Guy i went into jaycar and brought a $15 cassette tape that plugs into the tape deck and the other end into my iphone the guys says the music i have stored on my iphone will play thru the car speakers.

So i plug it in and press the tape into the deck and full volume sound very very fussy and faint music.

Any ideas ?

Almost.

Consider this your first and final warning.

There is absolutely no reason why you need to start 3 topics with exactly the same thing.

On top that there are countless audio threads already.

If you feel there's a valid reason why you did need to start 3 topics, please PM me and let me know.

yep spend more money and do it properly.

I dont want to spend 100's of dollars just to play music in the car when the tape should do the same thing for $15 . I would prefer burning the music onto cd and putting them into the car , i thought this option for $15 yeah il give it a try.

So nobody knows why the music isnt loud ? Could there be a problem with the tape deck i dont have any tapes to test it

Check you have the headphone jack plugged in properly.

If the head deck has an option for playing the other side of the tape, try that. Or flip the cassette over and put it back in.

Hi and thank you for your help. It does have an option fof playing side a and side b which i tried. I also made sure the aux end is all the way into the iphone and it is, i have no idea whats wrong im going back to the store tomorrow for some advice.

I would like to know how to check to see if the problem isnt my tape deck.

By full volume do you mean the volume on the deck? Have you tried turning the volume up to full on your iphone first?

But yeah, quality will always suck using this technology.

I had one of these tape adaptors back in the day for my first car (used my portable CD player) and the cassette part was designed so that you could run the cable out either end, which enabled you to flip the tape over. If you had the tape in the wrong way the heads wouldn't line up properly and you'd get the problem with the volume being too quite.

But I also remember having to take them back and trying a couple different brands before I found one that worked with my head deck.

In this case though, the V35 has a factory aux in, just need to get a bit of cable with a headphone jack on one end and wire the other end into the TV tuner in the boot.

Yes full volume on deck and full volume on iphone. I found out the problem is with my phone as i tried with another iphone and it works perfectly. I recommend this option for anyone who wants to spend $10-$15 to play music from your iphone / ipod to your car.

Yeah this one doesnt allow me to flip the tape . But for some reason My iphone wont work properly where everyone else does. So the problem is my iphone not the tape.

Thanks for all your advice.'

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
