The radio itself still works fine....what we do is use the switches on the dash near the steering wheel for the controller instead, so they no longer control the radio.

But you always have the option of a seperate switch and keeping the dash radio controls for the radio....if you ever use them :)

Just wanted to say thanks Duncan with the install and Mark for making the unit.

Finally had a chance to play with it and definately makes a difference and just have to work out the setting best suited for me. Good work guys.

Hi Andrew, I've just emailed the details across to you :)

For everyone else interested, there are currently 3 available so we can get them sent out pretty much straight away D:

Hi, I'm interested. I would like to fit one to a R32 gtr. Please contact me

Thanks

I saw what the extra plates in the centre do on Snowies car, and while good for track, not good for tight stuff so this is a better solution for all 'round. I'll grab one after I recover from surgery in a month or so. No sense depriving the needy when I can barely drive :)

Actually I'm pretty sure that R32GTS4 is the first to try one on a gts4, but I am 99.9999% sure it will be fine as it uses the same system.

There is 1 available from the current batch or you can see how he goes and grab one later :cheers: You will love it :)

Just a quick update to the manual for everyone that has bought one of these.

There are actually 2 RWD modes on the controller, not one as the manual states.

1) Hold the down button down for 5 sec and it goes into "almost-rwd". There will be basically no front torque except under extreme conditions, but your ABS will still work and there will be no ATESSA warning light

2) Hold the up button for 5 sec to put the car in full RWD mode, this will also stop ABS working and the ATESSA light comes on, but there will be no front torque at all. This mode is the same as pulling the 4wd fuse.

Hey Geoff yes all the RWD only mode will work on all ATESSA systems....but it doesn't change how the 33 and 34 systems work and so you might damage them using the RWD only mode. So my recommendation is only use the RWD mode in a 32....unless someone wants to test it out for me lol

It could be ok given the clutch pack nature of the transmission system. My take is the 33/34s have more preload initially but don't know if that is electronically controlled or a physical relationship. Certainly some of the Jap controllers allow for full RWD on these models unless I've crossed some lines somewhere.

    • -9s are discontinued supposedly. But you can still get Nismo R3 turbos which are something like a -7 but subtly different? -7s are also available. HKS GTIII-SS and GTIII-2530 are also available but they're journal bearing MHI turbos.
    • Late to this party but here is your go to shop in perth - https://www.facebook.com/gsautoworksau GTSBOY is on the money cost wise, drive in and out will cost you 15-30k or more.    Some items that will save you money  - plug in link ecu g4x is much cheaper than haltech.   -Pulsar turbo, seem to be "OK" now, never used one myself You really don't have to build the motor, E85, headgasket, studs and a good RB26 will live for ever.    Swapping over the twins won't save much as you still need ecu, tune, fuel system etc.          
    • 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.
