updates?

If you get pulled, do you legally have to consent to a search of your vehicle, including the boot, glove-box, general interior or under the bonnet? If police can't look in the glove-box or boot because it is "locked" with a key, I will make millions selling bonnet locks!

Starter motor still availble?

Looking for 19 inch LMGT4s in 10.5. Want aggressive offset (+15). Would prefer swap with my bronze 19x10.5 +12 TE37s. Cheers. Nick

Nice one! Saw the grey GTR (HKS stickered) in the city this morning, looking awesome! I noticed that SCWR doing peats ridge track days. I'm sure there'll be a stack of interest. When are you going to start doing training up there?

Just got an immobiliser and alarm installed by Leon at Security in Motion (SIM). SIM is listed in the Alarm sticky in the Car Audio and Security forum. Leon was kind enough to come out to my place and install an Autowatch premium immobiliser and alarm, an FM band expander and fix my cigarette lighter pretty late on a Saturday (not a normal time for most people, and I don't suggest you book with him at such a time). The last two requests were sprung on him on the day of the install, and weren't a problem. The alarm and immobiliser work great and were installed in a reasonable amount of time. I would recommend SIM to anyone looking to get an Australian Standard immobiliser installed in their car as most insurers require this, and Leon is all over it. You can PM Leon at SIM on danielr34 or call on 0430 534 248 Website: http://www.securityinmotion.com.au/ By the way, I was not paid for this endorsement and am not affiliated with SIM, promise! Just a happy customer.

Getting immobiliser and alarm fitted now by SIM. No one replied to me privately, so please don't take the lack of public responses as a mark against "Carbon Car Systems".

Hi all, I have seen the recommended installers, including SIM and FHRX, but just wanted to know if anyone has used Platinum Auto Securities (trading as Carbon Car Systems). Their prices look reasonable, just wanted to hear anyone's experience. If you have negate feedback please pm it to me. Positive, feel free to post. Thanks, Nick

Well done on the build and feature. It's a shame it had to move on, but you just made someone very happy. Hope they're on the forum and we can keep track of her progress, and lap times.

Hi Phil, nice find. You're a stickler for research and detail! Please add me to the waitlist for the next group buy. Need an oil cooler bad. Any idea on the cost for me to get one going solo?

Got a pic of the innards? Do you know exactly what race pace did?

Just car, 1500-1600, Sydney, max excess

Thanks for the pics. The probelm I had with my battery was that the terminal came loose while I was driving, so I need to change the connector or the battery or both. I've got a harness too, so I want to use that with the new battery to secure it. There's only one screw on the inner side of the battery, and I don't know how the toher side is secured. I guess something is missing. Will have to take the whole back plate and strut out to have a squiz. Been calling around a few places and a few recommend odyssey because they are fairly small but still powerful enough.

Recently went to a track day and came to discover after stopping on the way back that the battery had become disconnected. Luckily there was someone there to help me out big time (Matt from F&E). The previous owner of the car put in a battery that is too high, and didn't reattach the harness properly. Can someone post up some pics of what their battery harness looks like in an R34. I assume it’s the same in a GT-T and GTR. Also, I have seen posts about which batteries to use, but can you note what battery you have in your car. Thanks for any help.

Hi Rick, were they still in good condition once you got them off? Pics of them removed? I am interested in them. I have sent you an email.

Hi Phil, Since the downing of PMs I lost your acc details. Can you email them to [email protected]?

1 x Sump 1 x Transmission 2 x Diff 1 x Filter Many thanks....

I had a run in with the police in NSW and got 4 different infringements for the one situation. The total fine was roughly $1500 and 3 demerit points. I had initially shown up to court and entered a not guilty plea and was issued with a date to appear. I had planned all along to plead not guilty and on the day I was due to appear before the judge, but I spoke to the lady (yes, received legal advice from "some lady") who checks you in to court, and I told her that yes I had committed the offences (and as a result was guilty) but that I didn't know they were offences at the time. She said I was better off pleading guilty and asking for leniency from the judge. I did not have a lawyer, and was only sporting a character reference from a family friend. I sat in court and the judge read out each case and asked the defendants what they were pleading, and all of them plead not guilty, and it came to me and I plead guilty so she hear my case immediately. She read the character reference, asked me if I would do it again, to which I promised I wouldn't and she decided not to enforce the financial penalties associated with the infringements. I was pretty happy with the result, because at the time that was a stack of money (about 3 times more than the offending vehicle). Now I know that this doesn't apply directly, or even closely, to your case, but it's just an example of when admitting your wrong doing was rewarded with leniency. Best of luck in your endeavours!

Fair enough...thanks for that. I'll get an immobiliser soon...

You'll probably get some of this:

Driving to and from work is about 3-3.5k, and when the urge takes me, 8k...but not too often!

Yes,Ii just wanted some peace of mind that the car won't get denied coverage in its current state (i.e. before I get the Immobiliser/Alarm installed)
