Hey guys, I'm new to all this car audio so I was looking to get some opinions on a little upgrade I want to do.

Currently the car has a cheapo pioneer head unit and some sony 6" 4ways which I installed a couple of weeks back because I was sick of the stock speakers. The front doors already have dampening in them so I don't have to worry about that.

I really just want to add a bit more bass and a iphone friendly head unit for now but I'm not sure on what path to take.

I have been looking at this for the head unit (maybe the version with bluetooth).

Not sure what head unit you are talking about there :S

I picked up a nice JVC unit the other day from SuperCheap Auto that has exactly what you are looking for.

Ipod control + bluetooth (including a microphone for hands free for your mobile).

Supercheap had it for $90 off making it close enough to $250. Was the best option when looking at all the other contenders in the $250 margin.

I'm sure you can find better, but it was a great option for a quick purchase and build.

Yeah I was eyeing off that head unit something cronic, I love the idea of putting the MP3 player inside the head unit, especially since I don't use it for cds.

Eventually got the JVC I linked earlier and ran a usb cable to the din holder I installed below it. Basically the same thing, just nowhere near as cool.

      Nope. The seal is in the drive. A new cable would just fill up and continue to convey oil to the speedo head. To check if this is what is happening, take the cluster out, dismantle the speedo and have a look. You probably don't even have to dismantle it. If there is oil coming up the cable, the drive into the speedo will be grossly greasy. I had to manually (and delicately) clean the gunk out of my speedo.

      Thanks for the quick response mate, and I agree Nismo 555s, Z32 and high flow 2871 in OP6 housing (run by PowerFC) would all be "period correct" and should be a simple, reliable and reasonably quick track car.

      It is normal for a speedo to read 0-10% high (unfortunately), intended by manufacturers and ADRs (although not in this case) to ensure your speedo does not read low if your tyres are worn. Speaking of which, what size tyres do you have on the rear, and what does they tyre placard say you should have? you can use this https://tiresize.com/calculator/ to determine what % difference that is causing Personally, when I buy tyres for a car I buy a size that will bring the speedo back to being more accurate; it if it reads 5% high I buy tyres that are 5% larger diameter. If you had an electronic speed sender like R33 onwards, the other option is to add a speedo adjuster but that won't work in R32. Finally, you  might be able to find a different sized gear for the speedo sender but that will be limited to what already exists (and I don't know what sizes do)

      OK...so dumb question to check....do the hi beams actually come on when the push the stalk to engage them (keeping in mind your headlight switch must be at ON as well)
