Hey

I see man, ah well its all worth the wait.

If you are looking at importing a car, I can hook you up. I got this one through my cousin who imports through contacts in Japan.

When your ready ($) and if your keen just send me a PM and I will pass on your details. :)

Good time to buy now since the YEN is low, AUSD is up, we get a good conversion rate :)

Good luck!

Thanks,

Abu

Great looking car!

Looks very neat and tidy, and silver is the best colour, white is a close 2nd :) Makes me want to pull my finger out and get my front bar sprayed :)

Hey Roy

How you been?

Thanks for your comments, silver is definitely the way to go! I was a bit 50/50 on the colour after I bought it, but once it arrived all my doubt went away :D

Silver looks flawless even when dirty.

We should cruise one day :thumbsup:

Thanks,

ABu

yeh silver ftw..

takes alot to make it look dirty

looks almost identical to mine, u just got N1 slots in front bar and different wheels..

keep the exhaust.. ive wanted a twin cannon for ages, is it loud?

also, best to raise it a touch more, mine sat at about your height previously and you will find the exhaust, cannon's, rear of the sideskirts, front bar will all be getting pretty scratched

Hey man

Twin canons rock, and yes they are fkn loud. Sounds like a straight through 3" with no cat, thats how loud it is.

Canons/rear bar/side skirts haven't scraped on anything yet, just the front bar has it has the lower lip which catches on to a fair bit, but will be raising it up 1cm all around this weekend.

Silver is by far the best color, I'm pretty happy that I chose it!

Thanks,

Abu

Love the clean & tidy look

man, cars like yours keep reminding me to get my spoiler shaved off :thumbsup:

No wing looks the best, sleek and tough. :P

Looks very clean. Saw your thread on NS, but good to see some newer pics on here.

Im after a 32 as soon as i get my accident payout. How much did you pay if you dont mind me asking? PM me if you like.

Will.

Hey

Yeah, got banned on NS.com till 2030.. don't know why? lol

Well if your looking at importing my cousin imports. He is the one who imported my car, so just send me a PM if your keen, and we can discuss some prices. :angry:

Thanks for all the comments.

Thanks,

Abu

    • Who did you have do the installation? I actually know someone who is VERY familiar with the AVS gear. The main point of contact though would be your installer.   Where are you based in NZ?
    • Look, realistically, those are some fairly chunky connectors and wires so it is a reasonably fair bet that that loom was involved in the redirection of the fuel pump and/or ECU/ignition power for the immobiliser. It's also fair to be that the new immobiliser is essentially the same thing as the old one, and so it probably needs the same stuff done to make it do what it has to do. Given that you are talking about a car that no-one else here is familiar with (I mean your exact car) and an alarm that I've never heard of before and so probably not many others are familiar with, and that some wire monkey has been messing with it out of our sight, it seems reasonable that the wire monkey should be fixing this.
    • Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.
    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
