I bought it off this guy in Melbourne (Import Revolution Pty Ltd), it was a straight plug-in to the original antenna socket. I picked it up in person and paid $40 only, he is a good guy and has a V36, was chatting to him for ages about my car. He's located in Bayswater, but his eBay shop ships Aus-wide.

It's +14Mhz so when you see FM 86.3, it's actually FM 100.3. Pretty easy to install, I've taken the dash of the V36 apart a few times now so I can nearly do it with my eyes closed now.

Hi Steve,

I purchased a bandwidth expander over 12 months ago but have still not fitted it. I got as far as removing the glovebox and thought it just looked to risky to continue! any tips for what needs to be removed or fastest way to get the expander installed?

Why you going through the glove box? I took the center dash apart, which requires around 10 screws and taking off the gear stick to do. It should only take around an hour the first time you do it.

Just follow this guide to get the dash off to get access to the back of the unit, IIRC the radio antenna is located on the bottom right (drivers side) of the radio once you pull it out. I hope the one you have is a straight plug-in?

Thanks Steve,

Nice job Newan, thanks.

    • They are, a good friend of mine bought one to replace his blow factory turbo, running a Toshi Tune reflash. Just use their supplied water/oil lines and you're good to go. At the time, they were like $900 delivered.
    • This is an option for 100% bolt on, the GCG high flow -  https://gcg.com.au/turbo-charger-upgrade-skyline-gtst-2iu-xtrgts-s1.html Also, I'm pretty sure hypergear does a high flow that is 100% bolt on, it just doesn't make as much power as their bigger high flows.  Even if you get a hypergear turbo that requires you to chance the intake piping, it is a really simple modification. It can be as simple as a piece of silicon hose and you pop a filter on the end. It doesn't have to be some crazy pie cut titanium work of art intake pipe.  If you have the ability to swap the turbo yourself, you would be able to sort the intake piping out. 
    • Just as a thought, if it's in neutral, thats your drive line disconnect, not the clutch. Clutch slip at the dyno with pedal fully out, is actually adding a second disconnect. So it's not a clutch issue if you're in neutral. Just a bit of friction dragging the output around while in the air.
    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD?
