I just need to sell it and time to upgrade to a Series II skyline...

I got like nearly 600km on a tank when I drove down to Port Stephens last summer with the A/C on all the way...

So yeah, I think it still drinks less than a skyline..

i own a cressida i was getting avrage 450km a tank daylie driving every thing from trashing peak to hwy driving

there good cars and alot of mods can be had if you want go that way :)

i2obert: LOL, but you don't get the same respect as being in a skyline haha..

but I want a car with airbags, and ABS... I've had a fair amount of misses with my old VN SS, handled like a boat around Palm beach.. Live Axel sucks....

Furthermore, there's too much work to convert it to 2JZ, I've been researching, too much time and fabrication blah blah..

and the worse part, there's not an abundance of aftermarket parts for a 2JZ motor, RBs and SRs, parts are available everywhere.

Quinny: You've got PM

I really want a R33 S2, but I'm broke now.... But I would settle for a S1.5 or even buy a damaged S2 and fix it to save money.

As for Quinny, if he had accepted my offer before, I would have been a skyline owner.

Its got the Non-Turbo 7M-GE supra motor in it, should be easy to bolt on a 7M-GTE turbo and run stock boost, or even take out the motor and fully do a swap with a 2JZ or 1JZ out of a Aresto, or JZX81 Chaser.

Bump, just changed:

- 2x Shift solenoids

- Transmission Oil filter

- Transmission Oil

- Transmission Sump Gasket

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • 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.
