My Skylines/s have been my dailys since j got my license. Had a 1990 Ford Laser I bought for $200 when the 33 was off the road. Small bottom end knock, nothing major. Lasted... 4 hours until the bottom end knock turned into something much more major, drove it like that for a week then gave up! I think it was piston slap, but ended up taking it tithe wreckers after 4 weeks anyway.

I miss Clunky... Original name, I know :bunny:

Hopefully I can use my sisters 1.6L 323 Protege until I can afford a 4WD myself.

No, I love this thing, and thats my short trip town figure (5klm to work), it does 13's on the highway.

Plus, it's the best tow car ever for my race car AND takes me to Fraser Island for the holidays and sounds awesome.

Worth every penny :D

1984 Mitsubishi Colt sedan. Worked 4G32 (twin 40mm solex sidedrafts, bumped compression to 10:1, cam, porting, extractors, 2.25in exhaust) HH Galant GSR 5 speed LSD, dumped (it's got bout 65mm ground clearance atm lol) over 13x7 widened steelies wearing 155/60's and chrome dress rings using custom coilovers on all four corners based on TP Magna struts, , TP Magna brakes, MINT original body and paint, Sigma GSR rear spoiler, Bunnings garden edging front lip, detachable zoku exhaust tip, Nardi, dildo shifter, Bride reclinables, basic stereo and electrically adjustable jap market MZ11 fender mirrors.

It's a f**king awesome little car, I've surprised several guys on bikes and in performance imports through the twisties in it :D

The look on their face when they find out they've been beaten by a carby 1600 powered Colt is hilarious :rofl2:

+1 for pics, sounds incredible!

    • 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 ? 🤔
    • 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.
