so what ecxactly isnt working? the skylines shouldnt have a factory fitted amp, otherwise it would be a bitch to replace speakers and decks. the unit you are probably talking about is either the wiper unit or a part of the 4WS but either way it has nothing to do with your system if it is factory fitted :D

Beg to differ eliter33. Most R32s I've seen have cylindrical amp under the centre of the parcel shelf. Mines a clarion. It has 11 small gauge wires to a single plug, 4 of which match the colours of the wires going to the rear speakers. I assume the other wires are 4 high level inputs, 12V, earth, remote.

If it's a round diecast thing it's the audio amplifier.

You got it to. :uh-huh: Mine was a Panasonic and now resides in the dumpmaster.

I just cut the speaker wires out of the plug and bypassed it all.

I'm tipping they use it to save running starter cable to the back speakers.

My R32 is a tarmac rally car so the sound system is purely a very secondary option

Thanks guys :D

I have a s1 R33 factory fitted with "Kenwood Cruising" system (premier dealer option) with a kenwood amp in the boot ( unfinished alloy casting). so I guess it depends on what box was ticked at the dealership as to what goodies may be in the boot.

      OEM Soko: Japanese business supplying Automotive items from Japan - Freebie inside!

      We have some genuine Japanese legally decommissioned car number plates now in stock 🙂 Add some legitimately obtained JDM style to your Skyline or other Japanese model, or simply as a garage/man cave decoration! About the 40mm hole: The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure & Transport in Japan recognised the popularity of keeping decommissioned plates among car enthusiasts and came up with a method to "destroy" (or render them unusable for street use) while still retaining their collectable/usable value for display etc.  We have 40mm hole covers available to cover the hole nicely with a Sakura motif, which are also available in white in (very!) limited quantities, however they frequently sell out. Please let me know if you're wanting one or more of these and I'll check availability. The Sakura motif covers are more common. https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set-su-7515 https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-400mm-hole-cover *Please note that we can't obtain particular number or area name (eg: "Gunma 500 Fu ・86") if requested. All plates are provided as they become available after decommissioning.

      Ah, fair enough. For the IAT, I'm using a legit GM sensor that was used on the car prior to my current build. I'll get another wideband and IAT ordered and follow up when they show up. Thanks for the help.

      You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.

      Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?
