I just bought one and now i dont know if i actually need it....

If i have an Aussie spec head unit does that mean i should be getting fm if the previous owner hooked it up right? I get no reception so something is obviously up...

I havnt popped the unit out to look but im hearing that there is a dual pin aerial lead, maybe they were too lazy to go buy one when they installed....

you dont need one with the aussie head unit.

Check that the aerial is actually connected up to the head unit. You need to get an adaptor for the aerial plug - most car audio places have them (got one from tonkins a year ago).

The FM expander is only for the jap radio. :huh:

    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
    • For DBA, check out their guide table here. https://dba.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Direct_Replacement-Guide-2021.2.pdf   Additionally they have some other guides and info on how to make sure you choose the right pad.
    • Sorry, just assumed that talk of coloured pads meant EBC red/green/yellow/shit stuff. I don't know the DBA pads, but it's a reasonable bet that they will be OK. DBA make good stuff generally. Those 4000 series rotors I linked to are very good. I may well replace the RDA rotors I have with those when required.
