Im looking at installing a new stereo system in my stagea this week and have a few questions before I get started

I have the xanavi nab screen and cassette player setup at the moment, anyone have a wiring diagram for the plug into the cassette player or do aerpro or anyone make a conversion harness that fits?

It also has factory tweeters in the a pillars, how do you get to them? Do the grills pop off and unscrew the tweeter with the trim still on or do I have to pull off the big a and b pillar trim pieces?

I got a set of 6.5" alpine speakers to go in, do they fit into the factory speaker pods ok or is a little modification required

Cheers, James

If you have the standard speakers in the doors you will need to make or buy spacers because the originals are all one piece (speaker and spacer). Also in the DIY section you will find the wiring diagram, I used it last week to put in my stereo and woked a charm.

I just tried to install a kenwood into my 1999 W34 S2 stagea using a SCOSCHE 1995-UP Car Stereo Connector but when I plugged it in, no power. It seems the wiring harness is different does anyone have a pinout for the stereo connectors?

Thanks in advance!

    • Pete knows these cars well, he does my car too, if he was concerned about the traction arm length for your use he would have said so. Do you have adjustable bushes in that arm, maybe he got enough adjustment there (or maybe the bump steer was not material for your use of the car)
    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
