You're turning into a new rogercordia, go f**k off elsewhere back to your polo forums ... dumbflamin mongrel..

What a tosser... VW forums are Vortex and Watercooled :P ...

Got lost did you?

You obviously skipped english class that day......spreading legs for the HPE teacher that day perhaps?

2 actually, and you can guess where they finished? I could only make out the front of there car in my rear view mirror about 4 secs into the race!

You've obviously never come up against a heavily worked Polo GTI before.

I suggest if you ever get to drive one to wear a neck brace, the torque is leathal, and will have you flopping around on the ground like a mullet out of water without one

Ah piss off all of you. Thats the comparison thats been going on for the last couple of pages. You come on a skyline forum and ask us about cars and (surprise surprise) you get an overwhelming response that (wow) skyline is the way to go.

If the same question was asked on the WRX forums the inverse would be true.

Congratulations assymmetry - your an idiot. Hope thats going well for you. I was in fact referring to the C-RED Evo. Pick up HPI No. 95. Tell me that isn't a good looking car with amazing performance in that package.

Sh*t don't get me wrong - fair enough you like your rex. Good on you - I can appreciate what they can do. I just don't prefer them to most other cars in the same price bracket. Just as you probably won't understand why I built a 500 horsepower carb fed V8 instead of building a boxer engine.

Take your panties and untwist them.

*walks away from thread never to return*

lol... you're kidding me right??

pm r33, i saw your feature in hpi, your car is impressive, not to my taste but its your car... it has gone beyond simple bolt on mods.. your car would start to spool up when his is dying off... last time i looked, i didnt see any r33 gtst's in superlap... or time attack in japan... or production car cups... or rallying... and they are very rarely seen in targa style events and hilll climbs... so you had a bit of fun with him in a straight line yeh?? wow..

215-220@all four is extremely mild and has no need for a fuel system upgrade yet, not if he has an sti engine... which vf does he have?? as sti's already came with a much larger turbo than the standard vf20 on the rex's.

ive seen a stock looking (clearly engine wasnt stock) my99 wagon do a u turn and then light up all four wheels by just standing on it, not dumping the clutch... just putting the foot down... i have been impressed by wrx's ever since.

The photos for the feature was taken 12 months ago to nearly this exact day, car has a lot more done to it now, but that's irrelevant.

Can you please explain what you mean by my car would start to spool when his is dying off? My car makes full boost, 1.5bar, by 3500rpm and pulls all the way to 7500rpm, so im a bit confused what you mean by that statement.

What does comparing my car have to do with time attack in japan or anything like that? Starting to make this a bit personal don't you think? Of course they aren't seen much in those events, since most people in those events have deep pockets, so why start with a lower ranged car when you can buy a GTR? I'll be racing my car in hill climbs and bitumen sprints as soon as i have the cash ready and the car setup the way i want it.

You are obviously impressed fairly easily if you see a WRX wagon getting some wheel spin and suddenly have the balls to target me out and start preaching to me don't you think?

this is my random little opinion... but isn't it a bit stupid to be putting the rwd's in with the awd's? they aren't in the same class.. if your going to be comparing evo's/sti's/skylines... they are using their best.. so why don't we compare with GTR's? or is that not fair? i mean i love most turbo's i love car's in general!

but wouldnt it just be better if you compared an evo/sti/gtr... for they are all the top sort of range of their class..all japanese...

on the other hand... comparing a 33 gtst or something to the normal wrx or whatever, it's possible but it's just more of what you want..wanna go round that corner sideways or wanna go round it with LOADS of grip :P your choice on what fun you have

my conclusion, as long as it's japanese.. buy it :yucky:

Well said man. I actually like WRX's, a few of my friends have them and are great cars. I was simplying commenting on what some one said that a WRX would "destroy" 90% of GTST's and that simply not the case, hence my comment. Suddenly i get targeted my old mate with a bit of a personal attack on my car.

not to my taste but its your car...
That comment really necessary? Couldn't have kept that one to yourself, felt the need to put it out there to make yourself feel good? Edited by PM-R33

being a wrx/sti owner for many years and having driven heaps of them, had the opportunity to drive an r34 gtr with basic mods such as exhaust tune and boost and all I can say is what an absolute utter disapointment. Having never driven one before, my first impressions when turning the key were...this is going to be good..after a thrashing for more than half the day...i got out of the car feeling like I had just driven one of those kermit green backyard turbo charged vn commodore wagons that tare the streets up down logan yo...

my sti would mince this thing up in standard form in any gear...

Just heard about you, Hulk go back to your XR6 forum.. have u sold the faamily sedan yet?

For the record, I also heard about that troll Asymmetry or that try hard from Rexnet. I have my friends there (yeh - thanx for that link.. reading it is hilarious) and I'm not sayin anything. Waht a bunch of tools. I don’t suffer from schizophrenia like those repeeat offenders that troll thru forums from forums they clearly don’t belong. What? You don’t have friends on your own neighbourhood?

Right so you are claiming your car can do 0-100 quicker than 3.2 seconds. So inturn you are claiming that your car is quicker than a Veron. Go tug your snake else where mate and wake up from never never land.

Yes that's exactly what I'm saying fluffy cuz.... Any time you want to bring your banana boat to the strip or track, let me know, I'll leave it in the dust of my GTR killer! When you see her power to weight ratio it will have you lining up at the closest VW dealership ready to hand over the keys to your skyrice - beware they may only give you $600 trade in (quote from redbook)

As for ms gtarse, if you saw my biceps and perfectly sculptured abs, I would have you on the bonnet of your GTR badged N/A skyline in a heartbeat, I promise. You would literally throw yourself at me, and although I have guns that would put arnie to shame, I think I would have a little trouble catching you!

    • 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"
    • 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:) Comparison of the 2: 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.
