i just bought my first skyline to but not my first car. I live in NSW and am on my Green Ps but atm the car is unregister so there is no temptation to drive it and lose my licence. i dont think you will get exampt. how long do you have to go till you get your open licence?

  • Like 1

i know people may think that and im not going to try change it i will accept it and leave it as that, yes i may drive silly at times, but the risk of losing my exemption or licence that i need both for work for is to much so i do the right thing pretty much all the time.

im on my reds and go to first year of greens in September, so a long way yet :/

its 125kw/t

all the rules im talking about is in queensland.

you won't get the exemption because they won't accept a dyno read out as the power figure

anyone could go and get their car detuned to a low dyno read out to send in with their exemption application and then head back down to the tuners the next day and get it tune back to 200rwkw.... have you considered this ?

as above, i have my doubts about you getting an exemption. let us know how it goes though.

many have tried to thwart the system, none have. I spent quite a lot of time back in my early P plate period trying to find a loophole in the system.

"no vehicles over 6 cylinders" - "but sir! rotaries don't have cylinders"

you just have to deal

You won't be granted an exemption, so I have no idea why you keep thinking you will.

Thanks :)

Is there any other difference with the 94?

One of my grandfathers coworkers is a skyline nut. And says that a good mod for me to do would be upgrade the front hubs to r33 gtr hubs (hubs rotors and everything) he said the reason for this is to go from 4 pot calipers to 6 pot

Would this be worth the effort?

No silly driving just my grandparents are all anal about saftey in cars like breaks and tyers

They said they wanted me having bigger breaks and slotted and drilled on the car I said I will just get slotted rotors and new pads to fit what's on there.

Thanks :)

Skyline nut that thinks the factory Brembo's are 6-pot, good stuff :laugh:

    • 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"
