Hi guys'n'gals

Having a little trouble with my head unit in that it won't play my MD's :D - puts up an "Error 17" on my display... anyone come across this on any other Carrozzeria head units?

I did a google search and found this link...

http://www.geocities.co.jp/MotorCity-Race/...1/dekigoto.html

But it's in Japanese, just wondering if anyone is able to decipher what's being said? It seems to mention 'Error 17' but don't know if the problem was solved..

cheers,

chinny

Daniel, that link doesn't give much info at all, and it sounds as though you're having the same problem as me. My Panasonic CD/MD doesn't read MD's 80% of the time and just produces an error message, and when I asked the guy at SuperAB about it he just said it's junk... throw it away and get a new one! Pfffff, typical Japanese response but he's right. Something to do with the optics, is it an old unit? Maybe mid/late 90's?

Yeah, i'm guessing pretty old as it's a 98 car.. umm... got a pic somewhere....

Carrozzeria FH-P7000MD -

Really? So it can't be fixed?? :rofl: I'm one of the few ppl here that has MD's as their portable music of choice, so i got about 30 discs, and was really happy when i was told it was a CD/MD head unit... I'd really like to have the MD option still.... bugger

so the link i posted didn't really resolve the problem at all?

EDIT: Tried about 5-6 discs i reckon? I might just give them all a shot... this is really annoying :(

hehehe, Justin knows well...how do you think Japan is able to sustain it's self driven economy on consumer buying power!

Gohan, I have one of those Carrozzeria 1din MD headunit (opens up to 1.5) with 12 stacker, 3 way rear speakers, front speakers and tweeters...CBF looking up the model number. If your interested make an offer, I've had it new since 2002. I'm looking to replace my sound system with an Apline Headunit+HD and stacker :cheers:.

troy yeah? um... it's tempting because i really would like the MD option. I actually got a 12 stacker as well, which no-one seemed to know about. I picked the car up, opened the boot and go, where'd this come from? So that was a nice little surprise.

I'll have a squizz around the audio shops here, see if they can do anything or what other MD units they got... but if you could get a model number, just so i can look it up a bit, that would be great. I really have no idea what head units and speakers cost.....

      RB20 in need of modest love injection

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.

      RB20 in need of modest love injection

      Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy

      R33 GTR lift points for hoist

      FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart

      I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.

      Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
