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.

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
