wow... I think I will vacate this topic.

Just relax a little. Its not like Im saying v8 supercars are slow. Shit they are fast, instant power, sound amazing.

Thanks for that pic zebra. Wicked :). hey fan boys can dream.

No you can proceed to bite my head off mad082.

Its nothing against you personally,

But its rather annoying when the fanboi's get together and with no real knowledge on the subject come on and say their favorite car, whether it is a GTR/EVO/Commodore etc, that it would be faster than some other car if they change a million things.

GTR fanboi's seem to be the worst there is, they still live in 1992 and think the supercars are slow, despite the fact that the Supercars were quicker from 1994, yep, and in their 1st year on running (93) they were only about .5sec slower than the Gp.A R32 GTRs quickest time.

This is true. Don't worry I stated that it would be close. Never said their slow :). I know how quick they are.

It's just a sensitive subject I suppose. All I really want is to see them race, even though they are in a different category, can you just imagine the race? No matter of oh this is going to be 2 sec slower than that, and rah rah, I like my Motorsport and would be great to watch. Just like the lemans races, or the gp

hahah Well good news for you, R35 GT3 set to run the the GT championship in Aus next year, so keep an eye out for the GT races on One HD

See here for other GT news

this. some of them even say "if the GTR was allowed to race in the v8 supercars it would flog them all like it did in the group A days". sorry boys, it wouldn't, because for it to run it would have to be running a 5.0L v8, and only rwd. so like the current V8 supercars, it would just be a generic racecar with a GTR shell (which would have to be cut and shut to make it the right size). the GTR isn't smashing all the other cars out of the water in the JGTCC classes because in those it's not running AWD and is running a v8, like all the other cars.

LOL, yeah those sierra's were the bomb. they also had different regulations due to being in a lower category. for example they had to run skinnier tyres. they could only run a 9" wide tyre, while the GTR could run 11" wide tyres. power output i don't think the sierra was too much lower than the GTR. they were putting out about 650hp. had they been able to run 11" wide tyres i think the GTR probably wouldn't have been as dominant.

    • 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.
    • 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.
