My Thoughts are....

Its about damn fkn time!!!

im so sick of the current ICE models atm with laggy ass screens and touchscreens that dont work properly or even some decent gui layouts.

The sizing is really close to normal double dinn standard .

Only a matter of time before adapters get made for mass markets.

Im keen to fit one in the GTT.

Thoughts?

I like it.

Chris, could you set something up.

-audio express

I already have generic fibreglass mounts available , carbon is a well

Ipad full size fit in gtt fine

Ipad minis even easier

with factory look

where the hell would u fit the normal ipads on the gtt? i think itll be abit overkill D:

if someone makes ipad mini mounts for the gtt , ill buy it... for sure

The ipad 2 fits just fine in stock radio location with customization ( perm mount) you could make it slide out near drivers legs without drama , not graceful but doable, I have a spare dash and have tested it already

The mini would pop right in with minimal fuss

Dont have a mini or i would build one

The mini would fit in popup dash as well

Edited by Carbon 34

wonder if its possible to grab a ipad mini model version , like ones of those fakie mobile phones

I know doug and the other guys in the video , they will have generic ipad mini pans for sale and would send one down if anyone wants one?

ipad mini isnt on my radar since ipad fits in gtt and has a bigger screen ,

its not a big deal to mold one , just takes time and a mini to use?? it would fit older skylines ??

for those wondering the ipad fits in the factory radio hole behind the factory dash contour and butts up to the ac controls fine

Some shifter surround mods and remolding but in my case I cut out the ashtray and lighter and ripped apart and recast 3 gauges flush fit in the spot instead

In carbon lol

No need for smoking items

tbh, i think having the original ipad would be a lil bit overkill n i'd prefer to keep the stock smokers try n kit just to keep it looking original n flush.

just my opinion , retina display would be madness tho =D

got any pics of ur finished product with the normal ipad mould?

These guys did a mini within 2 hrs of release!

The sell all the parts you need to DIY also, incl the moulded pans etc.

I dont have the ipad dash in my car its mocked up on the bench , i have thought about popping it in my car but my current setup rebuild plans would need tweeking , it would be a downgrade on some cases

I do have some mock up photos on my laptop i think showing the process to refinish the dash etc

lots of build log photos etc just havent had time to publish it

you could keep the ashtray etc just i'm a serious hater of smokers lol

Bought a smoke free car from japan which is a miracle to find lol

Sure chris I'll dig up some photos of fitment on the bench think the car test fit ones are still on the camera

The parts are all over ebay same ones as the phone uses ???

Those guys had it in 2 hrs not a big deal if you know what your doing its as fast as the resin dries speed wise? but i would prefer to think it out and make it perfect not a wart on the dash

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
