No haven't received them yet. I was in contact with customs this morning and he was suppose to get back to me this arvo. I will contact him in the morning and update at lunch. If I get them tomorrow you should get it by sat.. We will see tomorrow.. All the paper work is done I just have to receive them..

Just got off the phone with customs. He is organising a courier to deliver the kits for tomorrow morning or arfternoon.. If I get it in the morning I will send the kits tomorrow. If afternoon the day afer... Finally comming to an end. :O

i just looked at your gb#1 web page, the kits are in sydney. im in adelaide. your in brisbane. wouldnt it cost less to get customs to send one straight to me instead of up to you then down again to me or is it a thing of the customs fella's not being able to comprehend this.

just a thought to speed things up and save money.

cheers

Unfortunately I cant do that. As basically I'm the distributor. Customs wont drop ship parcels for me..

Getting the cargo sent up to brisbane does not cost me any more than the ship landing in brisbane. The only thing it does cost is time. Really the cargo should have been sent to brisbane not Sydney. But they though this would be the fastest way, sent to sydney first then to brisbane. They are gonna be lucky little kits seeing all of australia before they make skyline car go fast ;)

received kit. very happy. looks chromed not polished, also only has four joiners so i take it i have to use the stock one as the fith. but again, very happy.

wont have a chance to install it untill the 29th but ill post up any probs ideas i have when i do.

cheers

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
