Hi all,

I need to replace my crappy car stereo and ideally I would like to find a black stereo with red lights ( to match the dash lights) that also has aux in the back.

The Sony's entry models would do just fine except that nowadays they all come with front aux.

So if you have an old unit preferably Sony hat has BUS-IN or CD-IN RCA ports I would like to hear from you!!!

I have been looking on ebay and gumtree but cannot seem to find any....

I need this unit so I can hook it up to a Eximus 7 inch Android Tablet.

if you DO find one look for a XA107 to match it. you will need that to get aux audio into it.

I would look at pioneer myself and change the LED that lights the dispaly. they have rear aux.

Thanks for your help!

I'll keep an ete out for one of those as well....

cheers

I got a Pioneer DEH-P8100BT a few weeks back. It's a 2009 model, but you might be able to pick one up on eBay second hand. It's got 2 rear usb inputs, as well as bluetooth and 3 rca pre-outs, so it's a pretty nice little unit

I used to have an Alpine X-001, which was iPod/USB only, that had the option of blue buttons/screen or red.

Now I have a Pioneer similar to the DEHP7150UB, which is black and red, fits the M35 dash quite well.

some of the new pioneer double Din units allow you to custom match the LED colours - so using RGB LED's, you can adjust the levels to create literally any colour in the world so will match any dash perfectly. pretty cool!

I have an Eclipse something.. It's a few years old, but has rear aux in, plus rear USB and ipod connector and Bluetooth. You can select the colour, so I always set it to red. I'm really happy with this head unit. I've had it 3 years now and it's worked faultlessly. Has 3 RCA 5V pre-outs, too. Heaps of features..

stuff the lights go for the sound...you wont think damn i wish i bought the louder speaker not the red lights !!!

I went F N nuts on my Stezza...as I have dont in all my cars i love my sound lots and lots...like in my house..lounge..bedroom...outback..bathroom..total love it...

go for the sound not the look...if people go wow your system looks amazing ..then you turn it on and OH :O "my stock vz system sounds beta" you would be spewing..

Then it looks ok but you can $$$ it and they are like that looks ok but my mate has one thats looks fullllllyyyyyy,,,,then you turn the beast on and blow then thru da roof and down the street... lol ;)

    • Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers  
    • This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?  
    • Sorry for reviving an old post, but I'm having the same hot idle tick issue. Did anyone ever find out what it was?  I have checked/ replaced Injectors Coils checked Lifter clerance (is at zero) Checked Cam lobes Replaced exhaust gasket and studs Would appreciate any advice this is driving me nuts  
    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
