Go T20 - It looks awsome, especially on a black car!

And if your a mechanically able person you can remove your door trims and barter some money off. also barter money off for cash. But the big thing I would encorouge - Have you noticed you have two diagonal stripes up your window from your window guides like every other skyline I've ever seen? Then remove the guides an thuroughly clean them of all oilly, dirty residue and refit but also see if you can get the stained window glass polished to remove the streaks! Shouldn't cost much and you'll have the most individual skyline on the street if you accomplish this!

Just be careful with the darker than legal tints. Apart from being defectable, your insurance company can technically use this against you in the case of a claim. This is why I was careful when tinting my car. You can always call your insurance company to check if you do want to risk the darker tint, some may not care.

If you're not down with the group buy and you're in Western Sydney, I've got a guy in Blacktown who did a great job on my tints at a good price, just PM me and I'm happy to pass on his details.

    • Lets say I wanted to buy this, specifically for this purpose. How do I actually perform the function. Can I still buy a Consult-1? Am I about to be burned by the fact my car is a 2000 model Series 2 R34 and thus will be some stupid other system? Do I just need this -> https://obd2australia.com.au/product/nissan-consult-14-pin-to-usb-ddl-diagnostic-interface-with-ftdi-ft232r-chip/ And with what software?
    • That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc. 
    • Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?
    • Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...
    • The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
