Hi Dan, I've got a question regarding Savvycan + CL1000, I've watched your video on how you select hardware & connect to vehicle, and instantly you're receiving information. I've purchased a low cost can interface [Dauntless Devices in CO], and I'm having no luck in trying to achieve the very basic connection you're able to get with the CSS HW. I'm curious to know if there is an issue with the Vehicle Bus, I'm talking to a MY16 VW Jetta.

I think a gateway is missing in your architecture diagram.

Great video mate, what equipment would you suggest to allow a BMW m57 Ecu to integrate into a Chrysler vehicle canbus?

Hello .. Thank you for the good information on Display Creator. This was very helpful and we managed to get things working after watching this. I would like to see more on how you actually setup the spash startup screen if you have time . Thanks again.

I have moded my DL800 and sent HTG GCU the mech! I got it sent back to me but now HTG is a dead end.. I have to find a new mech and go with CANTCU apparently is almost operating! I've heard you're working with them too. 🤞

My first car was an 85 supra. I was born in 1994 👀👀

Dan, not sure on the date of this post. Is this after our catch up at East Coast? Will watch to confirm and clarify. Can’t wait to see this thing running through the Seacoast!!!

where did you get the pillar pod?

You are the best! And you will get your project working! 👍🏼

Reference your CANBUS Pt1 video did your canbus transmit all the time with the ignition on. I'm looking at an Audi RS4 using SavvyCAN , with the ignition on and the bus is totally silent unless I also plug in VCDS and query a module, then everything seems to work OK. This doesn't seem to reflect what everyone else on KZfaq liike you seems to get a constant data stream from when they first plug in.

This was soooooooooooooo helpful, keep it up...waiting for you to install a PDM :) Thank you,

I’m a former old 1977 Celica GT owner and seeing this Supra warms my heart! When I first came to your channel regarding the Ultima it was nice to see the mix of cars you have !!! I now own a 2006 Lotus Elise original owner and some day would love to cruise next to you while your driving your Supra/Ultima !! Watched every vid by the way and can’t wait for the next ! 😊

Absolutely great video. Great job.

Thank you so much for this. Did you order the CL1000 directly from Denmark? Pretty expensive shipping to Canada for me

Do you have the mesh file. Looking to make something similar for my car. Be nice to see how you did it.

I caught that nice Eastwood powder coating oven🙌 Great job, love that CNC work too!!!

Finally caught up, and what a fantastic series! Project cars have ups and downs, and you do a great job of showing the reality of that, while showing what you can overcome with a drive to learn.

I know I am 3 months late here, but I really recommend mounting these sensitive pressure sensor remotely (run a line from the galley plug to the sensor which is mounted to the chassis). I have seen too many of these sensors fail because of engine vibration.

You may need someone to do a bench reflash on the unit to get the correct software installed. I’m in a trade group with a few dozen technicians that specialize in module reprogramming and it’s crazy what some of these vehicles require. Odis is very particular. You may end up needing a more unorthodox solution at the end of the day. I can see if anyone has ideas about this setup if you’re still searching for a solution.

Just came across your videos last night and have almost watched the whole ultima build 👌👍👍 just wondering where you got the carbon sleeve from as im keen to have a go at a project I've been wanting to do on my lotus 340r 👍👍

I thought of you on Saturday at Goodwood where I saw a number of Ultima's. None were built to the high standard of your work.

Thumb up. Another solid video, Do you do tool reviews? We released a portable air pump. Can we invite you to do a review? If so, How can we connect with you?

If you ever ever would consider selling the Coddington wheels… please let me know! 🙌🏻

After I messaged you on last video about the HTG, I had a feeling it was a no go. Might as well say goodbye to your money but do hope you get a refund. I’m going to at least give my HTG a chance as I already have it and already hacked my tcu 😢. If it doesn’t work, I’ve been looking at maxxecu as the trans controller for my dq500 and Is able to speak to my m150. I’ve heard that even the cheapest ECU will work. It be my next step if the HTG is a fail and will have to buy another dq500 continental tcu fml

Amazing work man keep going 🎉

Dan you are the besttt. Uroš from Slovenia

Winglets…aero benefit?…who cares! It’s not a race car so it’s what looks good and what you like. 👍

My Toeing Eye has a left hand thread, has yours I wonder?

