Haha decals are still good apart from the ones on the panels that need replacing, i will get those bits redone in memory of paul walker ;)

so you are going to wrap them around a tree?

come on.. really, what happened to making your car unique and yours, i know its hard to make a skyline unique lol but its easier than making a commodore or falcon unique. i guess if you want your car to look like that good for you but there is way better things to do than that....

Its not for me, its for ease of sale, theres always going to be one of those p platers around that are gonna see the car and want it because they think it looks cool and makes em cool because they have a car from 2 fast 2 furious

I already get heaps of photos in it and everyone complimenting the car

Believe what you want to believe, i carry on, im happy with the attention i get i dont need to worry about what the haters like you think.

A real motor enthusiast respects each vehicle as is, and does not stick to one but experiences as many vehicles as possible. Modding is completely up to the owners, no need to hate because it doesnt suit your taste, do as you wish with yours, i couldnt give two f**ks if you wanna get pink racing stripes cool.

Thats just as bad man, what are we encouraging those p platers to just have someone elses car that just happens to look like cop bait? skylines dont need that kind of attention they have a bad enough reputation anyway. i have had photos taken and got compliments about mine but its not cos i copied a movie, but your right you can do what ever you want.... by the way i dont think there are many Fast and the Furious fans that are car enthusiasts lol

so when you sell the car to said P Plater. I hope you tell them the full history of the car and the accident damage. Or are you just going to be a dodgey f**k........................ "Never had an accident"

I'm sure people will recognise this car as soon as it hits carsales etc. All evidence is in this thread :whistling:

relax max... it was a F'n'F quote...

FWIW, the decals will most probably lower resale value as you are cutting out 98% of your market (people with taste)

lmao ,came in expecting to see tryhard putting on FNF decals possibly with the additions of neons onto a 4x4 height non turbo skyline with disgusting rims. Saw outcome of car after decals are put on. Saw condition of car in peices. Left satisfied.

Well sorry but not all of us are rich and can adford to buy and then modify a R34 how we want, if money was no option it would look nothing like that.

umm....it costs you money to put the decals on.... its cheaper just leaving them off and doing a performance mod with that cash. or spend it on ya missus :)

whatever, to each their own, just wish you did it to a holden or something.

    • 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"
