Yeah... I tried to mention they were disbaled and my post went into some sort of black hole :P

im sick of this site not loading , tried making a donation but cant no one knows how too ATM. Just gettin rediculous now

Donations are disabled at present, have been since last year due to other issues we were having with the entire system :P

Will be fixed shortly, it's my next "to-do" item!

:P

Perhaps pranks paypal email posted in here for the people who would like to donate. Then they could easily PM for a member tag etc

Guys, I am begging for patience. The new server is being provisioned as I write this and I have started a 100GB sync of SAU to Amazon's S3 for backup (and static serving while we wait for stuff to copy to the new Aus server).

Wont be long guys.

Re donations - Waiting to hear from SAU's accountant about this, seems I can't legally accept donations unless I am registered as 'not for profit'. So, will likely set up some form of cheap 'subscription' service in the not too distant future.

Thanks guys.

I'm impressed at the patience YOU show Prank! Doing all this, free of charge and having people jsut bitch and complain about it and you beg?!

You're a far more patient person then me :laugh:

Have you thought about or discussed leaning on the state clubs a little bit, either sending donations through them (we are not for profit organisations) or asking for donations from the clubs?

I recommend all the people complaining about the lag to please donate money to SAU. Australian servers cost a lot more than american servers and thats the only solution to get everyone quick page loads.

Open up your wallets people! Barely anyone who posted in here have a 'donated' tag under their avatar.

IM sure if there was a specific thread made up in the general section and then spammed to everyones email address advising that donations could be made to better the site i reckon you could buy 5 servers (or gizzmos that makes thing better) i have NFI on the

intricacies of forum goodness :blush:

might be worth a shot if money is the the only hold back?

Money was a problem, however over the past 6 months Blitz & Myself have sought to fix that issue.

Now it has been turned around for the good - Christian is now able to move us back to home shores and other things that need attention. :blush:

i just want to clarify that i wasn't complaining about the issues i was having, just letting you know what was happening. and it seems to be running good at the moment. i think it only had 1 issue yesterday morning and has been good since.

Site will be a bit slow for the next day or so. We're transfering the 100GB gallery atm and also replicating the db to the new server.

Aiming to switch it over tomorrow night if we have enough of the transfer done.

    • 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.
