dude did the unit you bought of this seller come with the ipod cable or do i have to source that somewhere else? because i thought it was included

no it wasnt included.. ive got an ipod FM transmitter anyways so it serves the purpose.. besides the aux in port is in teh rear for this one so bit of a bitch finding a good place to dock the ipod. still i reckon its worth the price without the ipod cable.. if i am not mistaken u can get them off ebay for $35 for so.

I'm in some serious need of help in regards to buying speakers for my R33, as I simply understand nothing about car audio. I also dont want to spend much money

I currently have sitting around:

JL Audio W6 sub (boxed)

Audiobahn A4075HCT amp (4ch, 4x75wRMS, 2400w ACH power)

Sony Xplod head unit (not sure what model cost about $800 3.5 years ago)

I need to buy some speakers (front and rear) to go with ths setup, and I have no idea which ones to go for. But I would like to keep the stock mounting point, no bulges or anything. I use to have some MB Quarts speakers before but not anymore.

Please give me your ideas on speakers, also what they would cost.

Got a question. Iv got component speakers for the front, and normal speakers for the back, all 6 inch. Got a sub and a monoblock amp also, all soundstream. I need an amp i guess for the speakers. Question is :

1) Can i connect the component speakers to the amp or no need ?

2) what type of amp do i need, in terms of 2 channel, 4 channel ? and how many watts am i looking at. I prefer a soundstream amp also.

hey guys,

Lookin at buying a soundsytem when i sell my car and get a new one. Lookin at either Soundstream or Rockford Fosgate. Wanting to do the whole car in one brand including: 2x 12" subs and of course the amplifier, 2x 6x9's in parcel shelf, and 6.5's in the doors with tweeters. looking at around 400RMS per sub. wanting really good quality loud music with some good bass, haha u know what i mean. any input or other recommendations would be great, so let me know what u think :D.

go infinity.. you wont go back.. it goes really loud but clean sound..

make sure is the top of the range..

you rekon thats better quality than top soundstream or rockford? price range is high so throw me any brands :D

Challenge for those in the stereo know.

I am after a in built GPS with flip out screen + CD etc. Pioneer make as good one but it is 2 DIN size.

I need one only 1 din size. I've found Ebay no name ones, but map updates are most important adn so is quality.

Any suggestions?

cant do flip out easily as one unit. pioneer have just release the AVICHD3 that does EVERYTHING.

in kenwood - the flipout screen and GPS module would be the go. not much change from $3k for the D3 and $2.3k for the kenwood setup.

steer clear of ebay :)

so what budget, car and music do I have to work with here. how loud do you want/listen to it.

I can do a RF system that will knock you socks off but you need to give me a starting point. suggestions would be at least $3k to do it right.

im jus curious to see what people's opinions are on the Best quality sound that will really pump. i have a cousin who can get me what i want, so pretty much any brand at any price to go in my R33. probably leaning towards soundstream cause it looks better, and has the good sound. thanks though, i appreciate ur help

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
