Delema...

Car has a CD player and a cassette/stacker. now the cd shows stuff (buttons) on the TV and the volume is on the cassette unit. I has an Alpine touch screen TV all in one from my last car.

My delema is I either disconnect the CD and cassette and have 2 dins spare then put my alpine in and have 1 spare.And thats counting on it fitting because the 34 has a slopey design and the top CD player sticks out a lot. I did actually get the TV to play movies via an external NTSC source but thats a bit gay.

Whatabout the soarers I heard the TV can be converted for TV signal.

Has anyone put a unit in before?

it sort of looks like this.

Not too sure what you're asking? I have got a 1 DIN sized CD/DVD/MP3 player in the top slot and a map pocket in the 2nd DIN slot.

I have my DVD player connected to the MFD via the simple modification you can do but my DVD player can output NTSC or PAL regardless of the DVD region. But yeah I hardly ever use it.

As for converting the MFD to receive aussie TV signals i dont think its possible or worthwhile. As far as I know the TV button isn't anything to do with receiving Jap TV at all and simply a toggle switch to go from MFD to NTSC input mode for things like sat nav, and other AV factory options.

no pics on me at the moment unforunately but there are no gaps at all. You will find that all aftermarket CD players come with little plastic surrounds that can be modified pretty easily if you find that there are some gaps. The way the R34 dash is designed tho the brushed aluminium covers the gaps up quite well.

And yeah, I can watch DVD's through the factory monitor. This requires a small amount of modification to the MFD. You have to pull it apart and solder two wires to various pins and mount an RCA socket on the back of it. Very simple to do.

mine has the TV button on the cd player. is that a hassle?

Is your's a Vspec? This mod only works for MFD's with TV buttons on the MFD itself as far as i know. This is my interior before I put an aftermarket CD player in:

That top "CD player" is a sat nav system :rofl: The CD drive is for the map CD/DVD. Its a bummer too because you cant make it work in Australia (the nav) and it kinda clutters up your dash.

One option would be to pull the unit out and get the non-nav climate control unit from Yahoo Japan auctions - then you get more space for your audio gear. I see them go pretty cheap occasionally.

hey guy! im interested to know what sort of ball park figures did it cost you's to import ur 34 gtr's?  

Cheers

Well i imported mine before import duty changed to 10% (was 15%) and when the aussie dollar was a bit weaker against the yen so it's not really relevant how much it cost to import.

I can tell you tho that there are a few more issues when importing a car worth over $60k like extra stamp duty and Luxury car tax that many "import cost calculators" dont take into account, then there's compliance cost blowouts like stock parts, and brembo brake pads.

It's not easy to have a good condition no accident damaged car landed and complied under $70k - then you gotta pay rego and stamp duty...

    • You have the option to do this. Nobody but me ever did this (go slower, I mean) Everyone seems to fall victim to "This would be a great setup for you, but for me, I need a little more power..."
    • Save yourself the headache of an alarm. Immobilizer on the signal side of the main EFI relays so it won't start is good enough. DIY killswitch is the same thing except instead of a nice passive system you need to remember to switch it on and off.
    • Yeah, the advent of canbus was supposed to cut down on wiring weight, then some bright marketing wonk says "oh, look at all these wonderful tech gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some arsehole safety legislator says "oh, look at all the wonderful surveillance and tracking gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some dipshit young engineer who has grown up thinking that an extra 500000 lines of code is not a problem because storage is cheap these days says "oh look at all this wonderful shit I can do to one up those dipshit arsholes over at VW" and the Karens of the world all go "oh look at all these fancy things I can do on my screen (so long as I am not driving on a bumpy road wherein touch screens immediately become the single most stupid shit idea ever shoveled into a car) and my 19 zone airconditioning keeps my sweaty fat folds a bit less damp and the windows close themselves because I'm too fat and lazy to wind them up for myself and these reversing sensors would have been great if I'd paid attention to them instead of smashing them on the bollard while I was reversing and staring fixedly forward that day I went to pick up little Charlize from ballet" and the sweaty mongoloids who say "oh this wonderful collision avoidance technology with these 45 excellent radar antennae scattered across the front of my car mean I can tailgate like a methed up tradie at full speed with no fear because the car and the 35 airbags will protect me if it all goes wrong" ...... </shallistopranting?>
    • There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day.
