Ok, why is the old site address linking straight to SAU??? I thought the idea was to leave it read only for a while and then shut it down???

It looks like it has started already... You guys say one thing but do something else... Sounds way too familiar!!! I'm out of here!!!

Hey Nick. Don't take all of this so serious.... I in fact would love to see and go for a drive in your car sometime.

The fact it has an LS1 in it is always gonna cause a stir (especially on here)

Have you thought about what tread you want yet?

Good, only input I've seen since you've been here is whinging anyway. :wave:

Not taking things seriously, stupid Internet lol.

And I duno, I'm gona head down to willowbank this week for the test and tune and see how she hooks up on the stickier surface...

I know it sounds ridiculous because I'm not making huge power but I'm seriously playing powerskid games through first and second and the first hint of a launch.

I guess $100 235/45s will do that :P

Do you really want us to answer that?

What's going on Zac

Nothing much working, taking about cars

Oh yeah nick ls1 umm got a bit of a suggestion. Was talking to someone about cams and springs... Is yours double springed?

you are such a tard. Would you like a jump to conclusions board game as a parting gift?

the web host of the old forums is sh1thouse and i setup a redirect but it seem to redirect "all" http requests. I am working with them to resolve it.

It's still stock cam ATM, its getting a comp cam 232/234 112lsa, better pushrods and valve springs after the drag day. I'm not sure if there double sprung or just heavier spring rate

just thinking about cheap tyre options. Like Nankangs and Federal 255/40.

I have a full set of Advan A048 255/40s sitting in my garage as well but want to use for track days (if my car ever gets finished :( )

Better pushrods is an oxymoron.

For tyres I would see what sort of money you can get Federal EVOs for. Or just use the 595s and get them hot, Noel used them back in the day and they performed well after a large burnout! Also Theo Woolett ran a 9 on them in his GTR so they cant be all bad!

But in all seriousness 90/10 shocks is what you really need. When I first upgraded the turbo in my old 32 I had no traction at all, if I went to pass someone on the highway it would put on a smoke show! But i set up my subframe bushed for squat and got the shockies set up to keep the weight down over the rear and the problem was solved.

In fact I wager that even with bigger, better street tyres you wont get much of a result until the suspension is addressed

Same here. Fix brakes and suspension first though.

Are you positively annoyed friend? bro?

Lawl. Take your car against the abomination at drags :P I know that you said you couldn't be there, but I can drive her :P

This. Let's not forget that Ben is doing this for FREE in his OWN spare time. Spare time is time that tends not to be at work, or involved in other activities outside the club (read "shagging waitresses" for benno)

    • 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.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
