hey guys just got a mate (who works in an install shop) to fit some sound system and security systems to my car...

few problems;

A- Since he has installed the security system on my R34 (simple immobiliser and central locking just for the time being til i get more money up) a red light is flashing on the dash constantly its only half illuminated so i cant really make out the word but it looks like the word "jag" or something??

B- I bought (what i thought) were very very good speakers... $450 Hertz splits for the fronts and $300ish Hertz rears running off a focal 400w 4ch amplifier also a Polk subwoofer and just a basic 250w clarion amplifier to run that.. my problem is that the speakers arent loud at all.. they sound like they have jus treble no bass at all and the bass (from the woofer) hits some notes and the car just goes crazy and then the next note will just be flat.... i expected more from this... he said i need to give time for the speakers to "bed" in so is this just my problem or does the amps neeed to be tinkered with??

Cheers

is your mate brett,scott,garth ,warren or alan?

before you ask questions on here how about going back to shop in question (if it was fitted there on the books) and explain you are not happy. yes I know who you are referring to and the shop in question. have seen a gry R34 sitting outside that shop a few times now. if that is you then I know the car in question. regarding the focal items: they DO need break in time.

as for the immobiliser - no idea. could tell you more if I saw it.

nah my car was done out of hours hasnt been to the shop at all, it wasnt done on the books and im not sure if i should say any names jus incase anyone gets in trouble..

Chris - if i brought it to your shop how much would you guys charge to just go over it and re-tune all the amps just to make sure everything is setup right? Also have a look at that red light i was referring to?

Crazy mofo - nah mate i havent tinkered with any of it... dont know much about amplifier settings etc so not really keen on doing that sorta stuff... spose ill give it a few weeks to bed in and see if im happier than...

    • Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.
    • interesting. ive read and heard otherwise over the past year. ive been doing this +t conversion on a rb20 neo using all oem rb25det neo parts including the ECU, and im having engine cut out issues when I hit around 5 psi of boost. Everywhere/everyone ive asked has told me its because I never wired in a boost solenoid/actuator to the ecu, so the ecu isn't getting the right signal once it hits 5 psi of boost, causing the engine to get shut off.
    • Mate, I take this thread in random directions on occasion myself, so no foul I'm a old fan of MCM anyway, I like their banter, and enjoy most of the stuff they do
    • Something strange is happening. I didn't touch the car since we last spoke on the forums. Yesterday was the first day of good weather, so i took it out for about 2 hours. It started up on first crank every time about 5 times total. I literally didn't do anything to do the car.  
    • I purchased this one. Very well priced and works great. I was rough with it to see if it will last and had no issues.  Teslong Two-Way Articulating Borescope with Light, Industrial Endoscope Inspection Camera with Articulated Probe, Flexible Mechanic Fiber Optic Snake Scope Cam for Wall Automotive Engine Inspect-5FT : Amazon.ca: Industrial & Scientific
