Thanks _8OO5TED_ ;)

Which wheels did you see on my car? I had 4 sets of wheels... sold the Work Meister's, just sold the impul NS-GT's today... You probably saw my car with the white nismo LMGT4's.. they are my track wheels.

I've still got the gold GT-Cs :whistling:

Matt,

Have you ever thought about how much that wing is going to be bending your boot?

I've had thoughts about the way it would twist the boot backwards as there's nothing underneath the boot to support the wing.

I've seen a few race oriented road cars that had secondary aluminum supports going inside the boot down to the latch mechanism.....

Something to think about....

No probs with that so far Pete.. I know what you mean though, I've seen 200sx's with GT wings have the boot flex inward at the middle leaving a nice big dent :whistling:

When mine was installed they didnt put an aluminium backing plate on the underside of the boot lid to reinforce the mount points, but it hasn't bent on me yet.

Either im not going fast enough or the boot lid is stronger than a 200sx ;)

Some nice R34's going around. There are 2 more that i keep seeing outside century city, a yellow and a silver one - wonder if they are from SAU.

Didnt anjoO's car have different rims? (or am i mistaken)

And those 2 other black r34s with the kits - freaking sexy lookin machines!

Here's my new car :D

You didnt by any chance drive around MT Waverley last week did you? Saw a white R34, back looked very similar, going around leeds or headingly road. I was walkin my beagle :D

The Silver one at Century City is probably mine.

I was there on Saturday arvo with my son.

See attached.

Hmm, the wing on the silver one was rather massive, it was the supra style wing that we see on some R34s (saw that car at night though). I will keep an eye out for yours though.

Possibly coulda been me since i do drive around that area, but can't say that street sounds familiar ;)

That car was on sale a while ago. Did you just buy it over? or are you still selling it?

It was for sale on the forums from fr33style and i bought it about 3 weeks ago ;)

Edited by blah_blah
It was probably Ming ("SWC945")... silver with full C-west kit.. formerly "HOTR34" with a full bomex kit.

hey matt

i still have the plates - want them? C'mon.... u know u want them!!!!

unfortunately my car is very easy to distinguish at the moment - its riding at about 3cm higher than standard. looks like a stupid 4wd :wave:

    • 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"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
