The install looks realy great... but

How do you change the bulbs? have you got pull out pannels etc??

Thanks Dean

Change what bulbs? The rear lights? Well the trunk is made up by sections, so the section covering the rear of the trunk can be removed to display the rear bulb holders.

I dont know what you mean about "pull out pannels etc"? ;)

To ALL,

I didnt do it at the time of our stereo install,however i came up with the idea after and one of the lads in our club did it to his '33 prior to fitting up his install.Got you wondering what i'm talking about?The idea is so simple and not too much harder to achieve-------cut out the spare wheel well in your boot turn it upside down and reweld it back in place.Took a couple of lazy hours to complete on a sunday.You still have ample space for a serious install and can fit a space saver under the car for your long cruises and interstate trips.

Regards,

SKYLINE (Kym)... :headspin:

spare wheel lol, who cares that tiny 125 thing would probably be more dangerous id rather tow the car if it was that bad, i ditched mine when i put the 19s on there and since my install has no room for a spare at all...

Just wondering how you went installing the Pioneer AVH head unit. I got mine installed but in the skyline the oustide bracket/cover/plate doesn't seem to fit very well. I shaved down the sides so now it slips in & the top can clip in but it looks like the bottom is a bit low now too. So only the top seems to clip in.

Just wondering how you went :P

Cheers,

Penfold

Im sorry I dont have any buildpics from the head-unit install. But all I can say is that it sticks out a bit, I will try to take a good picture of how it looks more in detail.

got a few questions for ya mate first off

what did they use to mold the carpet is it fiber glass or plaster

how did they get the mold out once was dry did they just cut out the few sections and pulled it out cause i thought it would have been screwed down did you have to get the screws out as first and how hard was that

was is hard to cut the sections out with out damaging anything under neath

i ask because im about to atemp this myself very soon and it seems like the best way to do it but i basicaly need to know what was it molded with and how did you get it out of the boot once was dry thanks

Thanks.

The system is built for quality sound (but I did a test with just the trunk subs, measuring inside the coupé of 129 db). Now the back seat has gone and it is playing alot louder, not measured though, but it sounds great!

First wood, then fiberglass and then glue to hold the carpet against the shape of the fiberglass.

The sections were made separately and placed and screwed together, so it is easy to remove for service/update.

      R32 goes out in right curves

      That's true. However, this problem has started since the tuning. First time with the return journey from the tuning. But yes, the pipe was clogged with dirt and rust. That was certainly due to age

      Great info @tidi0x  Will definitely be handy for others and maybe me if I decide to keep the shit box H pattern.

      Bumping this up one last time.... I wanted to follow up on the clutch slave issue. I realized that what the issue comes down to is the pocket is flat milled, and the cylinder does not want rest flat. So in order to mount it correctly you will need to make a spacer for the fingers so the cylinder is floating. I took two plates of aluminum, drilled some holes and was good. I did still need to make the relief cuts in the bell housing, as even with the spacer the bleed section still interferes. The OE bell housing the mounting holes are raised from the housing.

      R32 Gtst - Track Car

      If the event in USA goes ahead will be interesting as it seems the rules will get more cars over here. Apparently the track is laguna seca too. Yeah s15, if I get a the lower dash trims, centre console and change front cross member to standard LCA position will fit clubsprint. See how rules are as i would rather do complete widebody than a bolt on flare to run the 295 with proper clearance.

      If the car is legal height I can't see it being an issue. Found a thread on reddit that might offer some insight.   I got a ticket from a copper in QLD for my S15 being too low. They had this wheel thing on a stick that they put under the car and it hit my exhaust. Anyhow went to an exhaust shop to get the exhaust tucked up/hung a little higher and I wound the coilovers up a smidge. Don't think I even had to go back to the police station unlike when I got defected for having a carbon bonnet when I brought the S15 from the ACT to QLD and had to replace it and then rock up at a police station and have a yougish female officer who knew nothing about cars confirm that I had changed bonnets. Should have just painted the carbon bonnet yellow to match the rest of the car lol
