i dont suppose any 1 on here can do a lil stereo install for me? any of you guys done 1 before?

just want a new head unit put in, i dont have any subs or amps or anything like that.

would prefer to know that some apprentence has not taken my car for a spin while at a shop and its been done the right way not some half assed dodgy wiring job

there can be a bevarage exchange or some $$ might help with your xmas shopping

2 viable options

but on the 1 hand "you cant make friends with salad" "you cant make friends with salad" and they could be drift spec stereo installs? :excl:

on the other hand a name like sinistagts sounds like he could be part of the japanese mafia :excl: i think im getting the headlight switch prob i was reading in the maintenance section (half the time i only have 1 headlight even after changing the globe) so maybe i can con him into fixing that for me as well :worship:

im a north subs boy but im fine with having an excuse to take the GTR for a spin, i still havnt picked up the stereo yet and its ment to be xmas pressie so im trying to work it closer to the day without it being a pain in the ass.

what's the going rate these days

just sneaking this in at work though so hopefully thats good english :excl:

I have a prewired conversion loom to plug your stereo straight into your standard stereo loom, assuming all Skylines are the same (I made it for my R34). $50 if you want it. Plug and play.

sinistagst (dan) is an electronics engineer by trade, pretty sure he'd do stereo installs. He wired up up my boost gauge to my lights, i recommend him.

i thought he was only into engine's, when i met him he left me realising i dont know sh*t bout turbo's.

i dont know what that is :O but isnt $50 roundabout the mark to get the stereo installed at a shop anyway

i can install wiper blades.

if youre interested give me a pm.

wiper blades? :worship: there was some sarcasm behind that yeah

anyways cheers for all the offer's guys wasnt expecting that much of a response, its just a simple install though. i think engineers course is a bit of overkill :O good ta know we got some tech heads in the club though

do stereo's normally go cheaper closer to xmas or just after?

thats the lil baby im looking at, seems to look the closest to the 32's interior style with the slightly old school look. seen it for $300 at autobahn

i was ment to look at everyone's stereos at small car sunday to see what go's well with the interior but i forgot, hopefully ill make it out on the cruize tonight n see what ya all got though

dan, go to ang's audio tell him me and loz sent you. i got all my shit and the alarm installed for less then what the alarm costs by itself plus its pretty close to you.

Yeah I got my alarm fitted at Ang's Audio, top bloke and very reasonable pricing!

i installed my sterio in my car with the help of one of the boys at autobarn (dont work there anymore i quit) and it wasnt that hard really the dash is easy when you pull all the right bits off in the right order and i checked the price for you $300.00 can be done but normaly would be close to 399.00 but in saying that xmas things are cheaper and all autobarn stores have a huge sale on boxing day like everything is sold at almost cost price and get in early cause every man and his dog goes there it's crazy, so hold off untill boxing day if you can

lol $50 for a stereo install - good luck with that! The male part of the loom (if you do an install properly) to plug into the factory loom is $30 at cost. Plus tons of soldering and mucking around. Hence why me selling the conversion loom is crazy value at $50.

Shouldnt cost more than $150 max! Dan (sinista) has done some electrical work on my GTR and have been happy with the result but as Dan said he is a little flat out atm moving to QLD and playing with his new girls car. :ermm:

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
