Want to know if i can add a line-in input into a stock R33 GTS headunit, It has the normal radio and the cd changer/minidisc headunits (so doubel din)... don't use the minidisc one ever, so wondering if its possible to use that somehow...

Or do minidisc line in adapters work? Like how you can get tape ones....

show me the unit pls. it can be done on some of them.

why dont you just use a fm convertor that will will effectively give you RCA aux in thru one of your fm stations 89.1 or something.

Cheap, easy and done many times with no problems.

most fm transmitters sound pretty crap, plus then u gotta worry about batteries unless it runs off the cig lighter. then you got cables goin everywhere.

the ones in the cig lighter are crap, correct.

There is another type that is hardwired into the antenna line and powered directly off the car. Most commonly used in dm stackers and now in dvd systems into car with no aux in you get very little loss of sound and none of the drama with the cheap crap cig lighter type ones.

Cool, i didnt know these existed... how much do they roughly cost?...

You can get them from any car audio shop really, mines worth $80 which is quiet good, best you get one like what frx026 said it usually eliminates external noise cos its going straight through your antenna as apposed to one that sends a frequency. If you shop around you can get a cheaper one but best you get a higher quality one cos you'll get the buzzing noise comin through the stereo speakers. We use to use them mainly for roof mount screens and stuff. Thats what i'm using for my ipod in my car, it'll do the trick for your application.

Yeah we already have one of the FM transmitter ones, which is a pain because its battery and crap quality.. hence why looking for a Line in input...

I'll get a photo of the unit for you Chris.... otherwise i may look into the hard wired antenna type.. any particular models or where to get them?

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
