On a 32 skyline (not sure bout 33) there are two little buttons for the radio on the left side of the instrument binocle. On for am/fm i think the other i can't think of right now.

Anyways....Since nobody ever keeps the standard head unit (for long), and I can't easily get rid of them I want to use these buttons for something.

Anyone done this before and what did you use them for? Or just any suggestions in general?

Maybe a kill switch, that would be pretty stealth. Hide a kill switch in plain sight. :)

hehehe i had similar thoughts on it...

i was going to see if it was possible to set it up so that it could skip tracks/folders for my MP3 player etc

altho i like ur suggestion of a kill switch.

Hey, I read somewhere that there's a new product which can interface between a head unit and most factory buttons such as those on many car's steering wheels... Maybe you could hook it up to still operate your aftermarket deck, who knows?

Or maybe the kill-switch, or how about a scramble button for an electronic boost controller...

I've pulled apart the console, and I've wired it up so I can control the rear SKYLINE light (I haven't put the thing in yet) on the back of the car with one. The other well I've put the wire there, dunno what I'll use it for yet. Maybe I'll rewire my alarm to it or sumfin.

My remotes mounted on the steering wheel so I have bugger all use for it.

Then you realize that was really the Nitrous button and all that "boom" was your crank snapping into two peices.

no the boom was the bond style rockets!

oh duh!

lol wire em up to the passenger eject sping latch, that way if someone in the passenger seat gets smart, eject em...

used to scare the shit outta ppl with the aircraft style launch button in my 180 with the words "passenger eject" on it, they'd look at the switch, then look at the roof (hardtop) and then look at me in confusion.

Ahh those were the days

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
