I'm just going to have a bit of a rant-

I work on a measly $600 p/w wage, with commission paid monthly. Now i say measly because i live in Mackay and for those of you who don't know it's a very big mining town so prices for things like rent and food are through the roof.

I don't have huge amounts of traffic in my yard as it's new and still getting on it's feet, but i do okay. I just got my payslip for my monthly commission to see i've been taxed literally every cent of the commission i made, the only thing that i got extra was a bonus incentive from my boss. Apparently on commission i get taxed 28% of earnings and my boss gets taxed 34% so he says. I am not happy! Definitely not fair at all.

End rant, time for a 3 day holiday :)

I paid close to enough in tax to cover 2 people's doles last financial year. Need bonuses to allow for extra purchases etc due to current financial issues but most of it goes to the dirty homeless b**(((78 who doesn't have a job but can pop out kids left right and centre.... Just sayin!

Me and my mrs want to move to Brisbane next year, and Infiniti in Brisbane are taking applicants as of end of this year.. Might end up working for them when i head down there. That would be awesome!

Know one of the consultants there. Let me know if you're interested.

Definitely will hit you up, if i do end up coming down. We want to come down mid next year, need time to save and get things organised. My mrs wants to do animation at brisbane uni and wants to start around the beginning of semester 2 or 3 i think.

Over the weekend my passenger side window started playing up, and my drivers side lock.

Expensive weekend:(

how does your lock play up, as in when you hit unlock on the key nothing happens? I get that sometimes, shits me to tears. Especially in public.

Checked your battery mate?

Meh, I know nothing about horses and the like.

Nor do I :P deposited $50 into betting account. Walked away with $90. Can't complain.

It unlocks my passengers door but not my drivers door. Super annoying!

Mine does that every now and then, not very often though. So annoying i agree.

im looking into replacements parts at the moment... might tint the front windows while they are out and maybe install some new speakers

Good idea to swap a few things around while you've got the bits off the car. I need some new front door speakers, i also need a new ipod plug thingy as mines all tattered and shitty. Can anyone recommend a good brand i can pick up from Autobarn or Jaycar?

    • 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 ? 馃
    • 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.
