well my nanna left me a bit of money to spend on what makes me happy the most when she passed away, hence why im not spending the money on investments etc :nyaanyaa:

i was pretty set on an s15 but after reading bulk info on them i dont know if i want one lol so the next idea was to think about getting an r34 gtt, they look aggressive and get decent power out of them, or another idea i was thinking about was just putting all the money straight into the car i have now to make it faster :nyaanyaa:

i still have a bit of time to decide so your input would be great.

and yes i know, why should i be asking everyone for their opinion when im going to be the one driving the car and spending the money etc but just tell me what you think anyway :laugh:

alot of us on here are in either mid or hell even early 20's. there's a time and place for everything..and with the housing situation set to worsen if u listen to news and crap...i'd agree with dan. invest it. there's plenty of time later to play with cars :nyaanyaa:

I would look at house prices and consider my options, if its too soon for moving out and your pay can't meet repayments invest it and wait a few months/years

Don't put this sort of money into your car in 1 hit, its not a good way to use 'free' money

mm driving to reece had me thinking, the way it is now i cant make up my mind, im guessing i would probably end up saying ohh i wish i didnt go with this decicion blah blah blah, im not really going to be looking at a house, but as of now mayb just leave it in the bank till i can make a decent resonable decision, and when i think about it the car i have now is decent enough dont ya think lol

      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

      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.
