Watch out ! Its photo time with Uncle Gordo!

Well its been about a month since I moved up here. Regret not one single thing about moving here, which has been great. Been travelling around a heap, up to Sunshine Coast, down to the Gold Coast, around Brisbane and lots of other places. Everything is unbelieveable up here and so much better, and I don't think I'll be coming back to VIC anytime soon unless on holiday. Up here *every* day feels like a holiday :P

Anyhow, had my fun and my semi-holiday, now its the new year better get serious about finding work and boring stuff like that.

So I've been going crazy with the digital camera on my travels.. some large photos here, but most of you are slacking off at work so i'm sure its not too much troublez :)

Rainforest up near Birra Burra and of course some skylines:

BAHAHA, umm im getting ready to go out, the 'tuning' will be done later tonight on the dyno... :zap:

hehe, its kind of a long drive though, although not that bad as long as some f*cker truck doesn't rip your door off! New panel goes on tomorrow, then at some stage i'll get them painted - i'll post a pic, the multicoloured 33 :P

yup, its really good - i'm sure the "new" feeling will where off a bit when i have to do boring things like work, etc but for now its awesome..

btw: note my new sig :)

are you there forever now?

make sure you go to woodford folk festival from 26th of decemder - 1st of jan (end of the year i know) awesome, been twice, once as a guest and once as a performer. and its boiling but pissing down rain, and they are all free lovin hippies there, i may go this year to play drums

so yes

GO!

Stands up and salutes his home state...

Nice pics gordo, the drive to the glass house mountains is very scenic... Did u make it up to coolum and noosa?

We could do a whole promotional campaign, where we take pics from our day to day lives, just to rub it in a touch, lol.

The feeling of being on holiday never wears off, well its hasnt for 14 months for me :D Qld is not just a place to live, its a lifestyle

:zap:

hehe, it would be too easy! yeah, lots of photos have turned out great. Made it up to Noosa for a bit (although it was a bit grey at the time) but believe it or not i think its way overrated, seemed pretty shitty to me. Better beaches and lots of other things many other places.

my mate who was up for a couple of weeks and had never been, quickly came to the conclusion it was better than melbourne and i just said "well told you so, now back down to melbourne with u and all the other mexicans! :D"

    • 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.
