I had the same problem. Tried all options (moving earth point, new rca leads etc...) and nothing worked. The problem was that on my pioneer head unit RCA outputs there was no earth reference on the shield. So I soldered a copperwire onto the shield (earth) of both of the rca outputs and earthed it to the chassis of the head deck. No more noise. I'm not sure if my headdeck was faulty from factory as i and the other techs at work couldn't see a earth track to the circuit board. I have Audiobahn amps which are american(purchased at JB in Aus along with head deck) and the headdeck is australian. Not sure whether this had something to do with the problem as i've heard that some american cars are positive to chassis.

My stagea had the nissan 2 pin plug for the aerial feed.

I've already got the blue twisted pair RCA's, tried changing the amps over, tried moving RCA's further away from Power cables to amps. Tried a noise suppresor which didn't work. I did talk to one of our service technicians at work and he said that most car amps have a power inverter with a noise suppresor in it, he thinks that a spike with the power could have possibly blown the noise suppresor or damaged the inverter which could possibly cause the noise. Does anyone know of any good Car amp repairers on the Gold Coast in QLD?

I just looked through my 258 page Stagea manual and could not find a button marked Light Reduce. Good luck finding out!!

Hi All, I got a problem with engine noise coming through my front pioneer splits. I have the power running down one side of the car and the signal cables on the other side. I have checked the earth (and moved it) of the amplifier running it many times. My setup goes like this Pioneer Headeck running 6"'s for rear fill (no noise), Remote going to amps with RCA line outs also going to amps. Then I have a monoblock audiobahn amp running my 2 * pioneer 12" Subs<- seems to be no whine coming from the subs, most likely due to the low pass filter. I have the main signal cable coming into the monoblock then paralled out of the monoblock into the other 2 chan audiobahn amp. I have 4 gauge running from bat to a split where i have 1 * 4AWG cable and 1 *8AWG cable from the split running to my amps. The amps have different earthing points. The Remote on cable is part of the shielded signal cable which also goes into the monoblock and parallels to the 2 chan amp. The signal cable has a Left right and remote cable. The noise gets louder when i have aircon, wipers or lights on and always with acceleration. Which leads me to the possibility of a dirty acc signal. Is this possible? The signal cable does run past a computer, but other than that its free from power cabling. Oh by the way it is a Nissan Stagea RS four V. Any help much appreciated as I think i'm going to crack. :bonk: :bonk:

Yeah I had a 4 wheel drive come over a while ago and it came with a panasonic home hi fi in the boot running off of an inverter. Got to install my sound system this weekend

Not to be rude mad wagon, but what is happening with the car? Did you have insurance? Hope that you are feeling better.

Mad Wagon, Thats some real bad news man My car just got regoed today. What is the damage like on your car? I hope that its not too bad so we can still go cruising. Just got back from the springbrook mountains where i was eating up 180SX's and S13 Silvias, they were looking at me like 'What the' As my friends hung out of the rear sunroof waving at them.. Crazy evening Get better soon MW

I got the same clicking noise too. Might not be broken..

Hey Burkey 22 I saw your Stagea at skyline imports when i picked up my stagea on wednesday.Looks good!

Hey Edwardo Did you purchase that stagea from TAU? If you were I was the other guy bidding against you. Didn't end up getting it cause the plate was missing. Have you had any troubles?

I have a pair of R34 GT-T Front Seats avalible
