had a good ride on the Toy Run today....little bit wind/sun burnt on the face riding up but wore a mask on the way down which helped abit.

interesting that it turned out to be an illegal event under Rann's new bikie laws.......would've been hard to enforce those laws with over 30,000 bikes there and members of 3 clubs riding together up front.........and no shots fired at each other either, lol

Toy Run was great. Enjoyed giving the little kids a passing hi-five ... hope I didn't break any of their little fingers :) The odd shower on the way up was annoying, but not enough to get wet thru the leathers and all.

It was amusing to see the stall for the FREE Australia party. Mike Rann does look the spitting image of Hitler. :laugh: Illegal event or not (under Rann's stupid laws) the Toy Run has always been a success. Was good to see the 3 clubs at ease with each other ... which was good for me and Pete as we were in the middle of it all. ;)

Heard more talk on that issue after the Toy Run Pete. Caught up with a few MRA guys and Mr Rann is running scared with this new political party being formed. Some senior MRA reps and party members have discovered that their phones have been taped too. :down:

Also heard a funny little story about how Media Mike's first wife left him for a biker :laugh: ... motive?

Jen's step dad bought a heap of F.R.E.E gear yesterday. He looks red in the face even with the mask on.

Good to hear there weren't many incidents, hear of a few trail bikes not making it all the way and a Harley or two

There are always clowns in the crowd, which is why we chose to ride up ahead. There are always bikes coming to grief either thru breakdown, overheating or just dickheads in general.

My mate Jess was riding her VFR back down Glen Osmond after with me and Tracy riding with her. Some stupid idiot in a BMW changed lanes on us even tho he saw us clear as day! Hustling his way across intentionally waving 1.7 tons of metal. I was in a position to get out the way, but Jess was already forced off the road and into a slip lane she didn't want and almost up the gutter. We stopped at the lights and abused the dickhead. He was shit scared when he realised he had no where to go ... not so tough now ;) Hope he enjoys the "mods" to his car! :)

I'm thinking of taking my GTR wing off today, so I took the screws out to find its glued to the boot. Should I just leave it and get a crash repairer to do it so he can repaint my boot once he is done? Or just pull it off and see how it looks?

just make sure the grommets sit tight enough so water can't get in at all.

yeah the grommets work well..

if u lazy like me and dont get the holes fixed by a panel beater, they will need to be replaced about once every 9 months cos they perish

wow, i got a nice surprise in the mail today

2 years after a non-insured VL hit my in the rear of my old VT,

i got a cheque for a measily 450 bucks out of the 2g im owed. :(

i called RAA and pretty much said wtf, turns out he is only payin $50 bucks here and there.....

scum bag.

Wing is gone, polished the boot up nicely too. But cannot find any grommets. I went to sprints, super cheap and clarks rubber. No one had the size I need. How am I supposed to cover up these holes? The banana in Japan used some black tape on the old GTS-t holes, maybe I should do the same?

    • 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.
