Want to hear something really shady....there is an importer(not being specific) currently advertising a 2003 6 speed manual and a 2004 6 speed manual Axis......would be awesome to have though. :down:

Just goes to show guy's...alway's know all you shit before trying to import and comply.

Same importer Jet.

I hadn't looked that they were still advertising them.

I think it was more a case of one naive person at a workshop claiming they could do something that they couldn't (I got the same advice from them initially as the other import broker), only to have their phone run hot with inquiries and his boss go postal on him because they couldn't actually comply non-turbos.

It was me who requested the removal of the thread, following a request from the workshop owner.

Anyway, sorry for the OT discussion, Muz.

The difference is Kristian, that you did some research before jumping in. Thus avoiding making an arse of yourself.

Well there you have it - I stand corrected!

:D

Thanks for the clear up Kristian, it should bring the topic to a close for the time being.

And to Muz - Sorry to hear that it turned out this way, and that you had to be the one who went through it. I hope that it doesn't sour your taste of the flavour of Japan too much :bunny:

Absolutely not. My next car will be a Volvo S40 T5 AWD ........ oh wait they're not made in Japan are they :P

If that is the case, you will have to start up a thread "That's a nice Stagea mate!... Yeah it is in't it" with your stories of people confusing your car with a Stag :blink:

Cheeky bugger...

One day you'll own something that is confused/accused of being something else Kristian - something like someone calling your Ferrari a FIAT (or for that matter, any euro GM marque a FIAT) :blink:

Technically Ferraris are Fiats :)

On that note, a BMW X5 owner waved me down in my Cedric the other day and asked if it was the new Mercedes Benz haha. When he discovered it was a Nissan, he feigned interest for about 30secs then took off....

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      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

      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.
