Hi All,

I am looking for a Car Audio & Security installer in VIC, if anyone can please suggest or recommend an installer and especially with V35 experience. You can post on this thread or private message me, it would be very much appreciated. FYI, I am currently looking at Street Sound & Vision (SSV) in Thomastown...

Cheers,

I already gave you a lead in boronia. can give you a second in moorabbin if need be. shame I'm not in town or I would do the car myself.

That would be awesome if you were coming down in the near future, I can wait till then... I rather have someone with extensive experience dealing with V35's touching my car.

I'm planning to put in a new sound system as well, so just trying to suss out SSV cause they gave me a very good deal for a system and I put a deposit on it, which I should have waited... :unsure:

Thanks for the referrals guys!

Just got my gtr done with a full system and very complicated immboliser, got it back last night and he did an immaculate.job, he lives in templestowe and his got awsome prices. Pm me if your interested

FYI

turbo timers and remote starts are a defect in australia

As many threads will already state - turbo timers are illegal to use in Australia. Just drive slow for the last coupla minutes of the journey and let it cool down. For reference:

ADR 25: Turbo timers are not to be fitted to vehicles manufactured on or after 1 January 1972 (ADR 25 Anti-Theft Locks). ADR 25 requires that the normal function of the engine only occurs when the ignition lock is in the engine on position.

That basically covers both turbo-timers and remote start - in each case, you have the normal function of the engine with the ignition lock isn't engaged.

I just had my stereo installed by riverside customs in werribee. I am no audio expert but they did a really good job in my opinion really neat work and they didn't take any shortcuts they take their time and make up all their own spacers etc.. They are apparently one of the few installer in Melbourne that still specialize in large fiberglass custom installs. Anyway I had installed a kenwood ddx8036bt headunit, alpine type X components, Polk 500.4 amp and morel rears. What really impressed me was that when I went to pick the car up they told me they dropped a bit of solder on the driver side scuff panel and it had made a mark. They told me they had fixed it best they could and had ordered me a new replacement one. I couldn't believe it when I had a look as I could not see anything even when it was pointed out to me. In my book that alone makes them someone worth talking to as I think it is so hard finding honest people that will do a good honest job these days. I will definitely go back to these guys in the future and they are worth speaking to if you live out west.

WOW! Nice, that is good service there! I did come across Riverside Customs when I was initially quick searching... I'm just not sure what to do, cause I went into SSV to have a look and suss them out, the guy gave me a good deal for an Alpine package (of Type S: 5 Channel Amp, Sub, Components & Coaxials and IVA-W520EBT) for $1700, a saving of $1100 and so I put down a $100 deposit to secure the equipment. I wonder if that's too good to be true, but I'm going to ask to upgrade to the Type R at an additional amount. :glare:

Hey everyone, Tried finding a more recent thread with no luck...

Basically my old R34 got stolen right out the front of my house in mid September this year (no alarm in it like a dumbarse because i thought i lived in a quiet/nice area).

I'll be picking up my new 34 sometime next week and really want to get an alarm system fitted fairly soon

Some points to note:

  • Located in the Northern Suburbs of Melbourne (South Morang)
  • Not sure what the "normal" price range is for something like this, but would be willing to go around the $450 mark (Edit: Am flexible on price as i'd rather spend extra for a good alarm install than a better sound system)
  • Alarm system will have to adhere to the Australian/NZ standard so the insurance company is happy.

Would like some advice on shops to go to or even feedback if the ones mentioned above were good or not?

Any help would be awesome!

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
