My last gf hated that I loved my car so much and that I rate it over commonwhores etc.

She also claimed I think everyone is trying to race me...

Sit in her car and she'd do 10-20k over the limit in her little hatchback.

Current squeeze likes the car and how fast it goes...

The re-shimmed diff... makes to much noise going slow and turning...

also she doesn't like that it's got a bit of power now... she's scared to drive it lol....

+1

and the,

"why do we have to have the music off and windows down? ..its cold"

while doing a mountain drive :P

completly agree with above reply ;)

*opens drivers window*....."its cold"...*backhand*

fixed :P

but yeh totally - silly girls :P

From starting out hating me and my car before we even met (she hates skylines and all associated with them) she's now dating the Vice President os SAU:NSW and has admitted to liking my car, but ONLY my car :banana:

Next step, she's already said she will buy me parts for it! :D

my gf was going to buy me Ray's wheel nuts the other day until she found out they were around $280 lol. Was impressed that she's learnt that much about imports to know the brand names and where to buy them lol.

Lol, you've trained her well!! :(

.... and +1 to the window down complain!

1. Twin plates too rough.

2. Too cold... windows are not allow to be down while she's in the car.

3. I'm having car sick because you accelerate too fast!

4. You letting the clutch go too fast !!!!!! (apparently she knows how to drive twin plates)

hahahaha, funny thread guys.

no complaints here except i dont let her drive it 1km up the road to work to park it under a tree filled with birds that crap on it.

so i drive her to work and tinker with the rine all day :D

Oh mine does HATE how she's not allowed to drive it, but I usually drive her Datsun 1200 everywhere lol, my reasoning being that since my gearbox is currently crunchy on 4th gear changes + heavy pedal, that I don't want any extra damage done to the gearbox lol.

She also hates the amount of time i spend on SAU with all my "internet mechanic loser poof buddies" :(

my magnificent wife complains about the minispool skip.....the fact i always seem to wear out the back tyres...on the good side...she bought me a T04e for valentines day...and entered in a competition which eventually won me a $5000 performance upgrade to my 31......thanks to triple m radio adelaide and D&T performance.....xmas just gone she bought me 4 litres of primer, 4 litres of clear and 4 litres of gunmetal grey metalflake with blue, green and copper pearl in it

lol Bakes man your car is teh sex!

i get the too stiff, too low, too much time spent working on it, more cash goes into car then her, too much time on SAU, hates me waving at other Line drivers she says "Not everyone that drives a Skyline is on your bloody forum". slaps my arm with any wheelspin in the wet no matter how small and accidental and hates that i always ask for parts for bday/christmas. she loves teh power though lol

I went on a date with a girl the other week and the only thing she hated about my car after driving it (she told me) was getting back into her Lancer muhahahaha :mrt:

    • 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"
