Hi all,

On Sunday I managed to mount my HKS EVCIII in the "coin" pocket of my R34 GTT. The pocket I am refering to is the one on the right hand side on the lower section of the dash on the drivers side.

It did take a lot of cutting of plastic, but the pocket is still totally usable and closes and opens in the same fashion as before. My aim here was to add the EVC steathly to prevent prying eyes. Both my DINs are full so this is the only other place I could fit it without making big holes in the dash etc.

At the same time I mounted a dual cigar lighter under the dash (mounts just clear of the steering rack etc). This is for GPS, phone etc cables so I dont have cables running all over the car.

You can see it in the top left on the first picture.

All I used was a dremel tool, cable ties, some foam for spacing (it needs to mount on a slight angle in the pocket), and the general screw drivers etc to take the panel out (one screw on the left of the steering column, and 2 on the bonnet release). The rest is self explanitory when you take out the panel.

Let me know your thoughts people. :thumbsup:

Not a Skyline but still in the family. S14 with Greddy Profec B in the ashtray. Very stealth. Controlling the boost in the RB20DET so part Skyline. And the pics make it look dirtier than it really is.

That looks great, very stealthy. And much healthier than smoking as well!!

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
