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

    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
