Thought i would post to ask if any of you would like to pop over to a new section which has been kindly set up by the owner of the huge 'Skyline owners forum' (over 20K members) in the Uk and share information about our cars. In the UK we are using a lot of Australian tuning products like APS and Haltech so it would be good to hear your modified preferences with regards to body kits and performance. Also if you could post some pictures up of your rides in the picture thread im sure the UK owners would be thankful.

We could also provide a link back to this forum.

Cheers Tom

got a cruise solution for yours yet? ( I make one.)

Nobody i know has got one yet however cruise control isn't a big concern in the UK as most of our roads arn't that long. I see you also do audio conversions, we have been looking for a way of changing the JDM set up so our sat nav/dvd controls are in English and how we can get the Sat Nav system to work in the UK .

were still working on that one too.......... :)

more than likely i dont think this will ever become a reality. So an aftermarket unit in place of the factory system is ideal.

needs an actuator for a start. from there its up to you waht you fit to it. if you are doing a specialist insurer then its going to need a Oz stds item.

where are you?

cruise can be done *easyish* if you are mechanically minded - I sell it as a kit and its NOT a factory item. I use modified factory buttons so it looks that way but thats it. DVD is along the same idea.

    • You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before
    • OK, so a bunch of trim needs to come off to get to the rear shock top mounts. Once the seat is out of the way, the plastic trim needs to come off. Remove 2 clips at the top then slide the trim towards the centre of the car to clear the lower clip Next you need to be able to lift the parcel shelf, which means you need to remove the mid dark trim around the door, and then the upper light trim above the parcel shelf. The mid trim has a clip in the middle to remove first, then lift the lowest trim off the top of the mid trim (unclips). At the top there is a hidden clip on the inner side to release first by pulling inwards, then the main clip releases by pulling the top towards the front of the car. The door seal comes off with the trim, just put them aside. The the lighter upper trim, this is easy to break to top clips so take it carefully. There is a hidden clip towards the bottom and another in the middle to release first by pulling inwards. Once they are out, there are 3 clips along the rear windscreen side of the panel that are hard to get under. This is what the rear of the panel looks like to assist:
    • Yes. Autos typically work from the speed sensor on the pinion shaft of the diff. I also think that even if you have a proper speed sensor for the bog manual in the manual box, that the signal it outputs is not compatible with the auto dash anyway. You should consult that manual (the book, not the gearbox).
    • And I just realised that that advice is slightly nonsensical for a GTR, because you need 2 of them. But it is otherwise true.
    • Having had a reasonable look at the car, I'll be able to remove the (one time) rams and retract the hinge (they are held in the down location by a tiny (m3?) sacrificial screw) which will get it physically back in shape. From there if you remove the rams you need a resistor to turn off the airbag light (as Mark said, there are plug in kits and I might go that way because its reversible). And...per all the threads on here, even if you have the resistors to turn off the airbag light, the bonnet light will stay on as it writes to the airbag computer history - that is either replace the airbag controller, reprogam the EPROM (if I can work out how), or remove the globe from the dash. Having seen how sensitive this system is, if I had my time over I'd pre-emptively remove the rams, even on a road car, because this is all a very unnecessary pain in the arse. Reminds me, time to go and have a look at the Fuga too....
