Hey Guys,

Short notice I know.

I'm heading out to the track on Sunday if you want to come join me.

Helmets and long sleeves\pants required.

No CAMS licence required.

I'm getting there at around 9:30 am.

Hey mate I'd be interested if I can get the car ready in time. Just wondering though, do you need to be part of a club and what's the cost for the day?

Also as far as the car goes what do you need? Is it just secondary bonnet restraint, fire extinguisher (size?) and blue battery triangle or do you not need that stuff for a practice day?

because it's just private practice you don't actually need anything although I strongly recommend a 2ndary bonnet restraint and a fire extinguisher (900g+)

Entry is $130 if you're not in a club or $80 if you are. You can join HSCC on the day.

Well when I said "decent" I was just planning on putting some good street tyres on the standard R32 16's as they are pretty worn, but I have been contemplating getting a second set of wheels at some stage, I did look at Veeto's wheels but wasn't sure how well they'd fit on an R32, also I don't know how serious I'm going to get with tracking the car.

I reckon they'd go nice on your ride, if you want a test fit come round on the weekend and I'll throw them on for you :)

edit, if you want some new rubber, PM Dave.TAS he gets really good prices, he supplies me with all my Federals I use for drifting.

My rear streets are... possibly legal. It will be fiiiiine.

For serious, if you're not planning on smashing any records and you take it easy any set of streets is fine :) you will just have to rest them every now and again

Yeah turned out to be a really good day for it, dried out really early and the track warmed up nicely :) Car felt good with new a1RM pads, exhaust, and slightly higher boost levels.

Had the first small issue with my car from track use, blew half the exhaust manifold gasket out toward the end of the day. For 5 track days I'm pretty happy with such a small problem, same set of tyres as when I started too ;)

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • 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.
