MEH!

My CD player won't eject a CD and i'm getting 'CD Err F0.' I reckon it's just cheaper to sort out a connection to my ipod. Is there an AUX at the back of the player or do I need to buy an adaptor, similar to the V35's.

Oh and I didn't realise VE SS did the 100 in only 5.5secs, dayyamm

There are heaps of threads about "fixing" the CD error, have a search in here or in the V35 section.

For an iPod connection to the OEM head unit, the USA Spec PA15-NIS is what you'd be after for simple plug and play (although you will need to get behind the headunit)

I use that same USA Spec set up. Awesome sound quality and VERY easy to fit and set up. Cost was under $150 delivered from the US. It also has a spare audio input if you want to hook something else to it and also charges the iPhone.

scchwweet, thanks for link.

I ordered mine here. Mine was a tad cheaper as the dollar was higher at the time

Hi All

Had a strange idling problem with my ARX - I was driving the car for good 2 hours then pulled over

strangely the car idles so low where it feels like its going to die. Any thoughts?

Also, can anyone PM me service details for each KMS ie: 10,000kms service and so fort

Thanks everyone

Cheers!!!!

So that will fit the non bose system? Does an installation manual come with it?

Yep fits the single DIN factory deck. Comes with instructions although its very easy to install. All you need to do is name the playlists on your iPhone with Nissan in them.

I run:

Nissan 1 - artists

Nissan 2 - albums

Nissan 3 - all songs

Nissan 4 - blank

Nissan 5 - blank

Nissan 6 - blank

You can set them how you like but you need to name them 1-6 with Nissan.

Nissan 5 allow direct iPhone control rather than control from the deck. If in 1-3 playlists you can jump song/albums/artist via the 1-6 buttons on the head unit.

Overall its a great unit to connect your iPhone/ipod.

Import monster/ streeter?

On another note, Im looking at wheels at the moment. Im not happy with the flap in the sidewall I currently have on one, especially considering I have a drive to Melbourne coming up. Not replacing tyres on the 17s, rather move to 18s.

Looking at either 350z track 18x8+30 or CE28S 18x8.5+30.

Ive seen pics of the 350z track fitment and it looks good. Ive also seen people with 19x8.5+22 and it looks good. Would i be right in thinking 18x8.5+30 will be a good fit?

Not sure if you remember how mine sit but they are 9+30 and I wouldn't go any lesser than that. I think a 8.5+30 will sit in the guard too far.

I'm running +37 by 8.5 and they don't stick in to far.....you can always run some spacers if you want more track!

No the 8.5 will sit out another 6mm and in another 6mm. To fill the guards I would go either a 9+30 or 8.5+22 or if you want them Out the guard a little go for 9+25. These sizes keep good clearance inside to the suspension arm.

PM me your number and I'll send you a pic of how mine sit, can't upload on here as I accidentally killed my MacBook yesterday ?

Well the 350Z Track wheels look ok, based on the pics Ironpaw has posted:

001-Copy.jpg

002-Copy.jpg

003-Copy.jpg

004-Copy.jpg

005-Copy.jpg

So if the 8.5 is going to give me another 6mm that sounds fine. I don't need to fill the guards right up, and I don't really want them out the guards.

Just wanted to make sure they'd clear, and try and get an idea of how the 18x8.5+30 would look compared to the 350Z 18x8+30, because I knew there were pics online of the 350Z wheels. Might give the guy a call and try and drop round and test fit on the weekend.

Cheers for the help, PM sent.

All depends on how much low you have.

The moar low, the bigger offset you can tuck in- to a point. If you dropped Ironpaws car 1 inch all round, the wheels would be tucked in and IMO wouldn't look great.

Just type in "wheel offset calculator" into Google, and that will tell you how much it will change by. Stock is 17x7 +45. Go from there. We have seen up to 18x9.5 +30... or maybe even a tougher offset on M35s.

Yep, your car is pretty damn low from memory Ryan! I'd be thinking you'll need 10mm spacers at a minimum to make them look even remotely close to "fitment".

    • As an ex-skyline owner Going off how these things are now "modern classics", I would keep the twins and just "refresh" bits that are required for reliable power and have a car you can take out for a cruise whenever you get the itch As a idiot who cannot leave things alone Going deep into the "rabbit hole" is a easy thing to do, as previously mentioned, once you start it becomes a slippery slope, wirh lots of supporting mods, and possibly rebuilds, and unless you have a bottomless pit of funds, the car can spend most of its life sitting in the garage,  broken, waiting for parts, or building more funds For a classic like a R32 GTR Basically, a reliable OEM+ refresh, that isn't a broken garage queen, is alot better than a car that you build, then break, then fix, then break again And it isn't just the engine you need to worry about, these beasties are getting on in age, and all parts are getting, and have got, expensive, the days of picking up cheap replacement engines and other driveline parts are well and truly over The funds not spent on going a single with quality parts, and with all the other other bits required to make it happen, could be spent on refreshing alot of other parts A wise man once said "If you cannot afford 2 GTR's, you cannot afford 1", I also believe he said this about 20 years ago when you could pick up a clean R32 GTR up for around $20k My advice for a R32 GTR (the one and only true Godzilla in my mind) is to think holistically about the whole car, the body, the power train, the suspension, the brakes, and the driveline SAU is a wealth of knowledge with decades of Skyline experience,  from stock, to OEM+, to modified to varying degrees, to full on or weekend or dedicated racecars, as well as full on money pits that rarely leave their garage Treat the old girl nice and give her what she deserves, you are a lucky man to own such a classic car  
    • For that price you could buy the hypergear turbo (big fan as I run one) and the Haltech ECU..
    • +1 for the Elite 2500. Get some new knock sensors while you are at it (pretty cheap), look up the TAARKS Nissan knock sensor kit. You may also want to get new coils (R35gtr) while your at it (assuming your on stock ones), as they are a liability. Mine started right up and idled fine on the base map. Also go MAP over MAF, as said above, Haltech make this super simple right out the box. Another fanboy of DBW here, Outsider Garage from your neck of the woods make some nice conversion gear for the R33 (that’s where I got some of my gear from).
