carozzeria head unit -> pioneer stacker ??

[SteveL]

My R32 GTR came in from Japan fitted with a carozzeria MEH-P9000CD head unit which work fine (needs a band expander, of course). The japanese owner had taken out the CD stacker from under the passenger seat, but the wiring is still all there. I basically only listen to CD's, so I'm wondering whether I can just plug in a pioneer cd stacker - although if anyone has a suitable carozzeria unit lying around....

TIA

Yep, with the pioneer range, you need to make sure the stacker is in the "P" range, if you know what I mean... just make sure the stacker has a P in it

i wonder if a carrozerria ipbus works with pioneer ipbus

yes they are the same product really. carrozerria is japanese pioneer domestic

i had a carrozerria deh990 with an ipbus socket and a cdrb20 ipbus from pioneer and it worked, the cdrb20 (haha no its not an rb20det) converts the ipbus to stocker rca in plugs. so in theory if you find a stakcer that is ipbus (i think like 95% of them would be) then it should be fine. i dont think they do many fm modulated stackers?

Yepp, it works.

That's what I'm doing in the Stagea at the moment. Carrozerria head deck with a Pioneer CD Stacker plugged into it via the ipbus.

Works perfectly.

Thanks guys....some of what your talking about is a bit like decyphering Japanese to me but can I assume that p-bus and ip-bus are similar interchangeable, etc ??

If it's the same plug then wack her in and see if it works That's what I did anyway

Well yes, but I don't actually have a stacker at the moment. I want to be sure it will work before I buy, thus the reason for the original q

Ahh, cool. No problems.

I think I've got a diagram of the pinouts somewhere if that helps any ?

Anything like that will help (my e-mail below). I've downloaded the manual for my HU from the Pioneer Japan website but it's all in Japanese of course , still there's enough pictures included for me to work out most things.

No problem. I'll need an email address though. Drop me a PM with it if you like.
