r32 ls1 conversion, looks rather tidy.

btw Dale bill from ATS claims his high flows get upto 270rwkw on pump fuel and they do get over 300 on E85 Adrian of the last dyno day was running the same one i have with nismo 700cc injectors and cracked 300

Read this story:

http://www.news.com.au/adelaidenow/story/0...5006301,00.html

And read what a comment was for this story:

I wonder how many high speed incidents there are in the immediate days and weeks after the Clipsal 500 has been in Adelaide. This must cost the state dearly in business disruption within Adelaide, does it also have a cost in lives?

What kind of bullshit is that? Blaming Clipsal 500 for a bunch of robbers trying to out-run the police?!

old people can use the internet now, so its not just angry letters in the feedback section of the advertiser :(

What a poor, poor statement, that really has no relation to the story? They ran from the cops, and smashed, i dont think they had the Ckipsal 500 in their mind at the time. Another comment was, i hate to say it, spot on, but "they fulfilled their own destiny".

yay!

This is a tragic waste of life, but we need to ask why do young kids do this? When I was young I did stupid things in cars, got caught, paid the fine and became a better driver. Now, getting caught is too tough so higher risks are taken to NOT get caught, stupid things done later at night, done in more remote areas that are more dangerous etc. Remember Kids will be Kids, they will experiment. I say lets not stop kids experimenting, let provide them a safer way to experiment, provide a controlled manner in which they can experiment. Driving at 50 everyday only creates dumb useless drivers, learning how to control a car provides safer drivers, make it mandatory for kids to do some evasive driving classes, teach them how to drive faster, give them a place to do a burnout. I am sick of all this crap about lowering speed limits, increasing the fines. This just increases the risks some kids will take. Everyday we drive a car its a risk, we need to lower the risk, we need to save lives and we need to do it in a radical way. People comment about kids not understanding what they are doing and that they must "wake up" - don't you remember when you were a kid, when did you wake up? When were enlightened that you were not invincible? When did you realise that you are so important to your family - probably not until you got your own kids? I am saying lets provide better training and reduce the severity of the punishment, lets reduce the risk these kids have to take to experiment, the higher the risk the higher the loss and that is what we are seeing.

Im surprised the report doesnt go

'the skyline powered commodore'

the comment i read sort of blamed lowered speed limits and no race track

edit couldn't agree more with that quoted post there damo pity the right people that count dont read it and get things done

    • 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.
    • 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.
