Recommended Posts

Hey all.

Was reading a import mag earlier with a silver cefiro owned by a fella in victoria called chris, seen he relocated his under bonnet fuse box.

And I wanna do the same, just wondering where would be the best place, I was thinking maybe glove box. Boots too far but would be the go.

And noo im not putting a cover over it. :P

Cheers

if youre going to do it, do it properly, pull the dash out, pull the whole loom out ect

i did it with dash in and didnt remove the loom, was nothing but drama's, shit not working, stuff shorting out, blowing fuses, massive mess under the dash

i ended up starting again with a new loom and left it in the stock spot and just stripped it to bare minimum

this is what i ripped out

I've just done mine chocky. basically pull the full loom from out of the front of the car. Strip the tape off the loom and work out where its going to sit under the dash, mine is right next to the other fuse panel cable tied up out of the way. Then cut and shorten and solder/heatshrink each cable one by one. while the loom was stripped I also removed the Abs wiring to cut out some cables, then I also drilled a hole just above the chassis rail near the alternator to bring that wiring out under the guard then back over the wheel arch and moved the battery to the boot but run the power wire in behind the strut down under the break booster to the starter motor. Having it ran here also allowed me to put a decent fuse in and also a place to put the jumper leads if i need to jump start the car again.

    • Two golds! Struggled to get silver on Gran Valley.
    • Interesting that it has 2 to the USB stick. Are the ones to the USB stick different? Or labelled anything at all? Telstra 4G is Band 28 is the long range one you want, it's 700mHz. I'm trying to do some reading on the Cel-Fi stuff, but I can't find any decent info online that makes me feel comfortable being able to work out the sort of antennas we could get away to swapping it over to. The antennas I'm starting to do some stuff with at work, are a transparent antenna. They're designed to stick onto the window. Which means you wouldn't even have the antenna outside the car. Volkswagen have just started using the exact same types of antennas on some of their new cars (And from the same antenna manufacturer). But, RF stuff is a bit of a dark art some days, and getting it wrong in your car could make for a terrible waste of money trying to swap antennas :S
    • I'm not going to lie Duncan, Saturday and Sunday were pretty rough days. The sort of work I was doing would previously have ended up with me spending about an hour and a half chatting with Neil. Firstly about something I had a question about, and then both of us rambling off on tangents.  I think how Neil did things, and his attitude to getting it done is helping me in part to get this stuff done. Then I can actually do the things I enjoy more easily  
    • Talked to another R34 GT-T owner, he said bonnet of his car once fell and slammed from full height because of strong wind at a car show and nothing was damaged or broken, so I guess I'm just overthinking some things but yeah, just making sure I'm not damaging the car anyhow cause wanna keep it for a long time.
    • I would say 100% that it doesn't matter at all. I have an Al bonnet and I drop it sometimes, push it others. Have done so for 25 years and there's no way to tell that either has caused any problems (because there are no problems).
