Hey guys, the time has come to road reg my R32, so I need to find a stock airbox. It's roadworthy right now, but I'd rather not take any chances with the rego as I'm only in town till friday to do the rego and getting a second appointment could take forever.

I just need an R32 GTSt airbox (apparently the GTS one dosen't line up properly but I could be wrong) for the rego check and I'll have it back to you as soon as I'm done.

If anyone has one lying around I can come and pick it up anytime before Wednesday.

Cheers,

Shan

wow... thanks guys... i can feel the love :pirate:

Gonna borrow Kaz's sometime before Wed arvo as she's not far from my place (just worked out that its 3 left turns and a right turn).

I'll see you all on Sunday morning for brekky tho. Hopefully with my newly registered car.

Altho I just found out the engineer's cert I had expired not long ago and the engineer who issued it is in New Zealand atm :O lets hope they accept the older one.

hehehe. good luck with that :O

they wouldnt register my car because he left RB off the engine prefix...Had to get a re write on the RWC, new appointment etc....

the car's already had an inspection, and it passed everything, cept I couldn't pay the rego as I had just paid the rego on the cef and was $50 short. How embarassment.

Then I went to syd for interviews n stuff, so left the R32 here. Now I'm back to get my car, I rang VicRoads and the guy asked me if I had already rego'd it under my name, coz the VIN and my details were already on it.

So lets hope they're a lil more leniant as it's already been inspected with that engineer's cert. I've got a current roady, so it shouldn't be that much of an issue, unless they're real diligent.

Otherwise I might have to extend my stay in VIC for a lil while until the engineer's cert's gets redone.

Im local ;) - come get whatever you need from my R32 when you're up here

Airbox etc.....

I would... cept I'm keepin my cars all with VIC reg :D sif get a roadworthy cert every year and deal with multicoloured slips for different things.... most. confusing. registry. process. ever.

Hey Kaz, do you mind if I come pick it up tomorrow morning? I'll give you a call beforehand.

Redid the booking for monday, gonna get the engineer to redo the cert on friday, and should be 100% fine then.

Which means I'll be comin to the breakfast meet in a Hyundai :D

I have nothing to offer you of any help, i didn't even read the thread, I just thought i'd take the opportunity to tell you you suck, and you look quite at home in a hyundai.

Eat me!! :(:dry:

sorry only just saw this, had no net today.. networking issues!

Anyway should be ok, going to city nissan again at some point though, about what time?

I was going to try and see if I could drop it over to you last night but I blew a hose in the city in peak hour, had to get a tow home from jack. :)

Eva fell asleep in jacks truck LOL. Smooth ride I guess :D

you suck, and you look quite at home in a hyundai.

Eat me!! :(:)

Just for that I'm gonna come knocking on your door with a bottle of scotch and something for you to jam under my cluster.

Anywho, turns out the roadworthy guys, VICroads and the engineer didn't need the airbox fitted, so I went ahead and got it all sorted out.

Thanks for the offers in any case guys.

COOL I'm sleeping in then :) (hopefully!)

Oh probably a bit late now, but don't ever go to Carlton Vicroads.. that old grey guy in the 'drivethrough' is an utter (& bitter) prick. Greensborough Vicroads are fairly reasonable/nice though.

Burwood Vicroads is where I got it done... they're pretty easy going, although he did give me some hassle about the VIN number being stamped on the strut tower instead of the firewall.

Other than that, all done and ready to go.

    • 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.
