Hey guys,

i've never really blown my own trumpet on here before, even earlier this year when i was in my first car feature April Hot 4's. But today there's a spread in the technology section of the Herald Sun and its bloody annoying waking up to txt messages, but when you're woken up by mates telling you your famous and it looks great i can't complain :-)

And good news too, the skyilne was the first featured car that takes up half the first page. No mention of hooning etc so maybe this will help enthusiasts look better than hoons and a step in a positive direction for a change etc... ...but probably not

two thirds of the way down this page shows you the set up: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Au....html&st=40

i'm really happy with it, and was surprised they found me for an interview but am stoked! wanted to post pics of my car a while back at the first autosalon november 07 but didn't get around to it, and still to this date have not had other people comment too harshly which is good, but any feedback i'd love to hear it :D ...maybe

remember seeing this down at freddy's getting all the interior done.. I remember he was so stressed about making sure it was ready for autosalon..I said to him then when it looked a bit of a mess this car will look mean..and at autosalon it definately did that!!! I love the work put into it and the designs...great stuff..and congrats on the spread in the Herald!

I read through the article and looked online...

awsum setup mate...there was only one part that was disapointing...

"I'm renovating a house so the Nissan's going in the garage and I wont be touching it."

Although Im too young to know how hard it must be to fix up a house... just saying :thumbsup:

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
