  1. I bought a kenwood 10 disc mp3 stacker about 2 months ago, which decodes by itself, and runs through the head unit, which isnt mp3 capable Ill find the model number if you're interested Cost about $530 for the stacker and $200 for the head unit I gave up trying to find a stacker that would suit my stock head unit, and that was my best value for money option in the end, save going for an fm modulation unit, but the sound quality is better out of the kenwood head unit anyways, plus the stock didnt have a line out to feed my subs Enjoy!
  2. 450kms is about my average before the fuel light comes on. on 95 ron too, sometimes 98, doesnt seem to make a big difference. Im normally changing gears at about 4,000 so nothing too hard But hey, fuel economy is second to the driving, would you trade your skyline for anything less?
  3. Not a problem your in under the 21 question limit Bit of story, still in the writing Springs have lowered the car about 4cm at the front and about 3 at the back, my car was sitting about 2cm higher at the front on the standard, so its less pronounced now. Handled really well for the first few minutes of street testing, corned really firmly and wasnt much rougher on the ride, and then I hit a snag. My front right shock had somehow become damaged when the new spring was fitted, and she was leaking oil profusely, end result, slippery tyre, and no damper on corners. Nursed it back to the workshop and found this out. Soooooo I have just had new shockies ordered for the front, which may or may not raise or lower the height again. Labour is an odd one, my springs set me back $350, and standard labour was going to be $220 ($55/hour, front brake pad change as well) I am however having now to pay for new front shocks, which are being fitted without labour costs. I just hope they arrive soon, so I can have my car/life back.
  4. Hey Greg The Kings i just had fitted were ordered in for GTST, and fit fine. Just off to pick my car up now in fact. Every other brand i looked at only had two options, GTS or GTR, first time Ive seen three
  5. I only get the noise for about the first 5 minutes of driving, before and after cat&exhaust Seems to go away by the time engine heats up Maybe we should all fit turbo timers /joke
  6. From what Ive read all it does it reset the timing. Supposed to retard the timing by a bit if it detects detonation, doesnt do anything to AFRs from what I understand. It cant hurt mind you. Also, have you tried going back to the stocko airbox? might be a problem with the pod (theory of first thing to make it worse, may be the only thing) just a thought
  7. Cat doesnt help, just fitted a new 2.5" hi flow and there's no different to it on my car, pretty much same noise, just louder now not the desired effect i know
  8. Must be fun trying to change the battery in your car Damn thats one intense install, howsit sound?
  9. =) Exhaust is on, and sounds as great as was expected. I have only really noticed a drop in revs for my normal crusing speeds, and a heck of a lot better response into 3rd and 4th. All in all, very nice. Springs have been put back to tuesday as they are coming from over east, and the first order is "missing"
  10. Heya greg springs are being fitted on thursday, so I will let you know how she goes then. I have driven a friends line with just kings in, on standard shocks, and it was fairly firm, and not too bumpy, but handled better again, thankfully my shocks are in really good knick according to pedders, so I should be able to get a bit more out before i get some shocks to match. Exhaust&Cat are being fitted tomorrow. I got a price of $540 for a 2.5" hi flow cat&pipe&muffler and quality too (gotta love knowing the right people) I was waiting on the extractors but they're gonna take another 2 weeks and i wont have any free time then, so that will be later still SAFC is awaiting install an tuning, but dont wanna do that until the extractors are on. $$ took a little longer than expected to come in, but this is my big week for getting stuff done. Cheers
  11. Yep, trent_tr5 has it Lowest frequency to highest = left to right if you want more bass, up the left side, more mid range, up the middle, more trebble, up the right Easy! Realistically you could get better sound than people with just a bass - mid - trebble control, because you can choose your cut offs, anyways, just play around til it sounds right for your music
  12. Hey PVA, you keep mentioning this Blitz NA ECU and I cant find em anywhere... Any specs/details where to buy info on it?
  13. So you're telling me you can get an R33 GTS imported from Japan now and complianced?
  14. From what I understand R33 GTS's arent being complianced anymore, at least not in WA. You're best looking at private sales, there is a for sale section here. Dealers are likely to charge about $16k, too much in my opinion. Best idea would be to have a good read through the NA section, and you'll find specs and mod suggestions. As you're new too, Ill say it first, the SEARCH button is your best friend in here, pretty much most things have been asked once or twice already. Edit: Have removed prev. comment until cleared up. Thanks
  15. Hey no worries, as long as im not being hijacked by people complaining about something, its all good. Will PM BATMBL then, and see what he has avail. Cheers Greg
