Anyone around Wollongong (South of sydney) that can install a Car audio system (the lot, head deck, splits front and rear, amps, sub, dynamat etc)

In a R34 GT-T 1998 Model.

Thanks in advance, as i asked around some electronic stores and they charge a ridiculous amount just for installation.

FHRX Studios .. don't look any further. They're NOT cheap but they WILL do an excellent job and won't damage your car in any way. Tell Marty, Denis with the black R34 sent ya :D

I only had them fix up some wiring and install dynamats etc in my doors ... don't have the moulah to do the next step. Just for approx. ref. I got quoted about $1800 to rewire the entire car properly with heavy guage wire, a custom sub enclosure, with a decent 12" subwoofer, 4 channel amp, installation and tuning (atleast 6 hours of work) etc.. it'll probably be a bit more if you need dynamat done as well.

Do it once do it right .. you don't want someone scratching up your interior or things blowing up or car rattling like an empty can after a cheap job.

I believe their hourly charge is $77 ... you might find cheaper eg. $55 ph but is it really worth it? If it takes 5 hours you only save $100 going to someone cheaper, who maybe doesn't have any clue as to what they're doing or doesn't care as much as Marty does.

You can save yourself some labour charges if you really have to by getting dynamat sheets yourself and installing them. It really looks simple, you just need a small roller (to make it stick good) and a couple of hours and you'd be done with the front doors.

As for gear ... they can supply anything you want and their prices are VERY good (not a big markup at all) I've compared some of the quotes I was given to current 'specials' at some other places and sometimes they were even lower.

I know very good chap in ENMORE (Sydney), let me know if this not too far so I can giveyou need his details

Do you know how much they charge on install alone?

Im trying to find someone private so i might be able to grab it cheaper :D

why bother. if you are going to cheap out then you are only screwing yourself.

that said there are people in the sydney market charging $110/hr and dont have a clue..

food for thought.

i can vouch for marty and the boys , they will look after you

i did a amp install there and it was perfect , and the boys did a great job , even stuffer around it for 2 days until they sorted it to be 100%

you do pay a little more but in end you will be happy and problem free

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
