Hey everyone

I have been planning to turn my 260rs into a show car for quite sometime. Some people know i have quite a large custom stereo install in the car but the funds have come through that will allow me to completely finish the car of to a show quality. Quite ironically though my showcar has begun with the purchase of a new engine for the car which is as follows:

RB2.8L engine

N1 block

HKS step 3 2.8L kit (HKS pistons, rods and crank)

HKS 1.6mm drag head gasket

HKS exhaust and intake gaskets

HKS oil pump, HKS cam gears

HKS timing belt

HKS fuel rail

HKS 1000cc injectors

N1 water pump

Trust sump kit

Tomei 280 degree 11.5mm lift drag cam shafts

Tomei drag valve spring kit

Tomei titanium retainers

Tomei valve lifter

Race cut valves

Race valve guides

ARP head stud kit

ARP main stud kit

Race main bearing kit

Race crank bearing kit

ATI/Ross pulley kit

Race head port intake and exhaust

I am still undecided on what turbo to run though T04z for streetability when its done the shows or a T51r for fun on the dyno at comps

The car will also be getting a custom 2 tone paint job (top:black, bottom:white with thin blue break stripe) all with white ice pearl over the top.

The car will also get a full interior retrim in black and white leather

Will keep updated with photos as the build goes along.

The plan is to debut the finished car at perth autosalon 2011

cheers daniel

    • 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.
