nice bob - your gtr is a celebrity :)

thanks for sharing!

i cant read your image so i'll buy a copy for myself

Thanks Marco

I naturally can't post up readable text as the magazine would have my guts for garters but it is a good read and I thoroughly recommend the mag for the article.

Bob.

Great read!

How much of the article did you write Bob?

None..... but I did spend an hour on the phone to Cliff Chambers who wrote the article.

The only part that is factually incorrect is the stereo system. I told him it was a premium Clarion unit with a Blaupunkt Autoflex aerial but he called it a Blaupunkt system.

No big deal ...............

Bob.

The only thing I picked up was when he used the reference 'Sequential Turbo'. GTR's run 'Parallel twin-turbo'.

Still great read.

And your car Bob would have to be one of the most authentic GTR's around. Probably only second to a few oddballs in Japan who bought and stored them only :)Looked great on those pages.

Yes it is! ^ ^ ^ That's an awful faux pas (- an insult to Clarion)! :P

Nice to see your car doesn't have a mistake - even if they can't quite get all the details right Bob!

Thanks for the kind words.......

I still have a few cosmetic blemishes I'd like to correct. Hopefully these will be done by the end of the year.

Cheers,

Bob.

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
