I'm planning on using an aftermarket radio, Pioneer avh-p4300dvd and use USDM Steering wheel controls w/ PAC SWI, and maybe adding a bluetooth module to the pioneer, i was hoping that would allow me to use bluetooth and steering controls from the usdm spec steering control buttons and maybe through your kit add cruise control too, does that sound like it would work?

Overall the result will be like having usdm spec v35 :) retaining all the same usage of the steering wheel control, you reckon it will work chris?

the pac peice will need programming. it is also IR based so response will be slower than a direct wire item. . I have sell one that will do a plug in on the radio and auto learn the controls.

the buttons are specific and if you have the WRONG set the cruise unit I use WILL NOT work.

happy to sell you all the bits though and you can pop it all together yourself. saves pying for a full steering wheel. I have a car to do in the morning that is getting exactly this except the radio is a clarion navi.

I'm running the (factory) Japanese audio controls with the PAC SWI-PSv1

(Head unit is a Sony XAV-72BT - Sony and Pioneer use the same PAC kit)

Install is pretty straight forward (though it will be harder for you obviously, but you only connect 3 wires from the standard controls to the PAC interface ( green and red with the resistor values that are marked in the kit, I believe it was 47 ohm and 150 ohm)

Yellow wire goes to ground, and then the PAC interface needs a ground and switched 12 volts

The one I am using plugs in directly to the back of the head unit

    • Hi all. So I have my GTR on the lift and have been working on it a few days and today I unpacked the frontpipe that was wrapped with heat wrap stuff, because part of it was breaking down and soaked in oil. Noticed that the pipe itself does not actually look like a Mines, despite it supposedly being a Mines. But I could not find any fronpipe online that looks exacly like his, and I don't think it is a custom one. My amateur measurement also showed the two pipes are about equal length, so maybe this is just an old version of the Mines pipe? Would appreciate insight on this by the enlightened folks. greetings from Germany
    • Yeah. If I plug the connector in and connect the vacuum lines, I assume worse case scenario is that it simply doesn't work? Yep PFC.
    • I would think that rather than attempting to perform an engine swap, with all the difficulties associated with doing so in a country where the raw materials required are harder to get hold of, I would just build the CA20 for boost, find an EFI manifold for it and either add a turbo or a supercharger. Or both. You replace one set of difficulties with a different set, but I know which would be more fun.
    • Well, a proper aftermarket ECU** SHOULD be set up to run the purge solenoid, same as the factory ECU would, so that the tank breather system continues to operate the way it is supposed to. I have no knowledge of whether the PFC (which is what I assume you mean when you say Apexi) has an output (and internal logic) to run the purge solenoid. If it does not, then given the product design intent for the PFC, which is to be a plug in replacement for the stock ECU, I would consider that a massive failing on Apexi's behalf and would be another reason to think that they were a half-arsed solution to the problem if programmable management on RBs. I would suggest that since Nistune came to market (which is a LOOOOONG time ago now) there has been no valid argument for choosing a PFC, especially if the PFC can't do things like this.   **ie, Haltach, Link, Motec, etc
    • Thanks for asking the question we were all thinking!
