Don't you hate that! Everytime ya think the cars fixed something else brakes. Trust me, the Corolla wrecked the starter motor. While at the sparkies they inform me the alternator is also had it. Quoted $360 to fix it so I said forget it I will pick it up. Dad ended up getting someone to fix it for me WAAAYYY cheaper. The battery was also stuffed, the carby was so had it that it wouldn't idle (now it has fuel injection) and the brake lights occasionally get stuck on so you have to jump start it next time you drive it. Had a lot of fun with it in the 6 months I have owned it hay!

I have to pay it off or something first. Techinally I do own it (in my name) but Mum and Dad paid for it so to do the right thing, I have still got it, but they wonder why I wanna drive the VN more?:crazy: I am saving for a new R31 at this point though.

I am part time Niz, downfall, I earn part time wages.

Heyas All... Good morning!

Well today is my last day here at work so I might not be on the forums for a bit, maybe 2 weeks or so till I get a nice internet connection.... If anybody needs anything important please gimme a call on the mobile or call me at Osbourne Park Zest Health Club :-)

Take care and hopefully will be chatting with you guys really soon :-)

I owe Mum like $2500 for my car and have paid of, ohh, let me see, about $60! I think I might save up instead of pay that off, once I have saved up enough then I will buy a new one and give them the Rolla back. More enthusiastic that way. I am thinking of buying a really neat un'licenced R31 (if I can find one) and do it up and licence it myself. Might work out cheaper that way.

Hi 25GTT

    • 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.
