The Godzilla name came from Wheels magazine in 88 - 89 when the R32 was just out. It was on the front cover, and has stuck with Aussies ever since :bunny:

From memory it had a wine red GTR on the cover - sexy :)

A salesman at blackburn nissan told me a few days ago that they dont know if the new GT-R will make it to Australia. He said that they only sell a coupe of Z's a month and so they a worried that there isnt much of a market for a 120,000 + nissan. He said weighing up the cost of importing all the service parts and training ect against how many GT-Rs they may actually sell, may decrease the chances of the car ever making it to our shores through Nissan australia.

LoL i know Oscar ... it was a bit of tongue in cheek sarcasm.

But I was wondering if the article meant the worldwide fans and maybe some factions of Nissan had adopted the title in the project or it was the article writer beefing up an old media cliché'

:O

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
