guess what i have im my bank account :thumbsup:

temporary numbers?

As an aside, looks like I will be getting a custom radiator done from Race Radiators with the money from Kev.

Seems that Mishimoto G35 radiator just won't let the airbox fit in the engine bay. Damn.

Beautiful unit too!

I know it's old news but I just officially spent my stimulus package.

Mine has gone to Hornsby Nissan :) how unexciting!

But anyway, new front pads and machined discs and a variety of other bits and pieces.

I spose the next thread should be what are you going to spend your tax return on, hopefully I will find something more exciting like a remap of the M35 ECU or a set of 19" Osaka Mannus wheels.

yeah i rekon! we bought the fiat 500, i bought a camera and + lenses + other crap, so im pretty sure ive been stimulating the economy. recession my ass, its media hype and the fact that some US companies are cutting costs world wide.

Have not watched the "news" since the first week of Jan.

I don't have the need to hear biased, politically motivated and filtered information.

i just read the age online every week or so and just skim through all the crap to the "sport" "technology" and the "motoring" :D

i dont think i've intentionally watch a 'news' program for a few years at least. ;)

i prefer national geographic channel and sci-fi :D

i wish i had cable tv lol hmmm discovery channel

but i download enough stuff to keep me goinng. and by download, i mean i legally purchase DVDs :D

and can anyone tell me where asian bird flu went?? ohh thats right, it went nowhere. good scare like swine flu! effing useless.

lol, your Sci-fi is probably more factual than the commercial channel news broadcasts anyway! ;)

if only :D i dont think theres much on sci-fi i cant watch.. apart from the b grade late 80s early 90s sci fi movies.

    • 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?
    • To be fair - you see the same thing for every clutch. There's always someone making an installation error.
    • Just saw this, redacted names. It's on a R33 GTS-t Facebook group. Looks like still teething issues.
