The install looks realy great... but

How do you change the bulbs? have you got pull out pannels etc??

Thanks Dean

Change what bulbs? The rear lights? Well the trunk is made up by sections, so the section covering the rear of the trunk can be removed to display the rear bulb holders.

I dont know what you mean about "pull out pannels etc"? ;)

so where do you carry your spare wheel now !!!! lol

mate the peach coloured skyline beside your car at the show, if ya know him i love to get that colour code of him , its awesome

your set up rocks to , gives me some food for thought......

To ALL,

I didnt do it at the time of our stereo install,however i came up with the idea after and one of the lads in our club did it to his '33 prior to fitting up his install.Got you wondering what i'm talking about?The idea is so simple and not too much harder to achieve-------cut out the spare wheel well in your boot turn it upside down and reweld it back in place.Took a couple of lazy hours to complete on a sunday.You still have ample space for a serious install and can fit a space saver under the car for your long cruises and interstate trips.

SKYLINE (Kym)... :headspin:

I have no room for a spare wheel. I have my spare wheel on a can, so to speak. High preassure foam. :thumbsup:

Ps. About the peach-colored R33, he is known as "SkylineMecken" at the forum of www.skyline.se ;)

Just wondering how you went installing the Pioneer AVH head unit. I got mine installed but in the skyline the oustide bracket/cover/plate doesn't seem to fit very well. I shaved down the sides so now it slips in & the top can clip in but it looks like the bottom is a bit low now too. So only the top seems to clip in.

Just wondering how you went :P

Cheers,

Im sorry I dont have any buildpics from the head-unit install. But all I can say is that it sticks out a bit, I will try to take a good picture of how it looks more in detail.

got a few questions for ya mate first off

what did they use to mold the carpet is it fiber glass or plaster

how did they get the mold out once was dry did they just cut out the few sections and pulled it out cause i thought it would have been screwed down did you have to get the screws out as first and how hard was that

was is hard to cut the sections out with out damaging anything under neath

i ask because im about to atemp this myself very soon and it seems like the best way to do it but i basicaly need to know what was it molded with and how did you get it out of the boot once was dry thanks

Thanks.

The system is built for quality sound (but I did a test with just the trunk subs, measuring inside the coupé of 129 db). Now the back seat has gone and it is playing alot louder, not measured though, but it sounds great!

First wood, then fiberglass and then glue to hold the carpet against the shape of the fiberglass.

The sections were made separately and placed and screwed together, so it is easy to remove for service/update.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
