Hi All,

Just thought I'd put a few words together to say hello. My names Anthony and I've been a member of SAU Vic for the past couple of years. A recent work contract has seen my family and I move from Vic to Perth for approx 12 months.

I have now owned my R33 for about 5 years and being extremely passionate about owning it joined SAU to meet like minded people. I also have an L2S cams licence which enabled me to join the Vic champoinship last year and ended up taking out my class as well as coming 2nd in the overall champ table (check the thread in the vic section) :P .

Now in Perth and expecting my car to arrive in about 4 weeks time, I'm itching to get back on the track and was wondering what kind of track days you guys run and at what tracks (it will prob save my licence too :D ). Also once settled I'd love to join SAU WA (adding another state tag to my collection :) ) and come along to an event or two.

Anway catch up with you all soon,

-ant95gtr.

Hi Ant,

Welcome to WA :P SAUWA participates in MC (motorkhana), if your interested PM Sneeza. If your interested in track days then become a WA Sporting Car CLub member, they have regular track days up at Wanneroo. SAUWA also do regular cruises and social events, so make sure you join up.

Cheers

Paul

Thanks guys.

Cheers for the heads up on the upcoming track days but unfortunately I'm only expecting the beast to arrive next month. As for the drags, I'm not really into 1/4 mile action as circuit racing floats my boat, but might come along to see what times I would run for a bit of fun :(

Paul, I was actually given your name in Vic as a contact thru GTRgeoff. Now I'm a member of a CAMS recog. club and have my cams licence - so do I have to be a member of the WA sporting car club or can I just join their track days?

Topaz - as said above I will miss the track day on the 20th but are there any others planned and who do I contact to join in?

Ant, remind Geoff that he owes me a beer ;) You could still participate up at Wanneroo, but it would cost more if your not a WASCC member, depends how regularly your going to participate. Feel free to give me a call if you want any info (0422 972 195).

Cheers

Paul

Anytime you want to come collect mate.

See Ant, told that they were a good bunch, and all the things the other states say about them is not true.....

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
