yeah just a normal 1jz not a VVTI

look forward to attending a few events this year,

We were following a silver stock looking R33 4 door with a cannon exhaust this morning going past narangba station,

we were in a white navara with yellow light on the roof so you probably never noticed us

I think it turned down torrens road at petrie

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.

:thumbsup: for sure

Let me know when your open for business. my dash is doing some odd shit at the moment, I either need a auto sparky or a exorcist.

Will do for sure mate. As soon as I know, which I should know next week, i'll let you know.

Cheers guys for the support. Hope I get to work on some/all of your cars, as i would like to make this business the go to place in Morayfield and beyond.

116 any chances of a house visit. I have a 300zx that has no spark and the last guy did the dodgyest job of wiring i have ever seen. PM me if you can with your hourly rate and we can set up a time.

Keep an eye on the events section peeps. Fun times posted up and more to come.

When I had my 33 I used to attend Club cruises but being on the northside we always had to drive a fair way to get in on the fun. The effort to include north liners will not go unnoticed or unappreciated

well I'll kick it off then:

every thursday night at Carsedline central - we have a northside meet. start at 730-8pm till when ever. there are coffee shops/nandos/pizza capers and all are willing to kick in a bit if the meet gets off the ground.

I'll be there at pizza capers this thurs at 730-8pm to start it.

do we have takers?

*never mind...found it..lol will be there i recon.

Edited by boiracer

its on the corner of Beams Road and Gympie Road

heading out bound its on the left

inbound its on the right

it is at the last set of traffic lights before the Bruce Highway starts

if your retarded the 1st exit isnt far up the road so a U turn is easy

Maybe able to swing out and have a looky. Not a bad spot. Plenty of parking up and underground.

As for the Harry's meets, the cops aren't as bad as they were. Been their plenty of times and they are a good bunch of guys. Last time I was their a 32 rocked up with straight through exhaust, 1 headlight working and slamed on it's nuts. A copper a guided him into the park and said nice ride. I kid you not. I spoke to him about there presents there and he basically said they were just to keep things under control and stop the dickheads. You still get some dickheads, but thats most places you go. You'd be very suprised how they turn a blind eye to the cars that rock up their. Another one, this guy had a Merc pretty much on bump stops and the copper goes, didn't you have another 1 the other week or was that someone else. Couldn't belive what I heard.

The coppers down there from what I hear are pretty good, However they did turn up just after we left because people forgot how to use a sidewalk and also how to exit a driveway without leaving rubber flavored momento's behind

    • 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.
