After having a look at Ashneel's link, I suggest everyone take due care in what they proceed to type in this part of the forum.

This goes for you Luckiee and anyone else replying.

Awww Eug..... But but but....

seriously, this is probably your first car, so i guess i can understand that you want to be able to do burnouts, we have probably all been there at some stage of our life, and alot of us probably still do them.

word of advice, practice.... once you get it skidding a bit you will get more confidence and get better at it. dont compare your 2.5l against a commadore for wheel spins, you loose, but if you want to do it, practice and you will get there.

You will also get new wheels, brakes, gearboxes, rims (from gutter rash) and the list goes on and on... bare that all in mind when your having fun

what is the actual purpose of having to want to do a burnout?

why be so god damn stupid? im sorry but i just dont see the need to do a burnout.......but thats me maybe its because i cant justify wasting my 800 set of rear tyres on doing a burnout - let alone the amount of load the car is out under when doing a burnout.

why try to prove something like that? so u can be in the "in club" to look cool???

like i said maybe its me, but i really dont see the need for it. have i done a burnout in my car...no....has someone else....yes.......but once and once only is enough for my little car.......i dont want to put her under that sort of pressure again.

i dunno maybe people should respect their cars a bit more instead of trying to be heros and do burnouts and shizz......

my 2 cents

peace out.

question: how does using the gears on an auto gearbox cause less stress??? if only you would be cause stress being auto your holding the revs out computer wants to change to the next gear but your preventing it. eventually your box will get really sloppy and you will kill it

I'd wager most of us love doing a burn out, just for the sake of it too (from time to time). As far as where it is done, if you do it on the road (and get caught) more fool you. As we all know it is illegal and quite possibly dangerous too. As for stress on the car, sure it will stress it. But so will drag racing (on the strip) and so will circuit racing (on the circuit). Every time I go to the track I break something. It's what happens. That's what a lot of our cars are for. The real question is why would you (one) come onto this forum and say silly things, then have a big tantrum when everybody (understandably) gets stuck in. Such a big tanty in fact that it way as well have been a hand delivered invitation to get stuck in. I say due respect was shown to him. Gawd bless him.

i agree Cara, most people just do it once to get it out of their system. Other than that the only 'logical' reason I can see is to warm up those tyres prior to launching.

and i think that is a logical reason for it........the only proper reason for doing a burnout realistically is that i saw no other need for it.

but if u want to get it out of ur system then go and do it on the track or at a drag meet - do it legally

just a little off topic but say someone was doing something illegal and someone else videotaped this someone on a mobile phone and the first someone got the second someone to send it to him and now the first someone wants to get the video tape off his mobile and onto the computer?

the someone cant just transfer it for some reason and it only comes out as noise on the someones computer. anyone know a program that someone could download of the internet to convert someones moblile phone videos onto the computer.

cheers (someone)

kinda embarassing driving a skyline that can't rip up

Isn't it "kinda embarrassing" driving a non-turbo R33 anyway? Not quite as embarrassing as driving a Skyline with a slusho, but its still not something to go bragging about.

what is the actual purpose of having to want to do a burnout?

why be so god damn stupid?

That's a very slippery slope you're yelling down. The very same thing could be said about people tarting up entry model cars as show ponies and dyno queens, when the money spent could have been put into buying a good car to begin with.

To the OP, when I find that traction is not high on my priority lists I tend to use a bit of this on the tread face.

Unlike diesel or other lubricants, getting caught by the cops spraying this stuff onto your tyres isn't as plainly illegal....not that you'd be doing such a thing on a public road. It also scrubs off pretty quickly too, so after you engage in your drag strip warm-ups and go home it should return the tyre to normal.

You just need to try a different media player. I forget which one usually works. Should come preloaded on your machine.

Simple google search would turn up your answer.

don't know why people think non turbo skylines are so slow, obviously the turbos are faster.. but for a P plate friendly car there quite zippy, i beat all the other usual p plater cars easy with mine (fords commos etc) only other decent cars are the light weight worked VTECs lol.

P.S on the track ofcourse.

Does pretty much everything, and it's free, no catches. Been using it for quite some time now.

Haha, gotta love it. everyones like "umm what your doding is illeagal, but try this. should help"

fact is. your in an auto skyline man, its just not built to do stand stills, if you were drifting it would be a difforent story but even then your in an auto which is no good for drifting anyway. Your using the wrong car for the application.

that said, its a matter of factors ie. too much grip, the car is fairly heavy compaired to the power, and it really doesnt help that you dont have a clutch.

That's a matter of perspective, which is my point.

After all, that's what hardparking Civic drivers say about their rides too.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.

      So, a bit of a side trip, but one that might be interesting for people with JDM cars and japanese head units. I know @Pac previously posted about a carplay/android auto adapter he installed which used the AUX input, and @V35_Paul put in one of the Tesla style units that replace both screens. The option I went with was a Lsait LLT-YF-VER5.87_2 (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8GB-Android-Multimedia-Interface-for_1601187633672.html). Price was $1,150 for a single unit although they are much cheaper if you are willing to buy 2....$857ea. Make you you get the version 2 not version 1, it is faster and has a better UI - this is the manufacturer listing: http://www.lsailt.com/product/348.html. BTW if you've never bought from Alibaba before, don't be concerned....these guys can't stay in business unless they are responsive, ship fast etc, they were excellent (probably faster shipping than most local places) So, this was my task for a lazy Sat afternoon....looks complex but was all done in a few hours (it probably helps that I had some of it apart before so it was a bit familiar). I also decided to add a HD USB drive recorded at the same time and the unit also supports an aftermarket reverse cam (if you don't want to retain factory) and also AV in and HDMI out It looks much worse than it is, in fact in was genuinely all plug and play (no custom wiring at all). This video was pretty good (skipped a few steps), unfortunately they are an Aussie seller but no longer sell this unit (I guess Carplay/AA adapters are easier to install and much cheaper) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5hJfYOB8Dg

      Nissan fuga 450gt android screen

      By Duncan · Posted

      That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.

      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.
