great JGM sold it to me and mapped it, etc. I know it was the one that could be exchanged for Alcatek (remember that fiasco?). So I 'think' I have Simtek 2 then. |
That won't be a Simtek 2 - that's the ECU that Steve Simpson now does, made by GEMS; the original SimTek, that JGM regularly installed/mapped, evolved to be the AlcaTek. Any such "original" SimTek can become an AlcaTek with a firmware upgrade, and it then supports Toucan.
The upgrade is best coordinated through a mapper/dealer. |

The upgrade is best coordinated through a mapper/dealer. So, as it stands, my Simtek cannot directly communicate with Toucan i.e. it MUST be upgraded (exchange board?) to Alcatek, first? |
Its a firmware upgrade rather than board swap but, yes, needs to be done before Toucan will work with it.

Does anyone still offer the upgrade. It used to be 70 quid IIRC? But, back in the day, no-one seemed to take responsibility for it... As said, it turned into a bit of mess, from a customer relations POV.

I could be interested in a Toucan
|
Interested too :thumb:

Think it was roughly £100 when I did mine las year |
Ooohhhh shift light :luvlove:
Add flex fuel to this heavily discounted list :D Don't need owt else as I've bought everything else already from Tim. |
Not had a chance to get up a GB list yet - but not forgotten. Will add as many things as I can - if not everything lol.
SimTek upgrade can be a PITA but best is to get it done through a mapper, such as Bob Rawle or Martyn Jeffery (others too of course!) as they do seem to have the best success in getting it onto the AlcaTek radar. |

Yes.
|
Looks like a perfect fit, i know where mine will be going :thumb:
|
Hmmm, that location does look interesting.
|
Would I be able to put a toucan display on my car?

A bit more work involved for you mate, i just need to fit the later dash now with the bigger air vents, another job to add to the list lol
May look at dropping it in lower below stereo and cut a custom gap for it |

You can put one there...but whether it does anything depends on what ECU you have :D
I will be treating myself to a toucan once you get the group buy going :thumb: |

I know, the classic vents are no way that bigger.
