The route from newy is approx 300kms and will take 4-5hrs ha...

Going around gresford, dungog and further north

Just saw this now so probably to late to get a lift in Big Bird

Well back from the mechanics, and the verdict is as he thought, turbo leaking oil into the intake, messing up the AFM, causing it to missfire dump fuel and foul the plugs, fix is replace turbos.

And also with the stock GTR air box and the side pipe, it is used for induction but its blocked off standard, it has 2 pressue clips and the restrictor pops out to give u massive air flow, i can hear my car sucking in more air and its fluttering also now that i have taken it out pics are attached.

T4NK, I have a contact in Japan that you can use to get your parts....

You can get stuff a lottttt cheaper than from JustJap....

For example: I got my Tomei N2 Oversize Oil Pan for $350 incl.postage and JustJap sells them for $800ish.

All the stuff Ive bought has worked out cheaper than Nengun + RHDJapan as well

That's a lot of coin for turbos

Have you looked at getting yours redone?

Might be cheaper with the same result but as the saying goes costs nothing to ask.

Don't sell the car man unless it's to Jarred when he has the coin :)

For once Benji might be onto something here.

First very usefull post I've seen ever from you

Price on some 550cc or higher injectors for a 25NEO please

Oh and have you finished the drive yet Ant?

Hope the car is still in one piece

Was up around Gresford way last week and sections of the road are utter crap.

Apart from the bit between Gresford and Vacy that has a few rises and dips in the road. The truck gets very light in the front end at 100 through that section.

If you went just a bit faster in a car I reckon you could get air easy enough

Found these, talking to the guy atm about shaft play ect, getting some pics and a video of the shafts sent to me since they are in melb, if they are good ill take them i think, 10,000km or less on them

If you can get a price for me posted that would be great to. thanks :yes:

haha martin 34s are way to over priced for me but thanks for looking out for me bruv

the run was pretty shit but we got good pics of the bird and saw some great scenery, wooten way is our cruise after the next one.

what would you buy tank?? never know it could be great after the turbo and be worth keeping

not sure m8, was considering a TRD chaser or even just a GTT 34 something thats not as expensive to fix when i brake it, cauz i know im going to brake it lmfao

Yea sorry Martin were abit late, we were on the road by 1030...

Roads were very rough, therefore very slow! There was one good section from dungog over to buckets way, but apart from that, wooten was great! Smooth and very wide, and 100kph speed limit and no other cars on the road.

Will hit it up for the next run.

    • 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.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
