breathless,

no worries - if we can get the numbers. i'll more than happily help everyone out

breathless = 2

NA power = 1

baldbeno = 1

another 1 or 2 more, and i'll shoot them an email - tell everyone, post it on r31skylineclub or whatever.

they are able to do RB30E for around the same price.

or if you want an SR20DE, maxima, or whatever - i could probably negotiate prices.

go to: www.partsco.com to check their coby, rage or pacemaker prices and details.

attached are some photos i've managed to get of my set that arrived just the week past. (dont mind the date stamp :D)

Eug

just letting you know I've got mine now. I think I'm the last to get them from this first Group Buy.

thanks again!

haha yes you are, sorry reggie. christmas delivery and all.

hope you are happy.

with georgia, that makes 5.

as long as everyone is 100% sure they want one, we can go ahead with this.

i'll shoot charlie an email to see if she will do another group buy. will hopefully have an answer by later this week

I'm interested as well eug =)

how can I get hpc? do I manually get it done after I receive the extractors or does partsco have extractors that have hpc?

cheers mate

pipes are on, high flow cat on, feelin' fine

just have a hissing noise, not sure what it is.

Kind of get that noise too.. Only when I push it a bit though.. Sounds nice lol Doesn't sound like a leak or anything, maybe just the sound of the exhaust gas passing through the extractors..

HolyEvil has had an unfortunate accident and will not be able to participate in the group buy.

We are back down to 3 orders.

Please see here for details: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...t&p=2838293

sorry to hear buddy - hope you get your car fixed. it is totally understandable that you have other priorities.

that brings the group buy back down to 3 people.

i'm sorry guys, but i never intended to run a 2nd buy. however about 10 people have requested that i run another one.

bottom line is, they wont work without your support. alot of talk and no action.

i am happy to help other members out, but don't waste my time - i do not make money out of these, infact i lose money due to transfer fees and international phone calls.

those on the list - i appreciate your support. it is the others that have let you down. i will let this play out till feb 2nd, and i will see if they will allow you guys as an "extended" buy off the first one or something.

regards

alright, i've got my gear on.

for the record:

- 2.5" outlet coby extractors

- 2.5" cat converter

- standard r33 gtr catback exhaust (2.5")

first impressions, much fatter mid range, no change in overall power, driveability is much better, each gear revs right out much more.

the overall power thing intrigued me a fair bit. i requested to keep my old system. came home and measured it all up.. what do you know. the cat converter was a 2.5" item (from compliance). the strange thing was that the standard cat-back system measured 2.25" right after the cat and becomes a 2.5" right before the muffler

this is the stock r33 gts25 system. i think i could get away with just replacing the extractors and the cat on its own.

however i am yet to give it a full bootfull just yet. with a largish system, the power will be made mainly in the high rpm range.

idle sound is a very very quiet hum, and makes noise up to 4k rpm, after that it just screams like an na motor.

but, you do need to drive it a bit for the carbon deposits to settle and fill in any gaps - only time will tell.

i am booked in for a dyno day in 2-3 weeks, i will post up the results after.

cheers

    • 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"
