Eclipse. Nothing else. Thats my oppinion anyway.

Thanks for everyones replies.

I have started having a look and there are lots of options.

Eclipse has caught my attention and there is a model with 5V preout for the mid $350.

However it has 1 bit DAC (including the Pioneer 6850)and some other brands can have 24 bit D/A

Have also been offered a Pioneer 5850 for $538 with extra waranty.

This model has Burr Brown D/A ???? 6.5v preouts, BMX and Listening Pos stuff.

Picked up this one at Christmas time

Best sound output. Good old Dolby Digital

Cost me $750 but i think its back up to over $1000

This unit has everything! Even plays my Dual Layered DVD's filled with 8.5gig of mp3's :bomb_ie:

If you want a cheap HU that still does most stuff

i got a JVC (cant remember model number)

from JB for $250 (rrp is $320 or something but i

talked them down and paid cash). It plays MP3/WMA and has

sub/front/rear rca outputs.

Does everything thing i need it to.

Just after some opinions of what are the good Headunits at the moment.

Prices roughly if you know as well. What brands are best too.

After MP3 capability.

I used to really love alpine because I had a kick ass system in my last car, but since i put a pioneer in my current one i've been quite happy with it. i think it's a 3551?? Bought around christmas last year for $369 and it's a pretty decent deck with mp3 and an equaliser and remote

Yeah, my first HU was a JVC. Was one of the cheapest MP3 HU's out when the technology was release.

I have a full alpine system now, and while I am happy with it, I wouldn't say I wouldn't buy anything else...

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
