So, I'm heading back to my hometown next weekend since summer classes are finally out, and I'm going to finish gutting my s12 for a KA swap. My question is, where does the voice come from, is it the ECU or what? I have to admit I've grown partial to it, and would like to know if there's any way to keep it.

REVIVED!
i have a renewed interest in this thing.
question: was it a dealer option or did it come standard on every car?

thx. guess i have to go hunting for that gray box tomorrow!
optional on some cars. its basicaly wired into the door switches ebrake and fuel level sender so... it might be a bitch to install if u dont have it
well my door switches and ebrake already don't work, so..
I am wondering if my notch didnt come with it than...although my notch has power windows and has the button for the box on the center console. Does anyone know if they got the lady in like russia or ukraine and if she has a russian accent? That would be bad ass to have. "In soviet russia, door shuts you!"
i'm pretty sure she'd speak british english or russian.

voice was only mkI iirc
thanks! that's really helpful info, in case i decide to start hunting one down.
voice is only mk1...
hmm.. guess I have an MK1 notch then..
It sounds like normal english to me..
She even makes me blush...
LIke when I was in an auto cross, got all excited n carried away, and come to a stop in the stop box and then suddenly I hear, "Parking brake is on... Parking brake is..."
Ugh... it was like a moan of disgust at my poor techniques and experience.
I too plan to gut out most of my electrical, and would love to keep that sweet little voice for some wierd reason. Just grown attached to her I guess...
well if you ever feel like breaking up with her, let me know
we'll see ow things go. If I cant re-incorporate her into my plans, then you can have her for shipping.
It wont be for along time yet before I knwo though, so keep looking.
If I had my way, Id LOVE to get my hands on the japanese version.. although not 100% sure if its still a female voice.. lol

TurboNotchBut those style doors still open in the same way as normal doors, just backwards. The Lambo style doors arnt realy a bad idea, the hard part is getting them to work right. Most of the ones I've seen are crap due to poor instalation. If the hinges are braced right and adjusted right they tend to work well. But I think they would look like shit on full frame doors like ours.
those doors =great for drivebyshooting X-)
^^^ I think you got something there.
ya unless they shoot back then you'd be screwed and would be different on a s12 rather have suicide doors if any door mod
or jus a japanese guy talking to u in japanese wouldnt be bad im sure there's a japanese one
..... Your car would get partialy soaked or covered in snow if you tried to get in to the car in a storm. P;us if someone was coming after you it would not be a very quick acting shield. Plus we all like to aim for the people biking past in trafic
ancient post ftl. Notice all the example cars are the type of cars without full frame doors, as was mentioned. It really only works if you have a door that has no window track above the door edge.
if i have time i will look through my shop and car manual to see what i can find
I'm always rude to her. she never tells me "nice drift " or "I like your new shirt". She's always telling me what i do wrong or shes just Cpt. Obvious... Shes a dirty little slut.
^ laugh
hey watch it - shes probably someones grandma by now
I wouldn't doubt that shes a lot of peoples grandma...
i took mine out, cuz the wiring is screwed, and only worked half the time.. i have no need for the box, ill let it go cheap..
Jus sayin lol
I thought it was cool, till it got a little annoying.. "key is in the ignition".. but never worked for the fuel..(i thought she was supposed to say "fuel is low".. atleast thats what i read somewhere online.
the vinyl record seems to be one gen before the 84 model, but check it out

she has excellent nonregional diction
I wish my car came with a talking lady. Sad
only thing mine tells me is if i forget to turn my lights off.
saves you from dead batteries so i bet that helpful
not really.. cause i park in a garage so i can tell if i leave my lights on. And when i got her to work the first thing she told me was my door was open, and that was only 1 time.
i notice the alarm light on the dash doesnt do anything anymore...i tried to set off the alarm and it doesnt work...where is the fuse location on the factory alarm??..thx,mike
Dumb question, but is the switch that is in the fuse box turned on? I know on mine if that switch is turned off the alarm light doesn't blink
i dont think the 88 cars have that switch....it was on my old 87.
