What about sugarloaf and a BBQ??? Just throwing it out there, take it or leave it!!!

Sounds like a good idea mate, but maybe not as a first one, as I believe it may be hard to get the exact numbers for food etc.. Probably easiest to just to the pub, people can eat, or get a beer or whatever they want.

If there is enough interest, we can probably go up sugarloaf after the meet I guess?...

Ok Sunday July 8 is looking like the favored date so far.

Yeah as Anthony said, the first one will just be an informal meet'n'greet sort of thing so we know who each other are etc...... But the sugarloaf idea is definitely one to take on board for a later date!!

I guess the plan would be to have regular catch ups eventually with say a monthly Cruise which we have already had a few suggestions for which is all sounding pretty damn good!

July 8 is good for me, ill lock it in for now... Car or no car i will be there BUT if its not done by then i will have serious issues LOL

Going for a run with jarrad this afternoon at around 4.30-5 to take advantage of the nice weather.

if your keen to come along let me know and can arrange a meet spot probably in broadmedow..

No can-do for me today mate, i have to go do a timing belt etc on a mates car :yucky:

Would have been keen but domestic duties call

Not cool at all :/

I got held up doing a freebie on a mates car, turns out its the worst timing belt ever due to Loctite and stripped bolts etc.... Dodgy mechanics!!! :(

On a positive note guys, the car IS coming... JEM tell me that Adam is working in it today and that if everything goes smoothly ill drive it home next Friday.... :D

haha i thought that after posting and re reading.

    • 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.
