Stock R33 System

[IOWNU]

hi All,

I was just wondering what sort of system a stock r33 has.....i dont know if mine is stock or not...the face doesnt look stock.....its a Kenwood System....a button opens the face of the player and reveals the casette player.....

i dont know....but it sounds pretty louds for a standard system.....also i was wondering is there anyway u can convert the jap system to eng system.....or whether u can get FM radio higher than .....90 i think

Thanks

i think you can get the band expanded. Well it was done to mine before i brought it.

I cant remember the brand of mine but it wasn't kenwood thats for sure. I doubt that is the stock headset.

The standard system is a double din setup and is OK, but you need a frequency modulator to get higher than 90 fm. Bloody hard to fit as you need to plug it into the aerial and connect it to power. Easy for the proffessionals, but not for me.

best solution is to get rid of stock setup - it's definetly not a kenwood though..

stock speaker are all 6" clarion's (nothing fancy) and stock headset is a ugly **** tape/radio player

Not all stock systems are Double Din, mine is only one slot (S1). Sounds pretty sh*thouse but. Speakers crackle at the slightest bass... I am used to a decent stereo though, so i can't really judge it.

To get >90Mhz you have to get a frequency modulator as said.... Try Jaycar, but they are $40+ so i'm just going to save for a new head unit.

when i too out my rear speakers they said pioneer but the head unit was stock so i dont think it had been changed

The R33 comes with a whole stack of different face units and speakers across the years, I guess what was available cheaply to nissan at the time. There is no definitive "stock system" on it really.

do a search for "stock system" and it will turn up plenty of interesting setups and brands.

Yea my Kenwood CD/MD player is from japan. YOu just have to install a frequency expander. For example my Fox FM is 81.9 Nova is 81.3 and so on. Lol i was suprised when i got my car because it came with big JBL speakers in the doors and Nice Kenwood rears (which u cant get in australia).

Has anyone fitted a frequency modulator? If so, where did you put it as I have been told by the importer to attach it near the aerial on the rear left of the boot! That area is soooo hard to access and you need tiny hands to get in there. Also, if I attach it close to the head unit, which power wire is the better option? Thanks for any help.

open the carpet with the lil plastic bits.

there are two 'boxes' one is for the power? and the other is to retract the aerial.

undo the bolts on the inside of the trunk, and both shud come out easily.

undo the wiring and the pipe(pipe is connected to aerial retractor, for oil and water

drainage). there's ur aerial and other bit

u can fit it behind the h/e no worries
