I must admit I certainly don't mind riding in an evo :P that would be excellent. if you send me a pm, i can get your details etc.

Nick (blitz) and I will be going back in January. Daikoku will be farking cold by then but it sure is worth a look. Last time was a crack up. there was a guy there with a set of turntables and a mixer on a table beside this van that was stuffed full of massive subs etc, then he had a beaten up silvia with jumper cables to give power to the van. it was quite the set-up. and people were just standing around dancing while he was cranking out the happy hardcore tunes. very funny stuff.

In case you needed more of an excuse to visit Daikoku/The Wangan :P

We stumbled across a photoshoot for the Cusco WRX and EVO in the area the freeway racers meet on the Wangan so with the perfect lighting I decided to grab some pics of my own

No space to work on your EVO at home? why not change your headlights on the Wangan freeway?

gday, if any of you boys are heading there soon, i'd love to hook up and see it too. don't live far from tokyo and have a car, aint no skyline but if you dont mind riding in an evo then i can give you a lift.

dude i would definately be interested, come January :-)

a mate and myself are heading over, would be great to catch up with some aussies and see a few local sites as well as the car scene.

PM me if you wouldnt mind showing us around a little and i can grab your details.

i guess this applies to all, not just dodgybrooks :D

the more help the merrier!

for your info if you want cheap accomodation have a look at hostels in yoyoji/harajuku or shijuku area cos it seems reasonable to sleep...

just google it and there are many choices

or otherwise business hotels are not too bad either...

or for the adventurous go to "managa kissa" a 24 hr manga/dvd/internet library!

maaaan i wish i can go with you guys as well....

We stay at a hotel in Chiba that is very reasonably priced also and walking distance to an Up Garage and 5 mins by monorail from some excellent parts shops not to mention 15 mins cab ride from Top Secret :thumbsup:

Sounds like Beer man and I will be seeing a few of you lads over there

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • 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.
