If you are going to get a headunit that has an Ipod adaptor for it, I would recommend the alpine over the pioneer..

I have a pioneer 6750 in my car, great unit, but the interface for the ipod is clumsy.. you control it off the headunit - however you have to go through each albumn/playlist one by one - and there is no way to quickly scroll through them..

Great unit for what it is with my ipod just sitting in my glove box.. But just a bit clumsy..

REMEMBER - he must get an adaptor for the aerial socket to convert it from a japanese dual plug to australian single plug.. someone can tell you the part code - they are available from autobarn for about $20 - without it he won't be able to listen to the radio as the antenna won't be plugged in!!..

i hate sony headecks even if they have a slight power advantage THEY ARE SOOOOO UGLY!! sound aint bad but yuk!.

not a fan of alpine because just about every alpine unit looks the same plus my old alpine headunit didnt have a very long life despite its $800 price tag.

this is the bf here, someones been a naughty girl, goin behind my back to get me something, hope u read this as ur very easy to identify. i reckon the alpine if u were wondering and ill try and act surprised when u give it to me.

ps. dans got a good idea :dry:

OMG...caught, so depressing :blink: I guess I should of make it less obvious that it was me lols...any way, from the comments of everyone, I guess now I have the get the system and all this time I thought if he was naughty I could give him some cheap arse present... :wave: , but since his gotten all you guy's backing, I guess I'll have to get him the system...and maybe a bj because I was a little bit naughty :P, if his lucky lols...

Thanks for all the headunit ideas :P and the others...lols

Don't go ebay, support the local car audio industry plus any ebay company offering a warranty will be fixing it themselves, they won't be sending it off to a certified repairer.

Anyway, stick with Eclipse or Alpine and stay away from JBHIFI and Autobarn and stuff - go to a specialist store... at least they know what they are talking about.

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
