Connected an Ipod cable that charges and plays my music through the stereo (some crap aftermarket head unit that came with the car)

Only problem is I must have moved a cable or done something because my airbag light is flashing on the dash! will have to pull it apart and see whats going on! I have no idea what wires it would be though!

Just wired up my new JVC DV5500 DVD head unit. Wired it up to the Asuka TV tuner I have. It does some cool things like control USB/iPods and video output of contents and CD details.

DVD video out which goes via the Asuka TV tuner to the Navi screen.

CD details when played via the HU.

I also worked out the piouts from the Xanavi unit so I could still use the unit as a CD player if I wanted. This is the adaptor I made up to suit the line in to the HU from the Xanavi. I just need t ofigure out if the HU has a AV in trigger. If it does I'll be able to wire up the Xanavi to turn the HU on when you power it up to play a CD.

and this is what you get, just like the stock headunit.

I fitted Jetwrecked's old AR-X springs to give me some more lift :) I also played around with taking some photos, most of them didnt turn out as I'd quite like, so I'll have another go at it soon (I was taking the photos for photographic experience rather than for the purpose of highlighting my new ride height, I'll be sure to take some of those soon too!)

Cheers :) it was a 30 second exposure (to get the city lights) @ f11, lens was my tokina 11-66 (shot at 11mm) - fired off a handful of speedlite flashes also :)

The height is awesome, I can now actually enter and exit my driveway without causing damage to my kit :) I haven't got a side shot yet, but I'll get one for you soon :(

http://www.nengun.com/unknown/ken-style-st...-aero-kit-21157 - dunno what the shipping will be like, and its sustained some damage, but if you're wanting to do some repairs on it well then its an option :)

Cheers

Andy

you removed the glove box didnt you.

gotta get me a shorter lens, and a half decent tripod, and a decent flash and many more things

have you tried any rolling shots? if you can hold something around 1/200 or even 1/100 shutter speed steady then they look awesome

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
