^^ HAHA!! Yeah I do that and friends have this :thumbsup: look on their face.

Ok haven't read all the post but heres mine.

You Know You Drive A Skyline When .. ... .

... Every commodore / ford of all types wanna drag you at the lights.

... BMW 318i's and Mini Copper S all wanna race after you. (I was like WTF)

... Sit and wait till the turbo timer has finished. (Now I'm really pushing it)

... On a hot day, pop the bonnet and let the heat vent out and cool down for like 5-6 mins

... You actualy find out how so many girls love you car. :)

You remind EVERYONE that a GTR won Bathurst and was then banned.

You see a VL Commodore and think 'what a waste of a great block'

You secretly envy how much power the 2JZ-GTE engine can make with stock internals..........but RB's are still just better!

Fuel prices make you cry.

... you instantly go to the back of the car park so no one parks next to you

... you get a sore neck on long drives from the stupidly stiff suspension

... you get angry looks from old people even if you are doing 20km under the speed limit

... when after turning off the ignition, you jump out and run to the rear of the car just so you can hear the exhaust purr for a few seconds before the turbo timer cuts off your baby :D

... when every other car on the road is in the way of your "racing line" :P

when your v8 friends think that "drifting" is rev-dumping first gear from stationary position and kicking the car out sideways a couple times till bodyroll takes over.

when you see a young honda driver with rims and a shopping list, and thinking what a shame...

^^When you v8 friend says his VT Commodore SS is 197kw stock at the flywheel and then add on a high flow air intake and an exhaust system and it becomes 197kw at the rear wheels. :blink: Sounds abit wank!

And he dribbles shit on like a virgin p plater on how good his SS is and ya sit and in ya head you are laughing ya ass off.

You know when you drive a Skyline when HSV fan bois say "drift racing is a novelty."

I find it quite a novelty trying to race 4 door taxi.

i think there must be a few of us out there lol
Iv got 3 drift cars now lol 2 electric and 1 petrol

I have one too, Its identical to my DR30 except for the rims, if anyone knows where to get dished RS-8 Watanabe R/C wheels let me know

when..... people/p platers drive up your ass when they see a personalised number plate and try to drag you. they even try n cut through traffic just to get next to you. and they nearly cause accidents doing it. lolll

u know u drive a skyline when u have 6 drunk blonde aussie chicks in ur car lol

hehehehe :banana:

    • Ok glad you clarified on the frenchy’s options , I was worried about if my oem hoses would fit the new compressor or not if I just bought the bracket/compressor kit ,  didn’t realize they also sold a larger full conversion kit. Hmm may just go oem in that case then to make it easy only because I plan to sell this car to upgrade to a 32 GTR or 34 GTT.
    • Right, here's a video of the basic operation at least.  This is what you can expect day to day when you turn the car on and it boots from standby.  The only thing from a media point of view I haven't gotten working is for it to autoplay plexamp when it turns on from standby (it works from cold boot) but that's more of a plexamp problem as it will autoplay other music players.  Also attached is my one stray cable.  It's part of the screen's wiring adapters but there's just nowhere for it to go in my car.  I've just now done a bit of research and found a matching port on a 2010-2014 head unit with BOSE.  Mine has no BOSE so that's that case pretty much closed I think.  Plugging in the Infiniti AC panel basically did nothing for me, so that's a dead end as well.  Next port of call is to mess with this CANBUS module and see what I can find from it.  I found this resource containing the DBC files for a 2010+ G37 : https://github.com/icecube45/Dash_InfinitiG37/blob/master/InfinitiG37.dbc I'll now have something to go from when I try to extract my CANBUS data so I can see if the HVAC Mode, Fan Speed, Temperature, etc. match and also the gear shifter position.  It's a pretty big assumption that it's just mismatched CAN signals but considering all the devices in the CAN network are talking to each other (AC can be fully adjusted just with no info on screen) it might be a safe one.  I will report back WhatsApp Video 2025-02-26 at 12.49.10.mp4
    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
