Nissan Skyline R32 Antenna

[playboi14]

Hey guys,

Just wanted to know if someone could tell me where exactly is the antenna in an R32 GTST skyline?

There is no generic metal unit like there are in most cars (ones that retract up and down), so I have to assume it is part of the front or rear glass panels?

Would anyone be able to tell me?

The reason I ask is I have a regular CD player in my car, and the radio reception is very strange, some stations are perfect for hours on end, and then some reason sound like static for hours, it also doesn't matter what station, it happens on all of them randomly.

Could it be a dodgy CD player? Old antenna? or a broken or damaged connection along the way to the deck?

Any information would be greatly appreciated guys!

Thanks!

its in the glass of the windscreen.

i have the same problem, apparently someone on here sells a booster/fix for it.

Look at your front windscreen. There should be a thin line going down the middle and around the window. Did you have your front windscreen replaced? Could explain the dodgy reception

My GTE model came with an ordinary antenna at the rear of the car.

This is the result of owning the lower spec model Skyline haha.

rear glass. if you are having reception issues make sure the antenna amplifier is turned on. there is a blk/red wire in the radio harness that needs +12v on it.

quick way of checking this - switch to AM radio. if you have stations then you have other problems.

Hey Guys,

Thanks for the Information.

The front and back windows have never been changed (that I am aware of),

And my front windscreen does have a thin black line right down the middle and around.

Is the antenna in the front or back window? little confused.

I will eventually pull out the deck to make sure everything is plugged in.

Hopefully, its nothing too serious

My brother's R32 GTS-t coupe has the antenna in the front window glass running down the very centre.

hi playboi14,

yes mate the r32 gtst has the antenna in the front windscreen, the line you are looking at in yours is the antenna..........try rewiring the coaxial antenna plug to fix the dodgy reception.

hope this helps
