2. An SAU event with no Skylines cant be taken too seriously.

3. Horus were you at the beachside cruise. ( I dont think so but I may be wrong coz I dont know what you look like) If you were there accept my apologies

"thats right

all you guys who didnt show up are a bunch of fkn sl*ts

Sorry i couldnt come guys...

I said in the other thread that i couldnt make it...

I had my son on the weekend.. and although he would have loved to come with me and talk to you guys about cars n sh!t.. dont think i would have been allowed to bring him into a bar some how..lol

Anyway.. whoever went.. sounds like a great time was had by all..

Dont lose the spirit guys!!

Maybe Chapel St drinks isnt for everyone...

Maybe a get together at someones house to watch some footage of some cruises etc might suit others better.. or maybe some are more interested in just cruises for now as they might still be shy..

Anyway.. ill stop rambling..

TTFN

Cheers

A very good point Kyles.

Perhaps the 'drinks event' is an area best left alone for now - I don't think my liver could handle another one soon anyway. Snowman and I should keep training though, you know... just in case...

Maybe more emphasis on cruise/bbq events - like, as Clarky said, the Christmas BBQ - are more applicable. You can't throw the vortex in a pub :D

Soo - I guess to leave this one at that.

A pity there wasn't more of you. Is kinda fun going drinking with 'new' friends... but in the end it didn't stop us having a good time... and I wont even mention the nachos.

We'll have some fond memories (at least when the photos are developed) - and hey, we met Sammi's dad - who's as close to a celebrity as SAU has ;)

And let no-one forget: Billy Dee Williams is the only Lando

Beachside cruise?

*scratches head ponderously*

yer I think I was there, and its all good, its understandable that people have prior commitments on a long weekend, but daym, a lot of people said they were coming but never materialized.....

As i said in the other thread...

i ran into trouble Sat night...  

Got attacked by a woman... but i think she was a man

I lost my frigging mobile phone, hence why i couldnt call anyone!

i'm never drinking again  ;) it always end in tradgedy. And this one is going to bost me $100 god-damnit

    • 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"
