nah i think the prob is the rubber stops havent been replaced - once i get those done and the wheels are aligned and balanced if that doesnt fix it i will look into what else can be done. I acknowledge that lowered cars are bouncy but its nothing like when i first got the car - if i can get it back to that standard a happy girl i will be ;)

mornin adrian..

the ITC we're talking about is the Apexi one.. the Apexi AFC does the same thing - looks way funky but I can't find anywhere to mount them for the flashy light effect.. hehe...

ride is gooooood ;)

is it pretty much standard - i aint hightening it anymore than a few mm's. The stops do make a difference - just where to get them from - i thought cred would of thought to replace them when they did my suspension!

I put mine in the glove box under my SAFC.... get brett to whack it there aswell perhaps? the further away frorm drunk peoples fingers the BETTER!!

niz my mate had them rubber stops in his subaru and they are prone to popping out, coz one of his did so one side of his car was lower then the other it looked wierd! i had a good laugh though! they called spring stoppers aren't they?

cool cool cam ITC sounds boss and i presume when you say AFC you talking bout the old skool 5 knob apexi one?

adrian ;)

yeah they are prone to breaking and wear n tear etc - but i swear they make a difference - well i guess i'll know for shore once i get new ones in to see if that fixes part of the problem. I think that may be the reason my cars front end has decided to sink a bit too ;) I could be way off the mark - but these are my theories.

yeah spring stoppers to help heaps! i was just mentioning how they do pop out maybe your front ones have popped out? if you have some in there already!

yall reckon i should ditch my apexi n1 front pipe and get a 3 inch dump/front made up or just get a dump made up and bolt onto front pipe?

adrian ;)

25GTT - I have a large fist that says "drunk ppl no play with stuff in car" ;)

Adrian - yea.. the old skool ones.. work ok.. the car came with them so they'll do till I decide to upgrade the whole computer..

Niz - pity c-red didn't think to do that, or tell u they may need to do that.. some things don't change maybe? found out mine are std coils and shocks.. my coils have been heated so have thought about changing them, wheels world quoted round $500 for a set of whitelines that would sit the car about 30mm lower.. but with the shocks being nearly 100,000km old i think i'll just hang out and get some cool coilovers.. :D

yeah i wouldve liked coilovers - out of price range tho.

I was actually told by another mechanic exactly what had to be done to my car in great detail - including replacing the stops and stuff. just annoys me these things dont picked up - i mean you've got the car there u might as well do this - makes you extra money while your at it. I shouldve asked but the thing is all the other suspension shops were going to do it as a package so i just thought cred were going to do it as well - cant complain about the price but i wouldve preferred to pay a bit more and get the whole lot done and outta the way. but anyway nbot everything goes to plan.

he was the one i talked to in the first place - its my fault i shouldve asked i know not everyones a mind reader but its just the suspension places did as part of package assumed he would too - its good when i worked in welshpool and it was close to drop my car in but now its too far away to keep going back and getting stuff done - prefer somewherein osb park.

Adrian - why not just get a dump pipe to suit the apexi one? be alot cheaper right?

coilovers are cool.. ;) adjustable stuff is fun... but yea - probably wouldn't waste the $$ on it...

Niz - maybe u should chase jash about it.. he's been pushing to get customers - this could be a good test?

    • 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.
