Hi Guys,

Thank you for the kind words Matt, glad to see another happy client.

Our website is getting upgraded at the moment but here is a link to see some our installs and retrims.

Kind Regards

P.S ...... on a personal note. These V35's are one sexy car. Matt your car looks awesome. We did a custom stealth install in a black GTR R34 recently and i thought that car was hot, but the V35 has to be definitely on my shortlist for sex appeal.

Hi everyone back from QLD and wow what a drive.

I got to meet the famous Chris Rogers in person and he is great to deal with.

I got the iPOD control installed exactly the same and it does indeed work a treat.

But the best thing i did was get Chris to install 1 box / 8 sheets of Dynamatt all over the car. As with all my previous cars i find this makes the biggest and best sound quality difference.

Im not even going to worry about forking out $$$$ for better speakers and things now because there are no longer any vibrations in the car with any sort of bass level. I am very happy with the audio right now. Maybe later down the line i may go to some focal or rainbow speaker setup and get my amps and subs installed but not right now. Its not needed!!!

Thanks again chris! PS - post the photos on here if you'd like.

PPS - please send me the photos! :pirate:

Hakki did my system front to back late last year.

I was very happy. I provided the ipod integration gadget, which came with a little

wireless remote you velcro onto the handbrake so you can pause or go from track

to track without picking up the ipod.

He did a custom buried floor sub enclosure removable, trimmed it in the same boot carpet

and he did a custom amp install that looks factory. He also did awesome

kick panel mounted floor tweeters, covered also to look factory.

my only (not real) gripe is he is too busy - because I want to go back for some more HKS

controller integration into the second din pocket, and have to wait weeks to get a slot!

I'm intregued by this Dynamatt stuff, I had not heard of it before, how does it work. I have spent hours chasing a vibration sound in the middle of my rear parcel shelf, drilled screws in and everthing, could never quite get rid of it, so I figured it was easier just to live with it, since it only did it on one particular song.

it makes the panel heavier and thus harder to 'move' thats the laymens version.

in the case of one sydney car (BLSTIC) its on the whole car. the difference is quite noticable.

You can get them off US ebay, some places will ship to Australia. Should be able to land one for just under $200 with the exchange rate just above 80c to the US dollar.

I just bought one off this mob: http://myworld.ebay.com.au/audiosavings/

I want to use it with my iphone so having included the new style 5V charger cable was important to me. $118US worked out to $151AU delivered in the US. Since I was getting it sent over I also picked up a Homelink mirror from a guy wrecking his G35 for $50US.

So when they get to my cousin in New York he will send them both over, should be small enough to get both in a 'Small Package' box with USPS so only $13US. Don't know why ebay sellers always want to charge so much for international delivery!

do you know if the PA11 will work with Iphone on 3.0?

most of the site i look up mentioned its not compatiable with 3.0 and shuffle......

Can't really think of a reason that firmware 3.0 would cause an issue. The charge voltage hasn't changed and dock adapters still work. The bluetooth stack has been improved but that will not affect this i would think.

Mine cleared customs on Monday so should be arriving late this week or next. I won't have time to install until next weekend so will update then as to if it causes any issues.

I'm also waiting on delivery of a iphone 3g specific dock so I can try to make up something to go where the ashtray is, rather than paying the obscene price they want for one of these...

Very neat though!

whooa, that looks so nice!

when u done ur post some pic plz~~coz i am thinking of the same idea with DIY dock in the ash tray

also another question...we all know that PA11-NIS works with the Vs...

I found other type on ebay, the "PXAMG"

PXAMG - ebay

its got the feature for the HDRT - HD radio....not sure if that works on the JDM Vs, or the Oz radio.

So it arrived Wed night after that post and naturally I was out there tearing down the dash 10 minutes later. All in all an extremely easy install, didn't even get to use my soldering skills, all plug and play! Though I had dismantled the dash before to install my FM expander so that part was very familiar.

Currently I have the whole ashtray & cig lighter assembly out whilst I work out a way to neatly integrate the dock in there, so there is a gaping hole with the cable coming out. How does it work with the iphone 3g running 3.0 firmware? Excellent, no complaints. Steering wheel controls work, sounds is crystal clear, I even listen to my podcasts of various Triple J segments instead of the radio cause the quality is better.

On that other connector, my opinion would be don't risk it. The PA11-NIS works perfectly, and this other one doesn't appear to have any additional benefits (song text doesnt work with the pre 06 V's with any connector)... so go with what you know.

So, now time to work out the best way to integrate the dock, suggestions welcome. I will take some happy snaps of install to date and post next week.

    • Duncan:- it affect both sides.  Driver side is worse.
    • That seems like a very special issue!  Does it affect both sides? Either way, I would disconnect the driver's side switch and see if it still happens, noting that might require removal of the whole door card which is a bit of a pain (it does on V37 and HY51)  
    • MBS206:- The windows start to slowly open themselves. GTSBoy:- Battery is new since Dec. 
    • I currently have a 2008 370GT Coupe, with the big brakes (Akebeno if I'm correct), and Its coming time to get new pads. Previously, I had a 2003 350GT Coupe with the stock sized brakes, not Brembos. I had custom wheels on it that were pretty open to the brakes, and when I first put the wheels on it, the rims where completely coated with brake dust. A few years after adding the new rims, I needed to change to pads on that car. I didn't do any research, but I told the mechanic of the problem with the brake dust. I also told him I didn't track the car or even drive around the streets harshley. But the dust was an issue. The mechanics changed the pads to a different compound, and the dust was GONE! The other change I noted was that when coming to a complete stop, instead of having to press harder on the pedal as I approached 0kph, I had to actually lift off a little to not come to a hard jerky stop.( My unfounded explanation is they became stickier as they heated by stopping ) Since I got my 370gt with big brakes, I noticed that that as I came closer to stopping, I had to press harder and harder to reach a full stop. I am not talking about hard, just harder. I brought the car in from another state, so when I had a blue slip done, I asked the mechanic what he thought of the brakes, and he thought they were brilliant. The only negative of these pads on the 350GT, was that they squealed when cold. So driving out of a shopping center carpark, it was a little embarrassing, as the brakes squealed, and I am sure people thought that I needed new brakes, when they were actually fresh. I have no idea of what type of compound they were on the 350gt, but whatever it was, I want to get the exact same on my 370GT. They weren't ridiculously expensive, and were replaced at the local JAX (which is no longer open), so I am certain they would be a pretty common big brand, off the shelf type/brand. My current mechanic suggested I need top get the rear pads changed soonish, but he suggested standard Brembo pads. Which I expect to behave the same as the current ones and not like the ones on the 350GT.  I don't think dust will be an issue on the 370GT. With the behaviour I describe above on the 360GT, does anyone have a suggestion of pad material that will act like the change I had done on the 350GT?
