Hi guys,

New to the skyline scene here. Just bought my first skyline last week, R34 GT-T, and I was wondering if any one could/ or knows where to go to get it installed properly.

I bought it from autobarn and they can install it for $100 and itll take an hour or so. I figgured that SAU people would know if this is decent or maybe some one could help me.

The guy at Autobarn has never installed a Greddy auto turbo timer II before, so im a bit hesitant to get them to do it properly.

Any one can help? Im on the northside but can travel anywhere i need to.

Cheers in advance! :(

Ricky

Hey man welcome to the forums :D

Just for future reference I wouldnt buy anything like that for your car from Autobarn . . . Ide lean more towards some of the site specific traders like just jap :D

Anyways good luck with tha installation ! ! !

Oh yeah dont forget to post up some pics of your car when you get a chance . . .

P.S. 34 FTW :)

i say get ur $100 back and not worry unless you have been thrashing the crap out of it just before you stop it is useless and best to just drive easy for the last min or 2 before you stop as light driving will cool better than letting sit idle

Yeah man a friend of mine said hes got a mate near runcorn that can install it for a couple of bucks and carton of beer! haha I live on the northside, near Chermside... Yeah its got 3 pins on the connector.. looks like this if you hold it on the side: [=|]

I just rather get some one that has done it before and knows what there doing, and i can watch them so i know what to do next time. the model is a: Greddy full auto timer II. The one with a seperate face.

Cheers,

Ricky :D

I have a connector that will plug that into the car with no cutting. - at wavel hts btw.

Oh just down the road from me! How long would it take for you to fit it and have it up and running? Also what would you charge?

Cheers!

Ps. I've heard about you Chris... That your the guy that knows everything.. haha.. (thats a good thing)

Its plug and play if you buy the connector of Chris.

Like 3 plugs and your done unless you want the 0 to 100 and theft/saftey functions (about the only thing it is good for) then you need to splice wires to handbreak and speed sensor on the ecu.

Or i am sure Chris can do it for you at a good price he is one of the best.

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Ha ha, yeah, I've had one following me around in my parts boxes since about 2007 I believe. Just a little iddy bit hole drilled in the one I have to let it vent out once pressure was removed from the engine side. Still no idea what I'd put it on, ha ha.

      Anybody affected by the M1 minefield this morning?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Just read this... Just a little bit of a wild one! Do you think the driver was testing out a new feature/device for how to lose the cops in a high speed chase?   I also suspect, if the box has a road sweeper that does magnetic metal pick up, he does a LOT of work in the machining industry. Which is what most of that looked like, machining chips from a mill or lathe. And I bet they're RAZOR sharp! And from an environmental perspective they really do need to actually collect all of those little pieces too. I wonder how many people still cop flat tires over the coming months on that road?   As for insurance company, yeah, it'd be interesting to hear what they say to the owner. But realistically, he's right, that "It's his fault". In the way that, it was his truck that spilled it, so they need to clean it up. However, neither he, nor his insurance company may bear the end cost if they do an investigation and find out it was caused by someone elses negligence (And they know who)...

      Yeah, no matter what bad things people can say about Julian from Autospeed, he at least was capable of thinking and his inclusion of a check/relief valve in the plumbing for the Audi boost controller, that I made a copy of and used for years**, completely eradicated that problem. **It's still lying on my workbench where I put it about, um, 18 years ago and have never found a home for it!

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I didn't actually know this! I've seen photos of the H1, mainly outside shots, and they just look "different". I guess there'd be a few little changes like nicer rims, and probably the fact they have nicer looking paint with some depth and shine, which will make any vehicles body look different to the very flat colours of the defence force.   I've watched the guys on GHPC convert their Humvee to LS1, and they've done some really nice front shock upgrade. I'm waiting for the next video on it with the rear end done. I can't remember if they've already done it, or I dreamed it, but I believe they're also supercharging theres. They will be in the future doing proper long travel suspension too.   If you ditch out your big V8, as rubbish as it must be, send it to my place. I'll let the unreliable V8 motor and box be here. I just like V8s... So I'll find something to do with it... Even if that something is just taking up valuable space in the yard. I might have something Skyline I can send back in payment... Or even Ford Barra motors  (From memory you're in Canada yeah?) So you can then play with the legendary Aussie 4L version of an RB...  Except they don't have that distinctive random miss at idle like the RB25 does.

      Or you mean the age old problem of early 2000's manual boost tees, where they never let the pressure out of the line between the boost tee, and the waste gate, so after your first trip on boost, the damn wastegate liked to stay open and be laggy on gear change?
