Like the title says, does anyone on here own/owned an R34 with the pop up screen on the dash where the 3 center gauges or fixed mfd goes in the GTT and GTR? This one;

post-53546-1264052906_thumb.jpg

How does it turn on? Is there like an on/off switch? Is it wired into the ignition or Do you need the factory head unit to activate it? (make it pop up and turn on)

Does anyone know how the get the signal to the screen? RCA plugs ect.

Does the screen work similar to the fixed GTR screen as far as wiring work? I've found heaps of infor on here about the GTR screens but very little about the units I'm talking about.

I'm looking at doing a conversion in my car and hooking up a car pc to it. If anyone here had done this I'd love to hear from them or anyone in the Newcastle area that I could actually see working first hand would be fantastic.

Cheers in advance guys.

I don't.... it used to pop up or down whenever it felt like it lol

Then my battery died and when you disconnect the battery it kills your head unit/s so now it just stays down.

Lol fair enough then. Can you get the screen fixed?

I don't know :down: I'd like to use it for something, but I haven't looked into it, except to read what info's on here which seemed to be different for each case so no real standard answers on what's possible and what's not.

You at least have a Nissan logo... I just had the blue screen of death haha... you might have more luck than me :P

I just want to be able to play music again... the bottom HU died when the battery was disconnected as well :)

Intersting, is it motorised or spring loaded?

Motorised. Im interested if anyone has any idea of the wiring pins on the back of the tv unit (the big plug and the small 5 pin plug). All i want to know is can you make it open & close without the control unit - just suppling power to those pins.

You can find some of the wiring diagram on here if you search for it long enough using the screen model as the keyword but what you wont find is that you need the unit just to get the screen to work at all.

PM Chris Rogers.. i'm sure he can do something with some of them (from memory) but if he cant then no one can lol

Yeah that's what I ended up having to do. He basically said what I posted before; You can make them raise and lower but not much else.

works off the top navi unit. if that has video output of ANY sort then I can do something with it. thing being everyone is too much of a tightarse to let me try :)

I have a E50 El grand (same system) that has TV/navi on it. there is a big thread on this thing inthe car audio area. I posted up a lot of images on it and gave instructions on how to manually open the thing.

if all you have is the screen then I would suggest ripping it out. you need a data stream to fire it up and set the correct input on it. (it has 3 inputs.) there is no other wqay to make it run.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!

      http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.

      Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?

      Intro/R33 owner

      By f00stx · Posted

      Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).

      Second time Skyline owner (R33 GTS-T and now a V36 370GT)

      By f00stx · Posted

      Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
