Omg I just got into work and everyone jumped at me asking if I knew who it was.

Can you scan the article and post it up? Anyone?

The only silver 33 with black bonnet I can think of is alpinestars(andrew?) but I think he's done a 34 front end and doesnt have the black bonnet anymore.. plus it's probably off the road?

What page ???

shizzles.

definetly hope reckless driving wasnt apart of it

like 8 months ago there was a supra that lost control and went over the median trip over the otherside of the road and into park bollards... driver ran. and that was on hepburn as well.

depending where.. the curbs on the median can be huge, or no curb.

There's been a dismal start to the holiday season after a horror weekend which saw three people die and more than 10 injured on WA roads. A 20-year-old Beechboro man was killed last night when his car hit two vehicles head-on in Duncraig and on Saturday a woman and her three-year-old son died in the State's South-West when she crashed into a tree.

The fatalities brought WA's road toll to 192.

A police spokesman said that in last night's tragedy, the man was travelling west in a Nissan Skyline on Hepburn Avenue in Duncraig when he crossed the median strip and crashed into two cars travelling in the opposite direction. Six other people involved in the crash were taken to hospital. Police are investigating whether speed was a factor in the crash.

The Saturday smash saw the woman's Daewoo Hatch hit a tree on Donnybrook Road.

The 30-year-old woman's five-year-old daughter survived and was flown to Princess Margaret Hospital.

Police believe the children, who were sitting in the back seat, were not wearing seatbelts.

Late yesterday, three people were injured when their car rolled on South Western Highway near Brunswick.

One man was airlifted to Perth with serious leg injuries.

Yeah Page 11, sorry guys I'm in a call centre atm so can't scan articles and took me awhile to come back to the thread.... hmm... I thought of checking the show and shine thread ?? But there's allot of pages ;)

    • 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.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
