While I remember, just a word of warning...

For those thinking of driving down from Sydney, I wouldn't recommend taking the Skyline...

For the last few years, the local constabulary from Goulburn and their buddies from both the EPA and RTA have taken pleasure in setting up a 4 day blitz/defect station at the Marulan heavy vehicle checking station on the Hume Hwy.

Basically they pull over anything that looks remotely modified and go over it with a fine tooth comb with the bastards dishing out the defects like all their Christmas's have come at once.

My brother copped $800 worth of relatively minor/stupid defects on his car on the Friday morning and the place was chock full of cars when I passed it early on the Sat morn (fortunately I didn't take the line!).

No doubt they'll be there again this year, so be careful...

ahh damn.... hopefully i find another car to take down otherwise it will make it 2/2 summernats that i get fined for something.

yeah good idea reddrifter. we should get something organised.

any of you guys that arent staying with family or anything booked accomodation yet?

OMG!!!!! :O

Thanks for the warning :thanks:

That would start your weekend off so badly getting a defect :D

Well lucky as werent planning to take the skyline going to take the normal car and will have 4 of us in it as well..

Definatly want to meet up with most of you guys at a pub or have dinner somewere together :happy:

If anyone knows a good pub or resturant??? Or I might go hunting myself let me know and I will organise something for us so we can all meet up prob the saturday night would be best for us as we are getting down there Friday sometime :)

Saturday is the best day at the showground from 9am till about 1am that nite. Watch all the events etc throughout the day then at night time the main show is on in the arena and then the adult entertainment begins live on stage at midnight.

:D:thanks::happy:

    • 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.