I suggest that to protect the inside of the fenders you just get wheel well liners from a scrap yard cut a suitable chunk out of them and use polyurethane glue to stick them in or glue in some mounting points if you want them removable. You can set them up to shield the fender vents from rocks while still being functional.

If you don´t me asking, why don´t you purchase a MoTEC Lambo PNP kit? It should send all the torque information, to the TCM and should work as factory

Dan, this build is awesome. I've had to chase some similar issues (CAN translation, tight fitment, etc.) in my own project. It's certainly frustrating, but oh so satisfying when you get it working. I'm doing the wrong engine in a Vantage, I really like the stance on yours in the videos. Looks like a V12 car?

Good Progress Dan. Tow hook looks great and learning more about the trans linkage will make it all sweeter when it all comes together. Nothing good is easy....ever. Til next time my friend !!!

REPerformance UK this week mentions how difficult it is to swap the electronic module in the DL800 and then get it to update the software. Watch workshop update no.72 around the 11min mark.

There is only one comparable channel on YT - Bad Obsession Motorsport. It’s a pity this one is a little bit niche. While others are rebuilding cars - here we can see the process of creating a car. Awesome!

I salute Dan's demeanor, against all odds, progress of sorts. Yet I suspect inside there is real frustration that only a real man can cope with. I have never seen a project at this depth before. Sure seen plenty of builts, but with ready made parts needing only bolting on... this is on another level. I am 3 years into a build myself, and just got a three week set back, faulty electronic part supplied. Was meant to be done and dusted this weekend, now delivery is 5th August !! So I have some idea of your frustrations ... I just hope with fingers crossed, like a light bulb it just switches on and works for you. Then I really want to see it thrashed and delivering the performance it looks like delivering .....Great Video ...thanks

Definitely do a thick coating in the wheel wells it will save the fiberglass a lot

This is the best build on KZfaq spirit this rivals Freddy's P1 build. The only reason this channel doesn't have more followers is because Dan still has a regular job, as an engineer if I remember correctly, and doesn't have time to be a full-time KZfaqr. And as much as I love watching people modified JDM cars that I used to race on Gran Turismo when I was a kid, this is something truly unique. And even though the build hasn't progressed as quickly as some people might have liked, I'm willing to wait longer because Dan's content is so thorough and awesome.

YESSSSSSS! A new Ultima from Dan! 😀😀

Good Afternoon Dan doesn’t matter they look KOOL sure hope you don’t have any Law Enforcement Officers watching you just told them your Secrete 😂😂😂😂😂

Dan, I'm sure you will figure the transmission issue, so far every challenge you have overcome. I will add one thing, the bolt you picked for your tow hook is a shoulder bolt, it will need support along the machine surface adjacent to the treaded portion, this may not become an issue due to the light weigh of the Ultima, but if pulling the at an angle, the threaded portion may fracture. Fantastic work.

I’ve had to deal with just a tiny amount of coding factory part numbers with Porsche, and they’re terribly finicky about what vehicle they came out of - what vintage was associated, etc. I can only imagine your desire to get this wrapped up but you seem close!

Have you thought about adding air jacks in addition to the axle lift. Very convenient when changing tires and such.

Keep your chin up Dan you will get it sorted I have every confidence in you Kind Regards from Liverpool England

This is cool! I love automotive electronics

faaaack! don't give up even if you're defeated dan! that ultima its a beatifull beast! you almost have that rocking! just a litel beat more!

If you are into customizing, modifying cars through… yes, yes, yes and absolutely… keep up the stellar work Dan! Looking forward to the car driving, but not looking forward to the series concluding.
