Would someone be kindly enough to post pics up of their AVCR location? Especially if it was installed under a single DIN! I am getting a custom plastic made for it.

Even if it wasn't under the single DIN, please include any mounting position pics of the boost controller. I've searched hours trying to get ideas!

Who has the most professional installation of the thing, I wonder.

Much appreciate it and many thx for your time!

yer dude go there, i have my pics up already just dont want to upload again..

i had my avc-r on the dash before that. looked good but every 1 wanted to race ;)

yes, they look awsome, thanks for the input!  

There is no restrictions in other states i think but NSW! (above the dash principle)

I am not sure on that so don't quote me!

This isn't the Boost controller, but i think the RSM is the same size?? even though there are no restricitions in WA about dash mounting, i didn't like the idea of having it stuck in the middle of my dash... all i've done here is remove the dashlight dimmer (which looked aftermarket anyway) and make a plate to fit in the holes left by pulling out those little plates. Cables all fit neatly into the dash and everything !

yer looks alright wld808 mine would be there to cos im thinking of bastards poping my window. but i hate that empty gap i have so i stuck in there.. i hide my turbo timer there tho, i guess urs is more like a "sleeper". (you got ur avcr working normally now?)

when i bought the car the avcr and afc were high up on the dash, was piss easy to move it i just had to cut a small hole in the top of the glovebox for the wires which you cant see. they both work just fine and i now also have the turbo timer with them. they werent even wired up when i bought it i had to do it all. i dont care much about the apexi stuff the only reason i didnt take them out is because it would take a long time to do and i cant use them on my next car. like i said before it would piss me off much more if someone damaged the door or window to steal them.

My friend also did exactly the same as pstanbis, but unfortunately it's not possible in an R33 as all the sensors for the climate control are there in an R33. He also at one stage took out his gauge sluster and mounted it in there with a piece of blanking sheet. That looked much better but I don't think it was all that legal.

thx pstanbis, if it not too much of a hassel.

Pandaemonaeon: yeah, as most of the people are scared of the pricks breaking windows, I am too. So I don't want it any where too obvious. So under the Din is alright. the Sunshade sounds good too. But I wonder how it's all done. And I want it to be undefectable! at least one off the list! LOL

You could do what I have done with my FBC hand controller and use a Flipdown DIN pocket under the H/U. An AVCR is a bit bigger so you would have to cut pieces out of it, but I'm sure it would still work. The flip down pockets should be available from any wrecker as they were in the R32.

I just ran some injector cleaner through her. started roughly the first time after adding it but gave it the beans slowly upto 4k, Must have cleaned a few cobwebs out. another step in the right direction for the sub
    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
