hi guys,

just thought i would bring it to everyone's attention.

i bought some white / blue headlights and momo steering wheel and boss kit, they ordered the boss kit and guess what it doesnt fit, after pulling everything apart i found that out funny thing is they told me it was the right one. when i rang em up cracking the shits they told me there is two different types of boss kits for the gtst r32, now i have to goto springvale tomorrow, sunday, and get the other type, not knowing weather this will fit yet they say it will, headlights dont fit so have to wait swap them too.

arghhhh so f'n annoyed, anyone shopping here make sure you bring someone with you who knows exactly what they need specs and all, do not trust what they say.

putting my EL Dials on now if these dont fit or work im gonna go banana's :no:

they have alot of good things there but the customer service is pox bad

they reckon there is two different boss kits for the r32 gtst.

when i took everything out there was two white parts connected to the car and those parts needed to slide through the boss kit, i think its for the horn or something, anyhow they reckon the other one is there, im still a bit sus, i hope there not giving me a god damn boss kit just for the momo steering wheel, dont even know why they would make two seperate types in a r32 gtst.

seems weird to me......anybody changed the steering wheel on there gtst, im sure 90% of people on here have done it.

just finished putting the cluster in, fits ok, gonna hook it up tomorrow.

definately not buying anything electrical from them again, 2 out of 3 products didnt fit.

Theres a thread somewhere on www.nissansilvia.com on these guys, not very good! Seems like the base is Springvale and they only have muppets at the Footscray store.

Ive got my dials through them and a mate got some indicators, but cos we didnt have a problem with the product we didnt have a problem with them.

Keep us updated on how u go!!

hey, el gauges went on fine, working fine.

they reckon the 2nd boss kit which is suitable for my car will be in on monday or i can drive to springvale today.

i still cant believe the lights didnt even fit, the stupid f could of at least given me the proper ones.

checked nissansilvia, cyber century has some pretty bad reputation, seems like they only good for small bits n pieces, now im contemplating weather to get my altezza lights from them, $380 they were and i found em to be pretty cheap.

by the way, i need vents for the front of the dash, my two came broken off when i got the car, anyone know where to get some?

UPI/Just Jap in Moorabin: 9555-3611

Or even Nissan themselves, id say your closest would be Footscray? :O

Some things are actually cheaper and easier attainable from Nissan.

Tracid, has your car ever had TRD front guards? Saw a Supra exactly like the one in your sig in Footscray about 3 months ago.

David,

My car came with the wrong boss kit. As a result my hicas warning light comes and goes and the white plastic plate that is meant to spin with the wheel has ceased/gets stuck and subsequently broke the wire to engagae the horn.

Btw, did you buy your car in the last 12 months or so, or have you had it for 2 yearsor so?

bought ma car about 12 months ago yeah, just got back from springy cyber century, they gave me the wrong kit, i had to get the r33 boss kit for some reason.

it fits perfectly now however the lights i got dont fit and they dont have any that do, they reckon for my car its hard to find the proper ones.

im gonna be extra cautious when buying things from shops now, cant take what the shop pplz say.

the white plastic plate is what the other boss kit didnt have slots for.

thanks for the info guys.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      From there it is trickier. Ecutek seems to be one of those closed ecosystems where everyone password protects their tunes which means I either choose a tuner and can't change from them and can't make any changes myself for any reason, or I have to buy the tuning software (about $4k) and then get someone to tune from scratch (which is not simple with all the multi dimensional tables these days). Once you buy about 300 "flash points" per ECU you can get it tuned and add their "RaceROM" function which hacks extra functionality like launch control onto the ECU, and also makes extra data available for logging over CAN Not sure what I'll do there yet; I'm tempted to use one of the overseas shops that does billions of remote tunes of the platform instead of starting from scratch locally, a lot can be done online these days.

      Can I log IAT eh? Well, can now So next thing was looking at data logging. Not straight forward because none of the motorsport displays have cracked the nissan/inifinti CAN and ECU based displays don't do g logging, lap timing, predictive laps etc.  So, I bought an Ecutek dongle from Tunehouse (Oz distributor). Even without a tune onboard that allows display and logging of about 50 parameters via Android (and presumably iOS) app. Approx 600 for the bluetooth + Usb version That gives me (pretty ugly but) functional dash display on Android And logging of these parameters I'll play around a bit over the break, but at least now I can make sure I have oil pressure when I get to some track testing.

      R33 headlight relay conversion?

      By Duncan · Posted

      I don't know what globes/headlight connector they run, but I'd be looking for a female adapter to plug into the existing headlight on one side. Something like this https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/256017245989 Then I'd use a pair of single input, double output relays (one for low, one for high), mount them in a spare space in the fuse box if you want to to look more original (and be easier to maintain). Then 2 new power sources from the main stud in the fuse box via a fuse to each relay. Low from the headlight adapter pin triggers low relay and high from the high headlight adapter pin triggers high and low. Earth the relays and new headlight sockets and off you go. Because it triggers off the original headlight all of the dipping/hi on/high flash all still works
