Hey all,

My Series II has a tape deck in it =\ and as far as I know there was also a single DIN CD player option, is this correct? If so does anyone wanna sell me their old one? I'm not right into stereos but a CD player would be nice. Anyone know if the AM/FM on them requires a band expander? Also does the factory unit read CD-R's and RW's? Lastly, does someone have the factory front and rear speakers they wanna get rid of? Mine is missing the fronts and the rears have child restraints drilled through them from compliance... :(

Cheers =D

Man...

Best off buying a decent CD player new. If not, you'll need a frequency converter for the radio on a Jap unit.

Dunno about the CDR, but my old old old Kenwood deck did. Buy a new deck and then you don't need to worry.

Factory speakers... if anyone changed them like I did, they got thrown in the bin ASAP. The rears, unfortunately, always get drilled through in compliance, so I doubt you'd source them. New 6.5" speakers should fit in there with no modification. If you consider this option, take the grille off (i'm guessing that you'll be removing the child-restraint bolts if you're changing the speaker), and remove the speakers before you go shopping. Ask the sales guy if you can sit the new speaker in to see if it fits up nicely.

Oh... I've never heard of a single-din CD in the R33's... I bought an aftermarket pocket, but the Pulsar pockets (new) are nicer.

Don't really wanna have to spend $200 on new deck when I know I could get a decent 2nd hand one for much much less. Plus I'd really like a black head unit and 99% of anything new is silver or at least not black =\. I wasn't sure if there was a single DIN CD player factory or not, but I remember when I was looking for my car that I test drove a few that had Nissan Single DIN unit's in them. Mine has the single DIN tape deck and a fold open compartment that I'll be putting a timer in for a nice tidy look.

Surely someone kept the factory speakers?

=)

Dan... that's what I was getting at. A new, plain black CD player (no mp3) shouldn't cost $200, and my last (old old old) Kenwood was bought for $50 from Cash Converters. I had that for 6 years, and it was kinda old when I bought it!

A nice second hand one will prolly cost you the same as a frequency converter! (if you ever find a factory single-DIN cd player).

Anyhoo... go for a used deck mate, and some decent used speakers. I recken you could do it all for $200-$250 if you install it yourself. (PM me if you are, I have a guide)

      Misfire/stalling issues

      By Chris_Guthrie · Posted

      Any recommendations on a decent replacement manifold that doesnt break the bank or require additional mods for the stock turbo setup? I figure if I'm going to pull the manifold off anyway to fix the studs might as well replace it.

      So I checked the turbo out today. Very minimum play at all just enough for the oil to take up when it's running. I did find an exhaust leak at the manifold. 1 stud all the way in the front is missing and the one all the way in the back is broken off. Front has visible signs of an exhaust leak. I'll fix that soon but that's not my problem still.  I also found that the nipple coming off the turbo had the hose capped off and a hose ran from the j-pipe by the bov going to the wastegate. I removed that hose and capped that nipple and put the turbo nipple hose back on the wastegate.  There was a ton of oil residue all through the charge side of the intercooler piping going to the throttle bodg. I'm thinking that's from the pcv. Doesn't seem to be coming from the turbo that was all clean on the pipes side.  Haven't had a chance to check fuel pressure yet, haven't had time been having to pull a lot of doubles at work. I did pick up some carb cleaner to clean the iacv but wanted to make sure I had a fresh gasket in case the old one rips when I pull it off.  I'm waiting on a MAF that was supposed to be here today but delayed to Monday. Have a double Monday and Friday and work all of next weekend so going to try to find some time in the middle of the week to try that out. Did about a 10m trip around the block today and towards the end the issues were coming back. Fingers crossed on this MAF but if not just going to throw a fuel pressure gauge in and see where I'm at.  Did notice today that I can definitely hear the injectors pulsing. Very audible clicking coming from them. Assuming that's normal? Should also mean CAS is functioning somewhat properly. After it warmed up when I started it the intermittent misfires came in again. Did start doing that before it was fully warmed up.

      This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O

      Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though.
