missV35...wow, "there's a ladeey in da house" sings me~~~~

SKiZO....twins? hahaha...unless you are Asian, I highly doubt it man...Yeah, I noticed ur V35 was dark blue and a sedan~~!!! Not many of these dark blue sedans in Melb...in fact, I have not seen another V35 on the road until the Meet yesterday....I've got quite a few bling blings on mine...just to make it 'special'....but then again, who am I kidding? The Mrs says "ur next car must be 4 doors, no turbo, and auto"....hence the purchase of V35 sedan..."cry cry cry"....

Unique things to highlight from our meet:

Only 1 car has original orange indicator (mine)

Only 1 car has rear windscreen wiper/rear camera (siu loong bao's)

Only 1 coupe has original 18" rim

Only 1 car has rear aero spoiler

Only 1 car has sunroof (V35Sky's)

Only 1 car has factory weather shield on the window (V35 300GT)

Only 1 pair of badgless bootlid (yeah, I'm running out of idea)

Added: Probably the best of them all... 1 40th Anniversary coupe with cream interior/full leather was "downgraded" to regular premium with half suede leather/black interior. Sorry to the owner but I just can't help it... :)

LOL yeh thanks for reminding me!

I didn't know it was the 40th anniversary addition!!! didn't know what I was looking for! All I wanted was black interior....

Oh bummer....if I'd only known.... :angry:

There is someone on the forum that has my interior now.

We can get it back if you want :angry:

It was great to meet up with all you guys. Good to see we had a few turn up for the inaugural Melb V35 Meet :D

Got to see what everyone had done before experimenting on my own car :)

Had to put the heater on full after I got it.. It was so f**ckn cold! Hopefully we can go for a cruise soon when we get some sunny days.

BenzLe...

And you thought I was gonna post that comment! I kept my mouth shut, but rs73 went and told everyone how silly you were...LOL...

Once I get my 2 x HID kits, halo kit, and frosted parkers, I am gonna bake my headlights and once the technique has been perfected, we can all have the baking day....hehehe. Any interest for my factory HID?

Hey everyone ;)

Guess what colour my car is? ...... SILVER lol most of the V35 skylines ive noticed are silver !

It is a 2 Door coupe, very beautifull car inside and out :(

100% the next meet i will be coming.

rs73 - i have the orange indicators aswell

:(

Hi everyone,

Sorry i missed the meet... work commitments. Although my work has provided me with the neccessary funds to buy my fantastic V35 so i'm not that upset.

I will also fess up to still having the orange indicators. A few more and we might outnumber the "clearies".

I'll definitely be at the next one though and it looks like i'll be the only one with a 70th Anniversary model that still has the cream interior. ;) Sorry BenzLe!

Hey guys how are you all doing?

Time for the second Melbourne meet? Perhaps a cruise? The weather is certainly a lot better now, it is a sunny 26 degrees outside as I write this message now!! :happy:

I was thinking about a meet at a hand car wash where I have some personal interest, we could meet up in the morning, get our V's nice and shiny whilst sipping on a nice latte and having a chat.....and then go for a cruise.

The deal is, we could get a deluxe car wash for half price (usually $30) and a free coffee for everyone. If you are not interested in having your V washed, you don't have to of course, you could meet us later or meet us there and just have a coffee with us.

Obviously the hardest point would be to find a suitable time for everyone to meet so I will set a time a few weeks into the future and we'll start planning it to see how we go.

So details as follows:

Date: Saturday 5th of December

Time: 10:00am

Place: Blue Water Hand Car Wash, 468 Mt Alexander Road, Ascot Vale

Cruise: Travel to St Kilda (via Lygon Street) and cruise down Beach Road to Mordialloc. (Just an idea)

Any takers?

LOL, we should be alright, there are plenty of hands on board, however I am not expecting 50 participants, I would suggest a great number would be 10 to 15, don't think we will get many more than that.

We got 7 to our first meet!!!

    • 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.
