Well, not really, but I want too.

Well, I hate ANYONE who doesn't secure their loads.

I just ran over some sort of screw jack and it went straight through my front right tyre and rim.

The jack had a base welded to it about 150mm square by 10mm, and let's just say that it's not now......

Results in the pictures.

:yes:

Anyone wanna swap cars, apparently mine doesn't like to be on the road.

BASS OUT

farkin hell :P

We almost had a council roadworks type sign fly into the windscreen once at 100k/hr on the Ring Rd.. just missed it and it went into a commodore behind us instead.

Have at least 2 buckled rims from the Ring rd also.

Where was this? Can you get the council to pay for damages?

Stupid thing was just sitting on the road covered in a piece of plastic.

80 kph, didn't see it until the last minute, it was dark, big 4WD in front of me and then BANG.

wasn't a council thing couldn't chase them anyway with no air in my tyres.....

That is just SO dis-heartening :P

Every time you get the car shmik, something else farks it for you. So sorry to hear Pete :P

AGREED!! U poor b#stard!!

I take it that it fell off a truck?!? Did u happen to get the company name and/or rego off the truck? Cos im pretty sure u may be able to get them to pay. A rock fell off a Boral truck a few years ago and busted up my mates windscreen, lucky he got the rego called Boral told them date, time, location & rego. They told him to send the bill to them, no questions or anything!!

But i think it was hassle free cos of the company that was at fault.

All the best man!!

sorry to see pete.

it's all part of the great Australian tradition of getting a trailer or ute 2 sizes too small, then proceeding to load it up to 200% capacity, drive along a freeway or highway, and therefore not need to visit the tip to drop off the waste - it's all on the freeway and you simply have to just drive home.

:P

    • 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.
