Hahha I or even DD Drift Day, but I was still new to the whole camera thing then and th video's then weren't all that great due to placement and lighting I think the Buller vids are probably the best BY FAR of any videos i've taken so yea I've already edited them and ther is one section that has someone's plates visable so I have to blur them out before I can upload them, its just that for some reason Facebook plays up when I try to upload them but I'll keep you guys posted. (I'm doing on FB cause I'd like to regulate who can see them...although I think YouTube may have a feature like that....I'll look into it)

Jamessssss...Do you still have all the original videos? If I give you like $5, can you post them to me on a DVD? :action-smiley-069:

+1! i wana see the f**k up!

wonder if im gona epic fail in front of you guys when i get my car...

lol... you epic fail enough without a car !

you love it!

just epic failed before.. starting cutting away at a fridges copper pipes... before pluging it up form the compressor. R404A refrigerant gas EVERYWHERE. that cant be too good for the ozone

sweeeet. that means you are planning round two for next year. :)

Yea but he's not planning to cook for it, personally it was a big part of the cruise it REALLY made it unique and I don't care if I have to pay $130-150 for it, this cruise is like no other and personally I would like Hamish to pocket some of the cash for 30-40 hours for prep having to do a pre run, to taxi all the food up the day before...this is not including the time he took to plan, and book everything he is probably one of the only people I wouldn't mind paying a little extra for this kind of service. I hope you guys back me up on this because we all know how amazing this curise was.

PS. Admitably there is some part of me which is Asian...usually that part has alot to do with money so naturally a stingy bitch so for everyone who didn't come...the fact that I'm willing to pay more and want hamish to get some sort of financial gain out of this mean you REALLY missed out on a freaking FANTASTIC cruise

for those that are interested

Finally have found out (since yesterday) that the cause of my car dying was a cracked radiator prob explains why my overflow tank was boiling when we were at Skyhigh

So what has happened my radiator would of lost all fluid then my engine quickly burned up and went POP!

So i'm replacing the engine with another RB25DE thats only done 62,000 k's which is less than half the amount of k's my original engine had done (150,000)

it seems i'll never live down that spin :D

but i do have my 5 stud conversion done now, so R33 GTS-T brakes all round is gona pull up way better next time.

just gota chuck my wider wheels on and some sticky rubber, and i'm ready for round two,

I'd even pay twice as much, thats how awesome this cruise was

    • 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.
    • 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"
