ANybody know about the pocket - close to $40 is too much

hey ben, before u ask AGAIN :lol: i have had a look at a few different pockets and all nissan ones i have seen seem to bolt on in the same places. best bet would be go to a wrecker a get one from a recent as possible pulsar.

Thanks Siks - Im going to pull it apart today and put the new deck in then add a pocket to suit.

Cheers! :)

you have to put the pocket in at the same time as you put the cd player in, because you have to pull everything apart again if you want to put a pocket in later (like me!) :angry:

If interested, I wrote up a guide VERY similar to this one, but possibly with more pics and a bit more detail. (and removing wiring)

The pics will be horribly slow because it's got a slow connection.

Link works now :)

Funny thing is my fascia fits whenthe side metal backets are on...however when I go to install it the skyline instrument surround won't go down over it (So I guess my unit must be sitting further out in relation to the bracket causing this fouling. Maybe I'll see if there is another spot I can screw it into. Only other option is to chisel out the fascia but in my case so it sits over the top of the black skyline insrument surround...

Good guide there!

Ah, then use this guy's guide, and simply drill some new holes in the bracket a bit further BACK, so the HU facia can sit behind the instrument surround. Should look very tidy if you do that =-]

I was going to do this before I read this guys article, but I needed to bring it back about 2mm... you can't really drill a hole 2mm back, so my only option was to widen the holes horizontally, much like the CD-ROM screw-holes in a PC case for adjusting the depth of the CDROM. Trimming a little of the facia was heaps quicker.

I just went to Nissan and got a brand newie pulsar pocket - fits nicely - other nissan ones may have fit but couldndnt be bothered checking.

$33 - a lot for a bit of plastic but looks good now.

Though while Im at it I've decided to peel all the rubber/silicone coating off the dash surround and paint it. I'm going to use Matt Black paint ($3 at pig W). The paint I have gives a textured type feel. I did the drivers side power window surround about 6 months ago - looks good and has held up to the test of time so far.

I peeled all the material off - used a bit of thinner - the occasioinal rough up with the file to disturb it and fingers to get it all off.

The vents dont seem to come out easy - there is one sort of rivet type screw to stop you taking these out - Might tape them up before the spray

Thanks guys!

PS Is it an easy fix while I have everything off to stop the air con click clicking when you change temp and at random times?

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
