Any car audio shop should sell them eh! We have them at work for NZ$15

You can cut it and add the 'normal' end on, but you will notice there are two aerial wires going into the nissan aerial plug. You need to select the correct one. Its usually the wire with a small bit of rubber around it right at the base of the plug. If ya have a look you will see what I mean! :cheers:

Also if you dont join it correctly, you will lose all reception.

For those who don't live around the corner from Chris the easiest adapter to find is the Aerpro AP348A which is available anywhere they sell Aerpro products.

Also, for the R32, not sure if R33/34s are the same. If your not using a Nissan adapter to wire the power and speakers for the new headunit, make sure you connect the power-antenna output (usually the blue wire) to the black/red wire in the centre pin of the factory headunit plug. This powers the factory antenna signal booster.

There is another black/red wire next to it but it's a speaker wire.

booster,

I'll ship these things via mail order so its not a problem

same goes for the early nissan harness adapters. (I'm a Aeropro dealer..)

good point in the antenna amp. I have found a LOT of people miss this one. FM works partially but AM won't.

yes that is right most audio place do sell the adaptor cause nissan maximas have the same set up .. but i must stress one think if you get you windows tinted make sure that you get non matalic film on rear screen because your fm antenna is in the rear screen .. and i tint cars for a living

so if i have a japanese kenwood head unit that only picks up fm to 90.0 and am radio this type of adapter will let me pick up fm radio??? and will it be on the normal channels on there?? like say b105 will be on 105.3?? bcoz i heard they are set up to get u the station but ten numbers down the line so b105 will be 90.5?? but this couldnt be right hey??

my headnuit isnt a stock nissan 1, its an aftermarket japanese kenwood head unit, reasonably new aswell. just that it cant pick up any radio stations after 90.0 on fm frequency. the only thing i can lsten to is jjj and it sucks ass, or am radio. will this converter fix my problem or should i just get a new head unit that is australian spec??

    • I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.
    • Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.
    • Yeah that's what I meant, permanently connected not manual
    • Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.
    • There was a good video somewhere, maybe Kurzgesagt that linked physical activity to ADHD/Anxiety/Insomnia etc. Basically the body WILL spend energy doing something if you don't spend it doing anything physical. It isn't fun, but I personally have noticed I've never been overthinky, or unable to sleep if I'm physically exhausted from doing a lot. The musings around it seem to indicate that this is one of the reasons/mechanism that physical activity improves mental health/wellbeing etc, by more or less not using that 'extra' energy to overthink, be anxious, inflammation, etc. There's also the fact that every obnoxious exerciser ever says it's great and helps which is extremely annoying. Like people who say the same thing about travel being the best thing ever. I mean, they clearly are, but blah. I started doing a LITTLE myself (think 3x15min per week) and honestly did notice the benefits, aiming at life quality when older. Which is sooner than you think. Getting something into your routine that you can actually make a routine has helped me at least. This post brought to you by procrastination between sets.
