Yeh thats the one, except now i have 17s on it and its about 2 inches or more lower.

scrapes like shit everywhere

what have i done to it lately? well i had a commodore up my ass a few weeks back they thought id be a good spit roast, my car thought otherwise. still waiting on a fix (about $6000 worth of fix)

i am probably going to be selling these wheels soon if your interested (the 17s)

to fund some new projects

17s hey.Not the wheels in your avatar? I'm not a khrome fan.... Maybe, give us a PM when you know, No promises though.

I might keep saving my pennies for a set of 16x8.5" Buffy club P1's and some semi slicks, and a red top rb20det (yeh silver's better, but it just seems more "right" fitting the red top in the 31).

That sucks though, bloody commodores...

What happened to the simmons' wheels?

cheers,

floody

I fitted some different brake pads to it, and the calipers locked on the rim of the simmons, so they are just sitting here, well they were on my bluey for a while and i used them at the drags. yeh the 17s are the ones in the avitar. im not a fan of chromeys anymore either.

COPY CAT! hehe i am going to buy some 17x8 P1s they are a damn good wheel for the money

oh and my car runs a worked L28E not the normal L24E fuzza

Ive gotta get my rear end modified though, cos i currently have about 4 degrees camber and major toe out problem, which is eating through tyres fast!

(common problem with lowering IRS dattos)

easy fix costs about $4-500 fully adjustable

Light tap in the nose, no chassis damage, needs a front bar, left guard, left light and some sheetmetal on the inner guard where the guard panel mounts up straightened,and a tiny bit of straightening on about 1" of the left bonnet corner (it folded down the lip on the edge) plus paint. It drives and handles fine, no different to before the accident (ie quite good).

But I just can't be stuffed fixing it ATM, so I think I might sell up.

cheers,

floody

    • Welcome back to the scene! Godzilla Motorsports were well regarded back in the day.  My GT-R had work done there prior to my ownership.   SRS (Street Race Solutions) in Toowoomba worth a look.  They've built some pretty wild Skylines. Their YouTube channel is comedic to watch!  I'm sure they're all on the glass BBQ but they get shit done! 🤣
    • Hard to say what the extra connector is, it looks a bit like a coax type connector, so possibly a separate radio/GPS antenna, or even another camera input?  The V37 series (including the Q50), did go through a model refresh in 2020, since Australia didn't get any Q50s newer than 2019, we didn't get any of the refreshed models, so there could also be other unexpected problems to overcome to swap an older Q50 head unit into a new model V37. There probably aren't too many people around that have made these sorts of changes to a Q50/V37, so you might end up being the first if you do decide to go ahead. ACP is Apple Car Play and AA is Android Auto, they are roughly the same thing for the 2 major phone operating systems (Apple's iOS and Android), it allows you to connect your phone and access a number of your phone applications on your car system.  With Nav apps included, so you could use google maps/Waze or whatever your favourite navigation app is, instead of using the built in navi system.  I think this would be a better solution if it is only Navigation that you are looking as swapping the head unit for. GPS signals are the same around the globe as the GPS satellites continuously circle the globe, but it is the head unit that doesn't allow you to load Australian maps, or at least no-one had made an Australian map that will load up on the JDM head unit. Regarding the TV standards, I assume you are referring to the AV inputs?  I haven't ever tried to use them, Japan used a slightly modified version of the US NTSC system, and Australia uses PAL for composite video, that said, I wouldn't be surprised if a video input could work with either system.  That is mostly irrelevant here though, unless you plan to use those inputs for something?
    • If you've got bucket loads of $. Go single. If not, just upgrade the twins, Garrett -9's or whatever the current equivalent is for a healthy 350awkw and leave it at that. Will probably still cost you 10k to do in this day and age.
    • When you looking to buy injectors?? I could possibly sell you my 1d1700s for decent price. Done little work I just need bigger again 😫
