handbrake needs to be earthed,, (negative)

acc would be ur accesories (keeps ur headunit, air con etc etc on while timer is on,,, thats my guess),, you will probably only need to connect ONE of the ign wires,, can't remember which one,, try one and if the car turns off with TT on,, then try the other one.

if you remove the covers from your steering column (behind steering wheel), you should have a 3 pin plug there (red, blue, green i think). Thats all you need + earth to hook it up

Even if you don't hook up the handbrake wire, the TT will still work (or just earth it to the same place you earth the TT ).

hope that all makes sense?

any more questions, just ask,,

Hi I have done a pic of the timer the way I have it setup out side the

car to see if it works and I can not get it to power the light when I turn the swich off ass I think it should

for how long the timer is set for all so when I turn the swich on the turbo timer powers up.

THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP.

from memory,, mine didn't even have the handbrake one hooked up, and it still worked ( i used to have the same timer),,,

only thing was,, turbo timer could be on/off regardless of handbrake being up or down..

are you sure you need 12V + ?

u will have to remove the center console to see where your handbrake wires run to. (once again,, i think it should be the earth not +12V ,, but i could be wrong)

If this doesn't help you,,, there is something wrong with ya,,

lol

j/k

http://www.mkiv.com/techarticles/hks_turbo...turbo_timer.htm

so looks like , if ur timer see's +12V (handbrake disengaged/down) it will turn Off,, and when it sees 0V (Handbrake engaged/up) it will turn on,, (so that would explain why my timer used to stay on regardless of handbrake being up or down,, coz the wire was never connected and always saw 0V)

c ya

    • 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 ? 馃
    • 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.
