I never once said I did that on public roads. That's just stupid and irresponsible.

Just how I read it :)

Getting the car tonight. Compression check, spot on. Rego check - PASS!

I put the stock rims on, and all was fine.

Number plate lights are out, and so is the wing light, but it was passed - just was told to fix those - as they are things I'd get booked for if drove it like that.

So now can somebody tell me how to fix/replace the lights for the wing...?

The wing lights are LED's yeah?

EDIT: Ok pending pass, i gotta fix numberplate lights and wing light.

It may just we wiring. I'll get somebody I know to take a look monday.

Simple enough fixes.

Took it to : Premier Automotive Repairs, 5 Winchcombe Lane, Mitchell - 62428450

Great guys there. They replaced one of my wheel studs that was stripped on my Pulsar also.

Just how I read it :)

NP, I don't want to be thought of as a fool or irresponsible or get myself banned for something coming across wrong.

The wing lights are LED's yeah?

yeah I think so... might just be wiring, not at all sure.. Just gotta take a look and fiddle and see if can sort em out, asap. Least those fixes won't cost me a fortune.

Oh they did note "Advise: exhaust height at 100mm". Rear exhaust as it curves under the rear axle it sits at at 100mm, long as as I don't put to fat bastards in the back it's all good. Plus the suspension is stiff enough any way.

nononononono, wherever I went Andrew, it was about as close to the DIY car wash in Lanyon as you can get...

That's the place.

Thats what i thought the 1st time, google lied to me the bastards lol, its good but, like 2mins from my house :)

Hey, can you guys help me better understand the differences between S1, S2 and S1.5 cos this is a S1.5 and has elements of both together. I read the thread on the differences between S1 and S2, but still bit lost.

I think I read somewhere that s1.5 was just s1 with factory options that s2 came standard with, like ABS and airbags....I'll let someone clarify though

ah fair enough.

More or less, no difference. Coils are old enough that their original quality is negligible as they're probably about to fail anyway. CAS probably wouldn't make much difference if any. Turbo....well, same sorta deal as the coils - but if my series 1 turbo is anything to compare to, you won't have any worries running it at 11psi all day every day, which is just shy of hitting R&R anyway.

Thing is, this one has the S1 front grill, and lights, S2 rear lights etc, but S1 Grey bar with SKYLINE on the back.

Thats all I really knew for sure.

It has NO abs nor does it have either drivers or passengers airbags.

Not sure if actually is S2 engine or not (turbo, coils etc)..

I have one pending problem that discovered this arvo when collected the car back from the mechanics... They'd not hooked something back right and now it's misfiring.. So gotta take it back and make em fix it in the morning... Damn bastards. This is why I don't like going to mechanics.

We had a really good look and can't find anything, so gonna have to get em to strip it back to the plugs like did today for the compression check, and they better have it sorted for me. I'm so pissed off.

    • 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.
