Guys,

I just got my V35 sedan three weeks ago. Quite keen on a cruise and the proposed date of 30 Jan is fine for me (if you guys don't mind having a sedan tag along that is :-))

Hi thinktea, all V's are welcome.

I think it will only be a short cruise though this time. more of a social thing I reckon.

Will have to watch the weather, if we get more rain like we have had recently, my car will stay in the garage

The tyres that the compliance workshop fitted are shocking in the wet. Have only done about 7,000K on them and the have plenty of rubber but try going around a corner in the wet and you can forget it. Bloody Australian standards!

Anyone want to suggest a meet point and time?

1000 steps car park around 9.00 am OK?

Thanks...Hopefully the weather will be like today....absolutely glorious with not a cloud in the sky.

1000 steps car park sounds good to me..

Time and general location is good, but its there another carpark we can meet at around there? My car (and maybe a few others) will scrape the retractable spikes on the way out.

So a quite drive in the Dandenongs on Sunday 30th January, starting at 9.00 am

Followed by Snags on the barbie and a cold beer.

Still thinking about the exact route but want to end up back in Belgrave

Meeting Point...

Guys, so sorry again about leading you off the tarmac and onto the dust road. Hope you all got your cars washed since.

I know where we went wrong so it wont happen next time.

Big thanks to G35me for being a good sport.

Chris

    • 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.
