Back on topic :nyaanyaa:

I picked up a new steering wheel with stereo controls today to replace my worn original. Immaculate condition, very pleased.

Bought from Osakaparts Online in Haberfield.

Was $200. Which I was happy to pay for how good it is.:thumbsup:

Don't know if I can integrate my head unit, but it was the same price without them...

Well considering a used wheel with BOTH remotes are about $100 USD from fleabay:

They can't be TOO dear..

Although I did pay $75 for mine :sleep:

EDIT: Oops thought we're just talking about the remotes...my bad

i just want the controls, im sure i can just make it work..

shoulda stolen my sisters Steering wheel aswell.. lol

yup need an adaptor to work with all head units (mine included) but the instructions didnt mention that lol

there is an adaptor on ebay for about $120 supporting nissans and most aftermarket head units

if your going an after market headunit it wont work wouldnt it?

My Eclipse is compatible with steering wheel controls as well so there must be a few options out there.

Which Eclipse did you get? AVN726EA?

Yep, that's the one. Put in by previous owner (well he got pro's to do it) & I'm glad I didn't have to pay for it as it's bloody expensive. There's even a sub in the back (same spot as the factory Bose goes - hey, poet & didn't know it :rolleyes: ) & the sound is pretty darn good.

If I was starting from scratch I'd either do a carputer or probably a much cheaper brand double DIN (Chinese fleabay special haha) as I couldn't justify spending that much on something that didn't make the car go faster/handle better/more economical.

Hehe...I understand...

I've got one of those installed in my wife's Mitsi Grandis...not too bad...but I thought the AV side was kinda spartan (no avi/wmv playback via USB, etc) and the BT support was kinda flakey...

the Nav system is pretty sweet though.

Wouldn't have gotten it if i had to pay full price, that's for sure!

I reckon there are much better buys out there, that's for sure. I have mine displaying GPS 98% of the time & playing music from USB or Ipod. I've never tried playing movie files (I guess I can use the TV tuner for that) & I've had similar erroneous performance with BT as well. The other thing is I can't get some DVDs to play because of their menu structure, so it's probably great value for <$700-$800 but otherwise I'd buy something else.

Pretty flash for a people mover tho :happy: .

    • AFM looks to be a z32 The injectors maybe old Nismo 555cc The turbo tag when looked up seems to be a gt2871 , imagine it would have the bigger rear housing .82 all look like the mid 00's mods when he started building it up. Vac hose seems right but would need to see a diagram. Great work going up there and sorting it out, be a good club car for someone wanting a good reliable rig.  I know I would like to have it but no space and too many other race cars at the moment.
    • Heys guys I got a r32 gtst speedo is out by 10kph seems the faster I go the more it be out  just seeing if anyone else had to problem and knows how to fix it 
    • I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better. 
    • 2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)
    • OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
