Well I got my braided lines and wireless reverse camera in the mail yesterday

When you figure out how to make it work let me know. Mine is useless. Pioneer screen goes black when it kicks into reverse but no images. :rolleyes:

Ask Brad (ducati02). He will be making mine work, he will be able to sort it for you.

Well I got my braided lines and wireless reverse camera in the mail yesterday, just waiting on the rear rotors and suspension now.

Not sure if I'm even getting my suspension now. If I don't hear from Street to Track by tomorrow I'll be reporting to the bank to get my money back. Service is terrible, and still waiting for my shocks 3 weeks later. Now they guy won't even respond to emails. Major disappointment.

Sorry to hear dude. Didn't someone else use them and found get were ok?

I had some major issues with emailing him, was taking hours for the email to get through to him and reply back to return. I thought his provider or mine were very laggy. Hopefully this is the case... Do you have his number?

Either your camera doset have supply when in reverse or your video isnt pluged in. A black screen means there is no video input. Try another video source into that channel.

Re Street-to-Track, I used him for my BC's and found him good to deal with. He replied to my emails by next day at the latest. They did take a while to arrive, but I thought that was 'cause they were custom spring rates. IMO the hold up will be at the factory, but that doesn't excuse him keeping you in the dark. I hope they arrive soon Ryan.

I went through him and to be honest it was a pretty smooth transaction and they arrived way faster than I thought they would. Hopefully it works out for you mate.

So what is the game plan for rear spring removal? Do you need spring compressors?

Thats why I gave him a go, plenty of positive reports on here. But since I handed over the money his attitude changed and giving me the time of day has been a hassle.

I think his number is on the invoice, so I'll give him a call tomorrow.

Na just unbolt the lower control arm from the hub, I have the car just off the ground and a jack to take the load, pull the bolt out and release the jack slowly. Job done. Will take all of about 10 min to remove both sides :)

Thanks Brad.. I've pulled out the head unit and made sure everything is connected so my next guess is power.

Cheers Mike!

Me and working on cars in a rush does not mix. Just stuffed a high tensile bolt using a little bit too much force. Need more patience! :rolleyes:

Anyone know if 55110FB and 55269+D in this picture is the same as any other Nissan? I've seen this type of bolt before, maybe just on my C34 Stagea. Any suggestions as to where to get one? Try and get one from Nissan or just go to a fasteners place?

:thanks:

Pretty retard move on my behalf. The bolt was a tough one to come off, had a little slit through some of the threads. When I threaded it back on by hand it went a good ten or so turns and then stopped. I figured the thread would come good given just a bit of force and before I knew it I had a very useless piece of metal.

Followed your measurements Dale and they are WAY off hahah. I'm sure I screwed up something. The front end is slammed while the rear end is slightly lower than stock. Might raise the front this weekend otherwise I'll just wait until my wheels rock up.

Pics!

Apparently mine actually might be coming, STT just don't have any updates, and I get the impression he couldn't care less.

Since he's now over both deadlines he gave me and hasn't even seen a shipping confirmation I have no idea what is going on. But I won't be doing this again.

Would you believe Jetwreck and I (but mostly me) stripped exactly the same bolt in the rear of my car when lowering the rear!!!

Had to go for a quick drive to somewhere we knew there were some similar boltswhistling.gif

Warning to others- they strip easy!

I have to say I feel like a lot less of a retard now.. :rofl2:

FYI the bolt and nut would have cost me $18 genuine from Nissan. The bolt would have come from QLD and was one day away while the nut would be a 10 day wait from Japan.

    • 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"
