IMHO Blaupunkt are a good quality brand.

My headunit is a Blaupunkt florida which i bought second hand in 2000 from Cash Converters for $200 and its still in my car now, working perfectly. Looks better than all those other crap head units out their with their flashy LCD animations and all that...

I would have rated Blaupunkt as pretty good? From what research I was doing, they have a fairly good reputation.

They make some of the "high" end stuff for stock model cars. By aftermarket standards the stock units wouldn't compare... but the aftermarket universal head units and stuff like that apparently are pretty good!

Now... Chris will shoot us all down! ;o)

nah. I'll second the OEM comment though. considering I bought a new combo van and I have no intent of swapping the OEM unit in it (whick is blau.)

the top end gear is great! not flashy as some would like but when it comes to sound - damn good for price.

So that's pretty much what i've been hearing.

I was actually shopping for a Blaupunkt HU when I bought my Skyline, but even eBay had diddly-squat in the way of variety/availability.

Ended up with a Kenwood 5029 something-or-other. Blue lights and flashy facia.

Well, thanks for the input, Chris!

no probs.

blau went back to the specialist only so you wont find a lot of it on ebay.

that said if you wanted a kenwood unit at the time you should have asked me ( I also sell kenwood.)

Chris: cheers for the heads up. I bought the unit about 1.5 years ago now, and didn't know your trade back then =-]

I didn't WANT a Kenwood. But out of the lot it seemed the least flashy, the easiest to press buttons and read display, and had some other features I had to have.

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
