hay buddy how r ya

just a word of warning the journey u intend on embarking on is no small feat in fact its f**ken huge man.

ive driven around most of australia over the years. ive driven from brisbane to melbourne non stop and its a 22hr drive.

but the big trip from sydney to adelaide then to alice is huge ive gone melb - adelaide - alice and it took a few days and the coditions are harsh. u r stupid if u think ur doing it in a cabriolet, get alot a lot of maps and a gps as well and take heaps of water because it is straight desert and a big jerry can wouldnt go a stray either be really careful and make sure the car u are doing it in is capable ok

cheers

hey mates

i ve done the great ocean road from melbourne to adelaide. we didnt start from sydney, we went by plane to to melbourne. but the great ocean road from melbourne to adelaide was short. i thought its more. it was a nice coastal road. i didnt know that here are so many flies during the day. thats horrible. i had to learn a new move 'the aussie wave'

i am now in adelaide, i booked a bushcamper for 10 days. i gonna drive to uluru and carry on then to brisbane.. that are 4000ks. i know its stupid but we can do that. i am traveling with a friend here. we need a emergency radio, loads of water and diesel.

you were right. here are 1000 skylines. but i couldnt take a photo of 1 yet because i never have my camera with me. is a gt-r so rare? i never see one. i think if you have a godzilla you dont mind to remove the emblem.

of course i know sebastian leob. he is a hero. is the wrc finished, did he win? i gonna take a look.

you gonna find a post when i am in brisbane and later in melbourne. where is the chappel st in melbourne? i checked my tourist road map (haha) but i could find it. is it near the flinders station and fed square?

see you later

hey mates

i am now in brisbane. i stay on a campsite in redcliffe. i gonna give back my campervan the day after tomorrow and move to a backpackers in brisbane central for 2 days and then to the surfers paradies for another 2 weeks. Somebody wrote me we could meet up. my aussie phone nr is 0406550174 (vdf)

the way from adelaide to brisbane via alice was very long and hot. but we enjoyed it.

i am looking forward to see someone of you. here or in melbourne.

Hey sounds like a great trip!! Did you get to drive a skyline yet? I don't think GTR's are really that rare, on holiday in various places they always seem to pop up, and even here in Alice there's a few.

Good move getting the camper..that's the way to do it.

Enjoy the rest of your trip and keep us updated!

Hey, there is some trackwork going on at Queensland raceway tomorrow.

Either make your way out or send me a pm if you are getting rid of the camper early and I'll tell you how to get the train from Brisbane to my place and we'll head out together.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Duncan · Posted

      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

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      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

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      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.
