Hi everyone!!

My name is Kenn, I bought a white R34 GTT about 6 months ago. I've been here for quite awhile, and spent way too much time stalking the classifieds for parts, but never got around to saying HI! ;) I'm in St Lucia, studying at UQ. And oh, I'm quite keen join a cruise, if there's any going on? Maybe I should pop by the Baskin Robbins meetup one day if its okay?

Seriously... lrn2english. You'll find the search function works a whole lot better if you can spell. Otherwise you'll just find topics and replies from other people who don't know "brought" from "bought"...

Oh yes Isola, you might just very well be my tutor for Professional Writing Communication course. *gasp!*

Hey there all.

Bought an R33 96 Skyline Series II M-Spec II in February and absolutely love the thing. Use to own a commodore, but a fairly uniquely looking one so it wasn't all too bad. Once I drove the R33, couldn't get enough of it, I love driving now.

Usually driving round the logan/beenleigh area.

Do you drive it in to uni? There are a couple of members that are studying there. If you see a 4dr 33 driving around give a wave.

Feel free to drop in to basins on Thursday, just be sure to come up to the tables and say hi.

Rarely, honestly, because I live within walking distance of school(or the fact that I never turn up for classes). haha, will do. Just checking: is the Baskin Robins the one at Milton Central(beside the supermarket)?

Check the events section there's a weekly meet up that way, I think it's on a thursday night?

Hey all,

I'm new to the forum, seems to be heaps of info on here which is fantastic to see.

I'm based in Geebung but I could be seen pretty much anywhere on the northside of brisbane at any time.

Got a 98 Red Stagea S2.

Hope to see some of you around.

Hi Queenslanders! My name is Steve and I'm soon to be off my P-Plates very early Jan. I've got a Skyline R32 GTS-4 and the passenger seat feels great so far! lol.

Just trying to get the damn thing working properly in time but once it's good to go i'll be keen as for SAU cruises and the likes. I love the whole Jap time attack scene and the skylines "Jap muscle car" rep... The sound is just the icing on the cake.

I've been on the forums for years, but never introduced myself properly, mainly because I didn't have a skyline.

That changed about a month back. Picked up a nice R32gts-t, and i'm absolutly loving it. I mean, coming from a holden drover, the handling... the torque (yes... i think a 2L motor has amazing torque alright. The effect will wear off on me eventually), the power. The lack of turning circle (i know its not bad, but again, compared to a holden drover).

The car has an upgraded exhaust, changed suspension (lowered), and as far as i know is running standard boost etc. It'll stay like that for a while, as i can't really find the money to do any crazy engine upgrades.

That's the car, how about me?

I'm Peter, and i study Mechanical engineering at UQ (starting 4th year this year!), but I live on the southside near Mt Gravatt. I can't see myself driving the 'line to uni much, since the bustrip from garden city takes 15 minutes, But hopefully i'll see people around here instead. Will have to get myself along to some cruises or meetups or someting somtime.

Welcome dude. Theres a couple of us southsiders around and we do dinner sometimes on Thursday nights. =)

Hey everyone.

I used to live on the Gold Coast (now live in Canberra) But I'm up here for holidays. I have a silver 4 door R33 GTS4 and I'm really keen for a cruise or even just to meet up. I've seen Baskin and Robbins mentioned a few times, which one is it? Just so I know where to come and say G'day

    • 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
    • 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.
