I do see the level of police activity has increased. at this point only looking to do a meet and greet in a car park or such maybe grab a feed and have a chat. If they really feel the need to crash a "polite" meeting of the minds then let them do it, I am just keen to see what others are lookin at doing with there line's. I guess I need a little inspiring at the moment. Getting to event's as of late has been a challenge due to work commitments seems the more money you strive to make the more overtime you have to do.

anyway back to the topic at hand haha,

when you move into your shop HKS we could just have a northsiders only meet there as its only a handful of us check out your new shop and even RPM could get involved ??

or maybe a meet up on Mount Mee or somthin??

spotted a silver R34 4 door last night at around 8:45 driving along morayfield road and pulled into the late night chemist/bowling alley,

an unmarked toyota aurion police car jumped right on his tail when he moved to the far left lane at caboolture river road lights (figured he was gonna nail it I would guess)

then nearly ran up the skylines arse when he braked to turn into the first driveway lol

I'm in Burpengary but mainly drive it around Morayfiled.

Car: 2003 V35 Coupe.

Colour: Silver.

Mods:Pod, Exhaust, 19 ROH Wheels, Sound System.

Plans for the next Mods: Momo Steering wheel, Xenon Lights.

Owned for: 4 Years.

Plates: Should remind you of the term "Evil Chicken". But I won't put the number up here. You'll know it if you see it :)

Laid my eye's on a really nice blue R32 this morning behind me. Had a black bonnet, would of like to have gotten a better look at it but I had to take the lad to football. Graham Rd on to morayfield Rd

the northside thing has tried to get going several times including a go from me and doesnt seem to take off but i would happily support your efforts .....

i personally have never been 'targeted' by a cop, ive been looked at twice but can honestly say ive never been a toss. the thing that is going to make or break a meet is how you all act when you drive there and leave. So if you turn up blazin and leave with skids then your gonna shit a whole lot of people off real quick and we will all get lumped together.

where ever you decide to go i would tell / ask the business and surrounding ones if they have any issues. this happended with the chapel hill icecream meet for a bit where the other business owners were not happy and the dramas went from there. if your going to a particular place then you really need to support it, for example buy dinner, taking up 10 spots in someones carpark stand around cars and maybe buying a coke i dont think would go down well.

im stumped as far as locations except maybe redcliffe somewhere?

what about the nando's and stuff on Michael Avenue at Morayfield ?? surely people would want to buy some food from nandos and the other shops in that complex ??

then we have at least a reason to be there

I recently went to a JDMST meet that occurred at the Carseldine Nandos and it was awesome. The organisers approached them and the other surrounding businesses and told them what the go was. I think there was close to 300 cars. I'm a big believer in letting everybody involve, including the authorities, know whats going on. I will see what I can do for a meet and greet at the workshop when it opens. I'm not promising it'll go as planned but I'll see what I can organise.

let me know when you need a hand on the weekends Brad...

im mostly free these days (with some minor exceptions)...

Hey buddy. Not a problem man. Got to catch up again. Do dinner or lunch at ours or yours, which ever suits bud. Saw Nays new ride. Very flash dude. Speak soon.

yeah any time mate... pool is a bit cold now to use but the bbq and deck are always ready...

Went down to harry's diner last night. There were some awesome cars there. Really liked some of the things people had done with there skylines. I do however wish that people would stop bringing commodores and doing burnouts as they leave. The burgers are tasty as down there too. Maybe we should do the meet were looking at on a thursday night at the southbound BP and cruise down to harry's to get a bite to eat.

Hey you Northfolk, As of last night we now have a new executive to steer the club over the next 12 months.

We are planing a major upturn in events ans would like as many of you as possible to join in the fun.

We will be doing 4 major cruises a year and one of these will be in your direction. The club would like to hook up with you guys and then move on to the sunny coast and do the same with the skyline fraternity there.

Our first major cruise will be a western swing taking in the flood hit araeas between brisbane and toowoomba where we hope to hook up with as many liners as we can.

The northern loop will be the next mjor cruise after that.

Let us know if you are interested and keen in becoming more involved with an active club.

Cheers, your new pres.

With a bit of notice I'd like to attend a couple of these, depending when and where they will be held. Sounds very promising.

    • 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"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
