Weren't the first price figures a long time ago around the $300-400 mark, $200 isnt too bad,if you sit down and think how long this took to make. For the guys complaining just dont buy it, do you send emails to HKS telling them that there parts are expensive? Geez some people are complete wingers

Andy have the hidden diagnostic menus been translated as well?

Can you remind me how to get to the diagnostic screen. I remember seeing it when it was posted but I can recall the process to get to it to check.

Cheers

Andy

maybe we should have a list of those who bitch, dont get the conversion?

indeed! it was me that put it across the prestige m'sports mailing list. I have a bit to do with them and these cars

that said I hit up 8 RAWS here in brissy and they are all on board with the idea. did get one try to haggle me to nix and I politely said no way.

to those that think there's money in this - forget it - there's not!! in my case I'd make more on a diversity antenna lead :)

Hi Andy

Iam def still keen for the software please send me an msg when you have worked out the details

I'll do yours. I'm the QLD person anyway and I'm doing swap in swap out boxes as well. so if you are capable of pulling the DVD rom out and posting it to me I'll send you one back that has been swapped.

From what my rather vague understanding of the Japanese kanji translation FM would be a service (only available in Japan) that allows news-flash or information be displayed on screen, e.g. traffic information, road works, accidents, or perhaps even any general news/advertising.

Even if that screen is translated, it would be of little to no use for us (most likely to no use).

that is correct. its a traffic information service. no use here.

Anyone doing these conversions in NSW yet?

That is me John.

I will keep you all posted over the next couple of weeks. The release date will be shortly after the 6th December.

I will probably try to organize a central place on a weekend to help people with logistics.

So at this stage the confirmed installers are:

NSW: Andy (Andy65b)

QLD: Audio Express (Chris Rogers)

VIC: Rianto (RS73)

SA: TBA

WA: TBA

Won't be long now till this all kicks off.

Cheers

Andy

Andy have the hidden diagnostic menus been translated as well?

Leon, I checked this the diagnostic menu and it is now in English.

Thanks for reminding me about this as there was one selection that was no changed and I will get this fixed before the release.

Cheers

Andy

Great effort Andy and I think everyone with the exception of a couple would think this way!

Oh....Oh!!!! But I tell you what!!!!.....it took too long, it's too much and I don't like the way the menu's are laid out!!!! Can you go back and start again.....it should be for free and custom made to my spec's.

Like I said....great effort mate!

Ooppps I've done it again!!!!....sorry!!!

Yep,

Top row - 5th button and bottom row 1st button - hold them together for 5 seconds at any time.

And good on you for working so hard on this.

Hi Guys,

Firstly, HUGE thanks to Andy for sticking at this when I am sure I would have given up ages ago. I cant wait to get the conversion.

Secondly, with the above Diagnostics has anyone ever had this translated or does anyone know what diagnostics these are?

Cheers

I'd just be guessing what alot of it means, but have a look and some of it is interesting. I am curious though to find out if my hunches are right. I figure one of the trim controls is for gyro sensitivity, but the other one, i'm not sure - something to do with the volume/road speed maybe? I have an inkling the greyed out menu is for an undeveloped language menu too.

Sorry to dissapoint but FAIL... LOL

Well maybe an undeveloped language.........it is the newest Language around........ It is a PHONE option.

I have seen it on one other car.

I will try to give you an idea about it later when I have time to sit down a read all the menu's.

Sorry...... this is a really busy week for me. (actually most are)

Cheers

Andy

andy,

For WA/SAI'm doing a swap in swap out arrangement. spoke to a few people today that are NOT on here and they are happy to yank the box and send it to me.

About that. Can we still drive our cars around with out the com?

Or are you sending a replacement one and we send you ours when we get it?

I found some interesting things in this Diagnostics menu tonight.

There are adjustments for Speed correction and GPS gyro, Left and right.

I am yet to see what effect they have but it looks promising.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • 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
