Thanks. :blush: To be honest looking at the pics im thinking... hell i don't need to sell this i think i'll just keep it. Problem is my garage isn't big enough for this and a big armchair that I can sit in drinking wine and just looking at it.

I have to drive it to appreciate it and I can't seem to find the time these days :w00t:

That engine set up is very similar to the set up of the RB26 going into my GTST, including the turbo choice. I was originally going for GTRS twins but for more response i went for the GTSS HKS turbos, what are they like on the street and would you have a dyno graph available as i am interested in seeing the power curve of these turbos, sorry a bit of topic. Love the car, the things i would give to own one of those

Yeah the turbos are extremely responsive on the street. I won't post much else in this thread to follow the forum rules but check the forced induction forum Rb26 Turbo Upgrade thread.

For a street GTR with a bit more poke than stock I can't imagine better turbos really.

Hi,

You said you've had car since 2004 but it doesn't say what year of make? Is ita 6 speed?

... Jen

Ah thanks. I copied and pasted from another website where it's listed and forgot that was listed seperately.

It is a 6 Speed Getrag manual.

I'll update the first post. Thanks.

Not many black GTRs around .. Concidering a stocker is 55-60g and this one is only 70g its abit of a steal concidering the work done to it ..

Didnt happen to drive up parra rd on the weekend because I happened to see a drop dead hot GTR 34 similar to yours .. I think he waved but my mouth was so far opened my brain was leaking out and it didnt register..

Nah mate. That wasn't me :action-smiley-069: I don't drive it when it's raining at all. Haha don't like driving it in the rain because then I have to wash it and every time i wash it it turns into a 2 day wash, wax, detail ordeal which is quite a lot of work.

Thanks for the kind words though. There's only a handful of black ones that I know about in NSW so I probably know of the car you're talking about though.

O M G!!!!

Why are you selling? why don't you just drive the car more often??? :(

Gorgeous cars lads and lassies!! wish i had the monies to buy it :D

Thanks :action-smiley-069:

Anyway - I just don't seem to be able to find the time to drive it anywhere. I'd love to drive it daily but since work is only 3km from home the motor wouldn't even warm up before I was at work.

    • 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"
