Fuzz your car looked insane soo much better in person than in pics all i wanna know is where did you get the kit from its so HOT and did the wing come with it?

Kit is a Charge Speed kit ... wing is a Dolphin wing. The wing l imported in, but the kit came on the car. I wanted the bigger Dolphin wing for the full "look at me" ... but there were none on yahoo jp :P

But damn l'm impressed with how well jap kits fit, pretty much perfect. Somthing many out here could take heed of.

dont know of anyone on here with a white series one

one of the guys i work with mentioned that he plays golf with a guy that drives a stock series one stagea. I will give him the website address for here and tell him to pass it on to his golf buddy. who knows could be his i will ask next time i see him where he works

spotted a silver S1, in morayfield, mah town. Was out with the normal thursday night scene, sat in a carpark for a while and he cruised through and straight past me!

Pulled him up, names Jack, had a bit of a chat. Took a few photos. First time ive actually spoken to someone with a stagea, and the first time ive seen one up close since i got mine a year ago! Had his for a month.

did you get pics of his car?

care to share?

aww yeah i guess i could throw some on. Its very stock, cept for the 17" wheels. Was pretty dirty too... But still, i was excited as hell chasing to catch up to him. Felt like a lil kid.

wow crappy photos... on my phone, at night. Nice guy to talk to, very happy with his purchase, and the attention it brings.

still havent painted your kit yet rob?

are you going to bother or is all the $$$ going to buy jays car?

Its all going to pay for Jays car, dude... Going to be worth it though, most definitely. People have been saying i should leave it white, and held on with the racing tape that is is, to keep that "just drifted" look about it, but no.

After i get jays car, like, a YEAR after, im hoping to splash a bit of paint on it.

my wife saw you heading south on the Kwinana freeway this afternoon she was stuck in the left hand lane and you passed her in the right hand lane she changed lanes to try and catch you to get a phtoto of your car on her phone to show me but she couldnt catch you she said you were "moving"

she was in our other car a ford territory so you didnt miss spotting a stagea.

it was between the roe highway and berrigan drive exit

ooo I was spotted :( but...ah oops yeah I tend to do about 10/15 over down there lol and sometimes I give it a good boot lol

I noticed three territory's..a grey a green and a blue one today down the freeway... what colour is yours?

green one is mine :(

yeah she spotted the car and knew it was a series 1 and was black and your number plates are pretty easy to recognise as soon as she told me that i knew it was yours.

yeah i do a bit over down there too but sometimes you get stuck behind idiots down there especially with the roadworks and random trucks pulling out from the centre rail works

    • 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"
