i have a set of sony 3 way 4 inch speaker

i have taken my home stereo speakers to put in the back and i have 2 alpine type R 10's running off a crossfire amp

  • 2 months later...

Atm...

Aiwa MP3/WMA headunit

Nakamichi 12" sub rated at 456 RMS

Rockford Fosgate amp dedicated to sub rated at 429 RMS

Alpine 120RMS 6.5" Splits and JVC 6.5" coax's

Alpine amp under seat for front splits and rear fill JVC's.

Also have waiting to go in...

custom made dash based on an R32 GTSt dash (bit of fibreglass work and stuff)

14" Benq screen, 10 degree viewing angle, 4 sources including DVi.

Xbox, modded with 120gb HDD

Polk Audio Dolby/DTS 5.1 decoder for car audio

HKS Camp ECU Visualisation

Hopefully once the car's mechanicals are finished setting up then I can go about setting up the in car surround sound system for use with the Xbox.

Hey all,

At the moment my specs are these:

Headunit - Panasonic double din with moving facia - cd md and casette

Front speakers - Pioneer 6.5 inch splits

Rear spreakers - Pioneer 6 inch 3 way speakers

Subs - 2 x 10 inch lanzars powered by 2 x 1000 watt Saint USA amplifiers.

DVD - Panasonic single DVD player with dash mounted screen.

Previously

Head Unit: Pioneer DEH-P6050

Front: Alpine 6.5" splits, passive crossovers

Rear: Factory upgrade carbon fibre-look Bose dual cones

Sub: Fusion fpw-1500 DVC 15" sub, custom 85L box, twin 4"x23" ports

Amps: US Audio 4x50W running front splits, Rockford Fosgate 250m² running sub

Power: US Audio amp ran 8 guage wire for both earth and power, and a 40 amp fuse. Going to the Rockford I had 4 guage wire to a 1 farad capacitor, then to a distribution block, which split into 2x 8 guage power wires (dual monoblock amp=two power sources). 2x 8 guage earth wires to the cap, then 4 guage to a rather large earthed bolt. NFI how the stock alternator survived.

Was pretty loud, farkin bassy, and sounded pretty good for a system that cost me under $2k all up, but it wasn't doing clips/screws/interior trim much good, and I had no usable boot space - large power wires and an amp that ran very hot meant that I didn't like piling stuff up on either side of the box. It ended up stretching the shit out of my boot lock so I pulled the sub and Rockford amp out.

Now

Head unit: Pioneer DEH-P6050. Volume buttons worn through

Front: Alpine 6.5" splits. Both have blown voice coils

Rear: Bose rear fill. Fine!

Amp: US Audio 4x50W, still running the fronts

Sub: None, but I have my boot back!

the word that best describes my system is "secondhand" - all of my parts have been bought secondhand. Not quite complete as I'm yet to purchase an amp (Audison SRx3). But so far it consists of:

Source: Sony CDX-M630 (meh)

Splits: Focal Utopia 165W2

Sub: JL Audio 10W3D2

The stuff that's currently installed is Alpine DDDrive 2-ways front and rear, old Alpine tape unit with AInet 6 CD stacker.

What kind of audio systems are you guys driving around with?

STANDARD!! :)

if anyone here wants to unload their old 'double din head unit, ie...single slot cd/radio /tape deck' ........(if it looks nice and works), please pm 'SUPERSPIT'

I will pay a reasonable price!!

Ta, Mark. :)

Last week I installed:

Panasonic CQ-C9800U CD player with 4 x 60w digital amp

Focal 136v polyglass splits (135mm)

Decware DBII 'Deathbox' bandpass woofer box

Sony 10" dual vc ex-plod woofer (used, sounds fine for $100)

The Panny uses Tripath digital chips, and puts out a real 60w rms / channel. The sub box is about 450 x 325 x 325 so it's not small for a single 10, but it does sound good. The box is adjustable (to suit different woofers & cars) so maybe I can build a smaller one that goes in the battery compartment. This system isn't loud; I'm used to 2 x 12's in a 120 l sealed box & 3 big amps. That stuff added a LOT of weight to the ol' VL... I'm not doing that again.

Alpine 7878

JL Audio 500

JL Audio 300/2

JL Audio 300/2

JL Audio 300/2

Nakamichi 300 watt amp

2 12" Boston Acoustics Comp

2 sets 6 1/2" Boston Acoustic Pro Series Components

1 set 6 1/2" Oz Audio Components

1 set 4 1/2" Boston Acoustic Pro Series Components

It sounds pretty good.

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
